So, what you’re saying is….
His true age, has yet to be revealed.
Hehe
Apparently there is a true age that remains to be unveiled
😄😄😄😄😄
HEHE
His age is on sopranos wiki
Fun Fact: Adrianna wasn't murdered by Sil. She just crawled under his bullets for warmth.
heh heh
nah she really missed cosette so she pretended to be like cosette
Corny.
@@persephoneszeligawrong. Best part of being a Sopranos fan after multiple rewatches.
@@whahappend8222 no, you’re wrong.
The way I alwasy interpreted it: Sil was anywhere between 5-10 years older than Tony. So where Tony was in his 40s, Sil was likely in his late 40s to early 50s. Old enough to where Sil would've viewed Tony as a kid when he first entered the family, but also young enough to where their daughters could reasonably be the same age and view each other as equals later in life.
Agreed. In my head, I always saw Sil as being about 7 years older than Tony. Not sure why I picked 7, but there it is.
Same. Based on Steve's look, I imagine him being born in 1953-55 to Tony's 1959. When Tony recounts the story of them peaking through the door I imagine him as a late teenager &/or in his early to mid 20s who watched him rise up the ranks as an older brother figure.
Agreed. Sil was probably old enough to be responsible for “babysitting” Tony when they was peaking through the door. Also Tony and Carm married young and had Meadow young, along with that Tony went through the ranks fast making him seem older.
I always thought Sil was about 5 years older, give or take.
Agreed
"Just when I thought I was older.... They pull me back down younger"
He was 47. Just a kid.
Lols I always laughed at that
The sha’s kid brother
Guy was like 52 FFS 😂
Us? We're all old men.
Silvio is an immortal being. No one knows how old he is. He may be harmed, but he cannot die. That's why he only ended up in a coma at the end of the series. He is sleeping, resting, healing his wounds. And before anyone realises what he is, he'll disappear, probably to some country nobody's ever heard of before, like uh, I don't know, Norway or something.
They should've continued Lillyhammer. That was a great show.
Lilyhammer plot was Silvio's comatose dream @@user-pm9rc4fi4r
I love that line

Silvio is so old ... legend has it he spit shined Al Capone's shoes before he left for Chicago .
So he used a shinebox then?
@@BaronSaturday66no more shines billy
@@BaronSaturday66 Maybe you didn't hear about it, you've been away a long time. They didn't go up there and tell you. I don't shine shoes anymore.
Many Saints should have been about Jackie, Tony, Sil, Artie, and Ralphie and all the crazy stunts they pulled with Dickey as the "Rockstar" they all looked up to.
Why? It’s Cvhases creation. He’s got a first amendment right to express himself as he likes. Just because you’re a fan doesn’t make you his god

The best way to measure silvio's age is to measure the aging of the cheese inside his socks
Probably that Cheesefuck sweeped it off while Sil was sleeping
I always assumed sil was older just off of how him and tone spoke to one another
Well. He’s the consigliere so I thought that’s why Silvio talked to Tony the way he did. He’s the advisor. Tony needs a second ear because he can’t run the ship on his own and sometimes he needed to hear the truth of what’s going on regardless of his feelings so he can make the best informed decision.
“I’ve known you since you were a kid Ton’”
From the “what it’s like to be number one” scene
How he has the same ☹️☹️☹️☹️ face
@@Rrr_558correct it’s the scene Tony doesn’t want to take shit from New York
And sil says that he has a problem with authority or something to that extent 👍
…or David Chase never envisioned this level of continuity and scrutiny 😂
He’s such a good actor that I never knew he was Steven van zandt until I was older 😂
06:47 Beppe is a universal nickname for people called Giuseppe (the Italian version of Joseph)
As is Peppino
I always figured he was only older by 5-10 years. i could see an older and younger teen both peaking through the door.
