Haha my girlfriend HATES Ralphie! (understandbly) but I loved him!
I love characters who are pricks!

I also loved Richie Aprile (different as he was).

Another quality episode for me is Commendatori, when they go to Napoli.
That is awesome. I love the parts where Paulie is just trying to fit in with the public and that guy accuses Paulie of being from Nato and cutting his ski lift cable! (which was an impromptu/real scene).

Watching Analisa is a pretty good part of the episode too!
Also, the bit where the kid sets of the firecrackers, gets whooped and lectured by Furio and the Police drive off. Tony and Paulie are standing there shocked but their two Cammoristi associates say 'Don't worry, this is Naples university'. Awesome.
