1/10/1999 The Sopranos start singing

January 10, 1999.  On this day  one of HBO's greatest hits began.  The Sopranos was the first cable show to be nominated for the Emmy for best drama - and it was nominated every year it was on.  It received 111 nominations over all and won 21 of them.  Then producer David Chase wrote a final episode that ticked every off.

  1. O.K. my math isn't up to date but how can you win 21 of 11?

  2. Right you are, Gran. It was 111 nominations. I have corrected it.
