The Many Saints of Newark is a prequel story set in the Sopranos universe, albeit about 30 years earlier than where the series began.

When a show has as devoted a following as The Sopranos does, any new related project faces a mountain of unrealistic expectations.
That said, there are a number of scenes in Many Saints that almost seem gift-wrapped for fans, a way of saying, “Hey, we know you missed these guys. So here’s Silvio making sure nobody messes with his hair, and there’s young Artie Bucco foreshadowing his future in the restaurant business!”