My belief is that Silvio , is 3-5 years older than tony . Similar to Pig Puss and Jackie SR. Old enough to be a "mentor" growing up while still being young enough to hang out with when they were younger. He maybe just got involved in "this thing of ours " younger than Tony did so he appears younger.
Jackie sr is same age as tony. Silvio and puss are older the. Them. Paulie and silvio were made men buy the movie
Pig Puss lol
Less like 3-5 years and more like 5-10 years.
Uh, it's Big Puss, short for Big Pussy. As in pussy cat, because he was a cat burglar.
"this thing of ours " Don't say that, you sound like a bellend
Gabagool? Over Here! 👇👇👇
They’re nitrate free!
@@hypnoticflower3152Nitrate free gabagool would be like water free watermelon.
Paulie is an interesting one. He’s like 20 years older than members like Tony, Silvio, Bobby, Ralph, Richie etc.
He’s like the older kid in school who hangs around with younger people
Not the cool older kid, like the guy who's been outta school for 2 years who hangs out with the freshmen he teased
@@elmizzoxYeah definitely not the cool kid. Paulie despite being significantly older, isn’t even respected. Multiple times Tony puts his hands on him, he’s mocked by other members of the crew, and isn’t considered a top 3 member when New York planned their assassinations even when most of Tony’s crew was dead.
@@phenomenal8196 the top 3 thing is because he stepped down as UB, but otherwise all factual.
It's 'cos he's a very immature but very effective Enforcer, in a world where only Earners make any significant progress, and he seemed relatively content with that, until his World, and the World in general, got far too expensive for his kind to exist in as is, and especially once Johnny Sack got into his head.
@@elmizzoxhe would've had contemporaries and elders all throughout his time in the family. It's only the last two seasons of the show where he lost all of those and became the old guy.
Junior and a couple people he hung around with were around and active just before the show started and through the first couple seasons, and they were older. Richie Aprile seemed to be around his age. Hesh wasn't made but he was involved and older. Carlo seemed to be around Paulie's age. Baccala Sr. was around in the time immediately preceding the show. Feech was older and directly involved. He would often be interacting with members of other families around his age and older.
Sil: “my true age , has yet to reveal itself”.
Sylvio is a magical being and is however old he needs to be at the time.
"In the end, f##k santa claus"

Silvio is obviously a Silver Fox
Ever since Pure Kino said Many Saints wasn’t that bad I can’t help but remember when he used to wait in the car…
That so called movie was shit!
Silvio didn't know Artie in the pilot only. From then on, you can tell that they've known one another for a while. A lot of things have changed from the pilot.
Yeah a lot of things were changed later, like Tony already being full fledged boss in the pilot and Jackie sr not existing yet but in the rest of the season he’s a capo under Jackie and later Junior.
Everyone’s age is wrong in Many Saints of Newark. Jackie Aprile Sr was 44 yrs old when he died meaning he’s 4-5 yrs older than Tony but in MSON he’s a teenager around the same age as Tony considering he’s not old enough to buy alcohol yet. Christopher being a newborn when Tony is teenager is also a huge retcon.
The age difference between Tony and Christopher has been one of the most inconsistent
It should also be noted Silvio getting involved in the Mob earlier than Tony doesn’t mean he’s that much older than him. A lot of mobsters are high school dropouts, Tony graduating and attending college is a rarity among mobsters. It’s entirely possible Sil dropped out and got a head start on his mob career and Tony came in later after his semester in college but they are still around the same age.
One thing is that Gandolfini looked at least ten or fifteen years older than his actual age. He started playing Tony Soprano when he was in his late thirties, but looked like he was at lest fifty. Tony, Silvio, and Big P always looked like they were about the same age, but Little Steven and Vincent Pastore were ten and fifteen years older than Gandolfini. People also might assume Tony and Silvio are the same age because Silvio's daughter is about the same age as Meadow.
this might be just a small video, as you said, but it stands out as one that actually adds to the discourse. i appreciate you looking at the primary material to find textual evidence and even fact checking the claims others have made. something that always stood out to me was that paulie says to sylvie "i go way back, before you, *even*"...to me that "even" says a lot and wouldn't be in the sentence if Sylvio wasn't nearly Paulie's age, ie older than Tony. the writers never nailed it down exactly because they could have never imagined that in a show with so much thematic complexity, viewers would fixate on the most irrelevant and distracting details like what year someone was born exactly.
