Phil's wife was the funniest. "It's a mortal sin to be a homosexual." Meanwhile she was married to a fuckin serial killer .
Combination of hypocrisy and naïveté. Mostly hypocrisy. Carmela Soprano would have looked the other way if she was married to Charles Manson, as long as he bought her a house in the North Jersey suburbs.
Yeah, and don't forget the jewelry and fancy cars. If Tony had a serious argument with Carmela all he had to do was either buy her a big diamond ring, a car (remember that porsche?), or even a house (white caps). Carmela was a hypocrite with a capital H.
