Bobby Baccilieri - Definition and Overview |
|
|
Robert "Bobby Bacala" Baccilieri, Jr., played by Steve R. Schirripa, is one of Tony Soprano's men on the fictional HBO TV series, The Sopranos.
Bobby is quite different from the other men in Tony Soprano's crew. Bobby is quiet, almost shy, sweet and even-tempered. He is a big guy, which brings him much ridicule, but he is very loyal and even Tony apologizes after making cracks about his weight. Bobby operates Junior Soprano's loan shark business in his stead and also acts as Junior's assistant while he is under house arrest for federal racketeering charges.
Bobby was very loyal to his wife, Karen, and was the only made man in the Soprano crew without a "goomar" (a girl on the side). However, Bobby lost his wife in a car accident and took it especially hard. Following Karen's death, Janice Soprano actively pursued Bobby, trying to help him out as much as possible (with cooking and watching over Bobby's two children) but also to trying to initiate a relationship with him. Despite Bobby's initial reluctance, the two were soon married.