Theres also the underlining thing that Tony was young to be a boss Ray calling him the boy wonder that he was put on the fast track because of who his father and uncle were. Also Feech calling him the Boy King and Phil "you got some balls kid I'll give you that"
Relax, it's an expression!
You'll give me what I tell you give me.
Tbf the timeline of many saints is completely off
The film ended in 1972 when tony is supposed to be 12 💀
I would like to see more videos like this in between the big ones. 10 minutes of going over a character or a plot point that may have been changed and giving another tidbit is amazing. If it’s real quick, you can make a short. Great video.
Older than tony or not, he’s still just a kid
Looking back on it, I can't help but wonder if Sil was Tony's "introduction" to the business.
He was the one who let Tony peer inside and see his dad do business so Tony could get a taste of just how strong his old man was and how powerful he himself could be. Then he was like Tony's crew's babysitter, feeding advice to Tony and keeping an eye on him for Johnny. Maybe he was the one who pitched the Feech La Manna heist to get Tony pushed up the ladder. Johnny DID end up getting him made pretty shortly after so it stands to reason this might have all been thought out.
I always thought Silvio was 5-8 years older
“We’ve come a long way Kino…Indeed we do”
“Timeline got fucked up” was such an amazing closer for this video lmfaooo 😂
This guy always with the scenarios
IT WAS YOU KINO!
new video after binging a ton of old ones, gotta love it
8:27 Silvio summarizes the plot of Back to the Future Part II
I'm glad you went back and covered this
he’s 4 years older, I saw Terence winter confirm it in an interview
My assumption is Syl is 6 years older, having joined this thing of ours from the outset of puberty (Paulie flirted with them until his release from the Army). As such, once Tony, Jackie, and Ralph start kicking up, they kick up to Syl since Dickie is no longer alive
Our true age has yet to reveal itself.
I think Steven's wig is probably older than the whole crew.
Video came at a perfect time, just watched the many saints of newark yesterday
I’m sorry
Just when HBO thought Borko was out we pulled him back in.
I just want a Godfather remake with Silvio playing Michael, that's all I want. We have to get it before the actor gets too old
Thank you for making this point. Ive been making it for a couple years now.
He’s an immortal being. A daywalker. Like Blade.
The Wikipedia says he was born in 1947 making him 12 years older than Tony and around 60 when he becomes comatose
It’s confirmed that in The Sopranos universe there is an afterlife. What’s to say they weren’t all in some kind of purgatory where they have a chance to redeem themselves (Tony’s attempts to go to therapy etc) to pass to a next realm where they get rewarded but can also prove themselves unworthy and go to hell? Ralphie is the devil, that’s a pretty well established idea, what about Melfi as someone redemptive? Tony refuses her help and so is damned to hell. In this version, the need for all the ages to be entirely lined up with each other correctly is lessened because it’s otherworldly.
In another video you mentioned a happy wanderer as being your favorite episode, that's crazy because it's also mine, season two is hands down my favorite with happy wanderer being the best. season two is where it all started to come together.
The issue wasn’t that they made Sil older, I think most fans got the idea that he was a bit older. It’s how MUCH older they made him in the movie. He already looks 40 and is already in suits and hanging out with the older gen while Tony is still basically a kid. That just doesn’t jive with the rest of the series imo.
New kino upload 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 no more watching kino re-runs 😂
Ive always felt silvio is between Tony and pauly,
7-10 years older and pauly the same from silvio
For me personally even before saints of Newark was made I thought Sil was 8-10 years older then Tony and just looked good for his age and was like a older brother figure in a way but the respect still is egual both ways
My best friend and I watched Many Saints a couple years ago and had this exact same discussion.
