Boardwalk Empire.

Post by Eviltoastman »

It;s got me hooked. Great depth to the characters even from the first episode. Buscemi is fantastic in a multi dimensional role. You get the feeling that he wants to be what the guy he promotes to the general public more than he wants to be the gangster/politician. Kelly Macdonald is growing in stature with every scene and the thing is just full of the most beautiful women I've seen on tv for a while...plus they're often naked.

Any opinions on Michael Pitt in this? It's nice to see him doing something that has success for once.

Yep, season 2 is exceptional. I love so many of the characters. I love Manny Horowitz. I think we're behind you guys so please no spoilers.

Very special series. It could quite decently end right now with what happened but it's got another season!

Woohoo!

I agree, but only if it had to because it got cancelled.

There's too much white knuckle crazy that could happen.

The next season should open with a shot of Arquette naked in a bubble bath.
Slowly getting out to reveal her huge tits then fade to black. Show over.
Like a Sopranos ending you can masturbate to.
