The Sopranos has long been considered one of the greatest TV shows ever made, although we’re a bit biased. Where would we be without Tony, Carmela, Paulie Walnuts and the story’s glorious love letter to all things New Jerseyian? With 21 Primetime Emmy Awards and five Golden Globes, 86 episodes, and six seasons under its belt (well, maybe seven, it’s debatable), there’s never been a better time to join the family and catch up.

That’s especially true since the Sopranos prequel movie, The Many Saints of Newark, premiered in 2021. The film explores how a young Tony Soprano entered the family business, and is currently streaming on Max. Before you watch the prequel though, take a deep dive into the worlds of warring Italian-American criminal families, their emotional turmoil, and that oh-so-talked about ending scene.

Here’s everything you need to know about streaming The Sopranos series in case you’re one of the few people who haven’t watched it yet, and where you can watch the whole show for free. (Note: we do have a guide to the 10 best Sopranos episodes if you don’t know where to start.)

How to Watch The Sopranos on Max

If you’re already signed up with a Max plan, you can watch the every season of The Sopranos, including the prequel The Many Saints of New York, for free. Don’t currently have a subscription to the streamer? You can sign up for a monthly subscription starting at just $9.99 (Max’s ad-supported tier).

How to Watch The Sopranos Online Free

Want to watch every season of The Sopranos for free? Unfortunately, Max doesn’t offer a way you can watch The Sopranos free online — but if you’re a new subscriber, what you can do is get Max for free with AT&T, Cricket Wireless, or through DirecTV Stream.

Get Max With AT&T: AT&T customers can also get Max free thanks to the company’s current promotion, which lets you watch Max for free with eligible Unlimited phone, cable, and Internet plans. Check to see if your plan includes Max at att.com. In short, if you’re already signed up for one of the eligible plans, all you’ll have to do is download the Max app to get free streaming of The Sopranos. New customers can also sign up for one of those plans to stream The Sopranos on Max free.

Get Max With Cricket Wireless: Another way to get Max for free is with a Cricket Wireless plan, which starts at $60 a month. The package includes unlimited calls and high-speed data, and it comes with an ad-supported Max subscription.

Get Max With DirecTV Stream: Sopranos fans can also get Max included with a DirecTV Stream subscription. Plans start at $79.99 a month and include a five-day free trial. You can get a Max add-on included for up to three months. After that, your Max subscription will cost the standard $15.99 a month for the ad-free package.

How to Watch The Sopranos Without a Max Subscription

Besides Max, your best bet for watching the entire iconic TV series is by purchasing it on Blu-ray or DVD with this collection. You’ll have access to any episode in the series at any time, even if you don’t have WiFi or don’t want to pay for a monthly subscription to a streamer.

Watching The Sopranos on Prime is also a good option if you’ve never seen the show before and want to check it out episode by episode instead of diving head-first into binge-watching the whole series. Once the seasons are downloaded, they’re yours to keep—you can watch them any time you want, with the ability to stream The Sopranos online, on your TV or computer.

Is There a Sopranos Book Available Online?

The answer: yes! While The Sopranos isn’t based on an original book series the same way that The Godfather was, authors Alan Sepinwall and Matt Zoller Seitz (TV critics for Tony Soprano’s hometown paper, New Jersey’s The Star-Ledger) wrote one of the first deep-dives on the series.

The Sopranos Sessions features essays on every episode and a new series of interviews with creator David Chase. It’s a must-read for any fan of the original series, or those who want to brush up on their Sopranos facts before the new movie premieres.

Where Was The Sopranos Filmed?

From the infamous strip club, Satin Dolls, to Holsten’s old-timey ice cream parlor, plenty of real-life locales in New Jersey and Little Italy in NYC served as the filming sites for The Sopranos. If you want to live vicariously through Tony Soprano and his posse at the Bada Bing, Holstens, and more, you can celebrate with the “25th Anniversary Sopranos Sites Tour” from On Location Tours.

The tour lasts four hours long and prices start at $72 for adults. What we like: the tour guides are all actors who have appeared as stand-ins or extras on film sets, and will share little-known facts and behind-the-scenes info on the filming locations throughout the tour.