Pure kino = pure gold
Always got the impression that Silvio was somewhere between 15 and maybe 20 years and most older than Tony. I got the impression (especially from the early seasons,) that the fact that Tony was so young was a major point “conflict” regarding Tony’s rise to the upper echelon of the Jersey Mob.
I always assumed Silvio was 5-8 years older than Tony and was his “big brother” in the mafia
Nice work
Silvio in 0:17 is not dressed like Michael Corleone in Godfather Part III. He's dressed like Mr. Rogers!
Simple explanation would be that Silvio is older, but not much. 3-5 years maybe. When I was a kid I mostly had friends that were 2-3 years older than me. So they also didnt know people I went to school with or was in kindergarten with. At certain points that age difference makes a big impact like when my cousin got into puberty we didnt have much contact for a few years, while we were very close friends before. We got good friends again when I was around 19-20 and age did not really make that much of an impact.
Idk it’s funny to think that Silvio just chose to pal around with kids and teenagers well into his twenties and then it randomly paid off when he was in his 50’s.
Aside from the end Silvio has one of the best runs of anybody on the show.
I didn't even know this was a thing that was brought up. I always thought Sil was about 5-10 years older. Close enough to be friends from childhood but old enough to still see Tony as a kid. If I was 15 seeing an 8 year old grow up. Yes he would be a kid in my eyes until we were probably in our 20s to 30s. Paulie always seemed like he was 15-20 years older. He does look like a in shape 60 year old by the middle seasons. And he ran with his dad.
Do u have the Sopranos Book or the magazine
I own that same Sopranos family history book! 😄 It's one of the paperbacks with the black and white poster cover.
If you have run with street, gangs, or street crews , or whatever you wanna call it, there are people of various ages within the same crew
Silvio's age is another way in which The Many Saints Of Newark screwed up. The only thing worse was Junior having Dickie whacked for laughing at him for slipping.
I think most of it could be explained by Sil being 5 or so years older. A five year difference is big when the characters are teenagers "I knew you from when you were a kid," but its must smaller as adults. Them peeking into the game could be less like little kids, and more like wannabe hang-around youts. And it could also explain why Sil got the offer to be boss first.
I Don’t Know If You’ve Done One, But You Should Do A Video On All The Projects The Cast Of The Sopranos Have Done With Each Other..
great observation
It's strange that when you get out of the fables in the mines, they've come to aquarium
I don't think it's as complicated as anyone is making it. Silvio is a little bit older than Tony, and then Paulie is older then again. Anthony got is position as top of the family because of who his father was and because he was a good earner and leader. Sil never persued being a boss. When Tony was in his teens and Sil his 20s then their age difference would make Tony seem like a Kid to Sil. Once Tony was out of his teens and a raising star those 5/10 years age difference between them would be less siginificant. Tony rose fast, met then overran Sil in rank because of who is father was and his own merit. So they appeared like peers because they probably got made around the same time. Sil appears older/younger depending on if he's wearing his hair piece too.
Can you do a couple videos looking into what could have happened to the Bonpenseiros and the Scatinos? They were characters in s2 whose stories were never truly resolved and it always has bothered me
You know, things might be a little different PureKino… you can accept some responsibility for a change…
Hey guys, I hope everyone has a great Presidents’ Day.
I'm surprised you didn't make this video about Christopher. Michael Imperioli said he considers Christopher in his early 20s in the beginning of the show and that would explain his arrogance as being young and new to the family but in season 5 Cold Cuts Christopher said that Chris wanted to play with Tony and Tony B; they ended up tying him to a tree and leaving him till 3 am. This means Tony and Tony B in their 30s did this to a kid which doesn't really align with how some 30 year olds would act. The implication set in the episode is that they were teens and Chris was a kid which makes Christopher in his 40s during the show but in Many Saints of Newark Tony is almost in his 20s when Chris is still in diapers meaning Christopher is in his 30s throughout the show. Also Silvio says at one point in the show he was Tony's dad's right hand man so I always figured he would've been a really young looking 70.
