Tons of different roles.

Junior plays a judge and a defense attorney
Carmela plays a lawyer,
Artie played both a cop (albeit a crooked one) and a couple of different criminals,
Johnny Sack plays an old school mafioso who has an idiot son (IIRC they even riff on the Sopranos in that episode),
Patsy plays a number of bit roles best one being an angry 'inventor' who was upset that his Magnetic Pigs were ripped off,
Pussy pops up a couple of times, usually as a dumbass mob guy
Phil plays a strip club owner called Jay Z.
Hesh plays a pervy judge who sexually harasses one of the ADAs
Gigi (the guy who dies on the toilet) played the recurring character Profaci...who eventually ended up being a crooked cop with mob ties
Christopher also played a loser limo driver
Charmaine Bucco plays a Lorena Bobbitt analogue and attacks one of the detectives with a frying pan

poo poo that's just scratching the surface, Melfi played in the failed spin-off Trial By Jury.

I could have sworn that the song playing on the radio when Aid and Sil were in the car was Free Fallin' by Tom Petty. The blu ray has something different.

For prominent Tom Petty songs you might be thinking of American Girl, which Carm plays when she's talking to Tony in his coma.

And it turns into "Barracuda" by Heart once Silvio turns off the road into the woods.

Ok, I think it's me. I talked to my wife about it and she said I always bring this up every time I watch the episode. So at some point in time I decided in my head that Free Fallin' plays during that scene but I have no idea why.

And I always thought okay, Hunchback of Notre Dame. You also got your quarterback and halfback of Notre Dame.

I'm just saying. It's interesting, the coincidence. What, you're gonna tell me you never pondered that? The back thing with Notre Dame?

Oh yeah, there's tons of stuff I left out, but those are the notable ones I could recall off the top of my head. Janice, whenever she appeared, was usually good for a laugh or two.

It's a great episode. And Bobby's final scene is one of my favorites in all of the show.

I don't remember, but it did make me think of this scene, in which Tony completely and utterly humiliates and emasculates some d-bag.

I have a friend that manages a managed retirement home and everything that was shown in the Sopranos is pure fidelity to that environment. Bravo David Chase.

Yeah that's a tough one. To me, Vito's relationship with Johnny Cakes was pretty progressive for a TV show an actual decade ago, but then I'm also a newbie when it comes to noticing stuff so.

Also obviously the reaction of the other characters & so & so was in that universe. Just saying the actual relationship scenes seemed sincere to me.
