    Re: Boardwalk Empire

    I really wish they gave Chalky more to do on this show. All of the subplots involving black AC have been really relegated to the sidelines and I want to see more. They teased us with a great couple of episodes with a lot of great details and back story on Chalky (that fantastic jail sequence, at the dinner table, the strike) but then dropped it. The klan bit in the finale felt forced and perfunctory. More Chalky and crew please, less a whole bunch of other gangsters I don't really care about (I'm talking to you Lucky!).

    I really like this show, but I can't even envision a third season. That foiniolayle seemed like an ending.

    Re: Boardwalk Empire

    I'm a few episodes behind, but I couldn't help but think that when Nucky came back from Ireland, that if this was written by the people who do "The Walking Dead", we would have spent a whole goddamn season on that boat.

    Well, they certainly wasted no time establishing Cannavale's character. When I saw him carrying that dog in the promos I assumed he'd be some fruity fop who let others do his dirty work.

    Can't say I really missed Jimmy all that much.

    Van Alden turns gangsta and hooks up with Dean O'Banion? Fuck yeah!

    I can't stand Cannavale's character. He's a one dimensional goon with an inferiority complex.

    Plus it kinda rings untrue that a lunatic with no impulse control could A. Rise through the ranks to a place of authority and B. Not get whacked previously at some point.

    Not sure what they're doing with Nucky this season, he's suddenly killing people in his mid-50's?

    I think Pitt was such an insufferable asshole on set that they rushed to write off Jimmy without giving it a lot of forethought, I actually do miss the character now. And almost NO VAN ALDEN. Zzzzzz.

    It always seems to take about ten seconds in movies/tv to snuff somebody out by pinching their air off. I kinda wish this would have been the long, drawn out 3-minute adventure of awfulness that real life would be like if you tried to suffocate someone.

    Also: Super-duper penis party. Top shots at end reminded me of that Noe movie where the camera floats everywhere.

    My son saw the episode before I did and he gave me no warning. Granted, I wouldn't have wanted spoilers but damn it, man!

    Also, I'm very happy for Richard but I fear it won't last.
