When alcohol was outlawed, outlaws became kings. I don't see this series surpassing Breaking Bad or The Wire on my list of favorites, but it's been pretty enjoyable and I'm looking forward to seeing where things go after last season's shakeup.
I love this show! It's a great window into how just terribly misguided Prohibition was, and what all that led to. September 16th can't fast enough.
I really enjoy this too. It's not quite as good as Game of Thrones but it's still excellent. I never thought I'd like Buscemi but he shines as Nucky.
Like the OP, it's not my favorite show, but the end of season 2 was insane. They practically killed off half the story. It's a bit more complicated than that.
Obviously. Still, it's great to have such great entertainment set in that time period. My only misgiving going into this season is that it appears Gretchen Mol will still feature in the story somehow... I had hoped the need for her character would have been over after the last couple of episodes that ended the 2nd season.
I do wonder if Margaret will keep the dog Bobby Cannavale gave her... and I loved how calm & collected Rothstein was during Cannvale's rant, specifically when he called him a "**** midget".
Love the fact tha buscemi is a lead character instead of weird looking dud with weird voice who only shows up as a supporting actor.
"Everybody got guns!" Lot of good stuff in this one. Margaret in ballbusting mode= Wasn't a fan of Rosetti in the premier but he's starting to grow on me. The diner scene in particular was great. Stephen Root needs to be in everything. Liked the stuff with Chalky's family, but then I'll like pretty much anything that involves Michael K. Williams. Curious to see what Chalky and Mabelle think of Sammy trying to help the guy who attacked him. Meg Steedle is a lot more enjoyable than Paz de la Heurta was. The whole scene of Mickey picking up Eli was hilarious. Especially Eli expressing what everyone in the audience was thinking in regards to Mickey's ability to survive.
