She was very good as Carmela’s snobbish mother.

I remember Carmella accusing her mother of saying, when Meadow was born... "Oh, she's so... dark."
For those unfamiliar, this was because Carmella accused her mother of being ashamed of their Italian heritage and spending a lifetime trying to cover it up (with quotes like "telling Aunt Rose you were glad DeAngelis didn't end in a vowel.") Suzanne Shepherd stood out in the Sopranos episode where this all came to a head - which I believe was the big family barbeque episode (the title of which I don't remember).