I always figured they were 5-10 years apart and at a young age Sil took a liking to Tony and they had a big brother-little brother relationship, showing a kid a big time card game through a peephole isn't all that strange to me.
Ya also gotta understand that in the streets ya got people who are coming in young asl, we're talking as young as 8-10 years old doing mule and lookout work, and cats who have survived a long time and are in their 60's and older. So it's just not uncommon for someone in their 20's to be schooling a 13 year old. And if they have a personal relationship they could just be looking out for em like family/community should.
Tbh this is the least of it, the one that always messes me up is Chrissy's age. The actors are only about 5 years apart but in the show they make it sound like Tony and Christopher are only about as far apart as Sil and T, but in TMSoN they show them as close to 15+ years apart. And the one thing I felt TMSoN did well was show the fallibility of the characters memories and give it to us as it actually was. But in that timeline Tony would have been in his 20's tying a kid to a tree and Chrissy would be closer to Meadow in age than Tony. The Sopranos, really David Chase, was so insane with the details that they went back and reshot scenes that he didn't like seasons later. With the exception of the pilot episode most everything is very tight and there are few contradictions or anything else that can't be explained by unreliable sources of information. But this one definitely stands out so I don't understand what I'm missing or why Chase decided to go that route with the movie.
on all the sopranos fan pages and on the hbo on they use to have Sils just a couple years older then tony that was before the move but it was like that for years then movie came out and they changed his age
Silivo explained in All Due Respect. I being inow you for since Tony was a kid.
I don’t know how many years Silvio’s got under his belt, but I do know that Uncle Philly did twenty fuckin years, little known factoid.
My theory is that Sil’s father might have given himself a more “American” First name. I do also think that Sil was about 10 or so years older than Tony. IDK, I’m probably wrong.
I think al lot of the confusion around silvios age is because Steve van Zandt looked younger than he actually was. I think if he wouldn´t wear a wig, he would look much older.
Doesn't the wiki have their exact birthdates? I think the line about peeking through the door is plausible if teenage Silvio was acting like an older friend/mentor to child Tony, before either got involved in the mob; and given that the whole theme of mobsters is that they have behavioral issues.
I always thought Tony was the youngest out of them. They call him “the boy wonder,” suggesting he was younger.
Where did they get Many Saints Silvio, from the Silvio museum?
Field strip and maintenance of a Mini-14 is good to know. Your stock just keeps going up my friend.
It’s simple. Sil is a time traveller & the Bing is like the Golden Triangle
I thought Silvio was at least 10 years older than Tony
Sil 100% got out of that hospitable bed, cursed everybody out for letting the Boss get whacked, and filled the power vacuum himself.
According to a picture I’ve seen of the Tony’s,Silvio, Chrissy and Paulie’s NJ licenses in the show Silvio was 9 years older then Tony
In the show DOB:
Paulie 1942
Silvio 1950
Tony 1959
Chrissy 1966
I think Silvio is about 6 or 7 years older than tony, so he’s still a few years older but not as old as Paulie, where him and Tony may have known eachother from the neighbourhood. And that sil got into the mob in his late teens so a few years before tony so he was established but cause he was young he may of been helping Tony and Jackie’s crew along the way to mentor them along with Richie aprile
What if Silvio is a Highlander waiting for the quickening?
You are never to old for a good Gabagool
My take is Silvio is 4-7 or 8 years older than Tony but Tony was mature kid so he was friends with older kids once he got to his late teens/early 20’s. Tony was a fast riser in the family, remember. So he would be a contemporary in the mafia with guys older than him.
Yeah now iima need those books
I never gave much thought to Silvio's age. Is it a hanging offense, or not?
