Boardwalk Empire

Actually, since Michael Shannon is one of my favorite actors now that I've seen Take Shelter, I may fight through Boardwalk just to see him.

It's not a bad show. It's just not a great show. For me it's one of those situations where I watch it when I realized it aired but I'm not chomping at the bit for the next episode, sort of like Treme.

I think it's worth watching since it's really well produced and stays pretty even keel so there isn't a severe drop in quality at any point.

It's not the best show ever, but the visual quality alone makes it worth watching in my opinion.

Thoughts on last episode? I thought it was fantastic and find Ben Seagall to be an amusing character. May try to rewatch some of the scenes again

Just finished it..don't want to comment just yet about what happened but damn this show is very good at casting.

I thought last night's episode was one of the better episodes of the season.

Not a fan. Growing more and more frustrated with it each episode. I do like Seagell. The flashbacks are nauseating. Almost wish they would have done the back story the first season and set up the character like most shows do. It's disjointed the way they are doing it.

I will add more lately to give others a chance to watch the show. I will say I think they are just going to kill everyone. Hell the show is over. Who cares right? At least that's what it feels like.

I'm interested to see what they do because there has to be a fine line between what happened in history and what happens in this show. They can only deviate so far when even the main character was based off of someone.

But if it plays out like history says it will be very anticlimactic.

The fact this season is 8 episodes instead of 12 really is making it more difficult for the writers so I'm not giving them too much grief.

Watched the 30 min cast special last night...it was pretty cool and worth the watch to see some of the casting tapes...

Saw the last episode last night and it was ruthless.

RE History

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I always assumed the show ends with Nucky in jail because thats what happened to him.

 

[Stugotes]

So, did I get that right?

The Commodore was revealed to be a pedophile?

That isnt new info. They talked about that before probably season 2?

Commodore had sex with Gillian when she was just 13 and got her pregnant. Nucky set it up for the Commodore.

Yea I'm aware, and that hasbt happened yet in this season and I'm sure it will the last episode.

 

[Stugotes]

Oh, ok, I knew she was pretty young when he knocked her up, but I didn't remember she was just 13. That girl in the recent episode looked way younger than 13, though...
