The hit TV show The Sopranos featured mobster Tony Soprano attempting to change as a person without physically altering his life, resulting in a display of continually questionable morality. The acclaimed HBO series began with a public panic attack that landed him in the hospital. He sought out therapy to get to the bottom of his issues, which always connected back to his sociopathic ways. The message was clear: Tony would never get better if he continued to murder and engage in organized crime.
