Originally posted by Addition View PostPfft, I watched the first episode, I don't understand what all the hype is about. I'll give it a few more episodes before I decide to continue watching it.

and I also didn't like Buschemi before, but after 2 episodes of this show, I realize that he is an acting genius. He just has such depth and awareness in what he is doing. He's definitely gonna win an emmy.
And there are 2 other guys that might win supporting emmy awards like the guy who's playing capone and the guy who's playing Rothstein. Great actors.Last edited by -Swizzy-; 09-28-2010, 05:38 PM.

I was posting about this show about 3 months ago...Its a pretty good show...doesn't really stick to the historic values which degrades it a little bit. I think it starts out in 1921 if im right and Charles Luciano is already being called "Lucky" which didn't happened until late 20's. He looks like Arnold Rothestein right hand man already which I don't think happened that early either.
Outside of setting facts straight it is a nice flowing show. You can already see the issues building up for Nucky.
It has already been picked up for a second season just based off the first episode views/ratings.
This is a very interesting time period and I think this show has a lot of content to play off of so I think this can definitely play well into 5+ seasons.

Shit show.. I switched to Andy Griffith reruns on TV Land.
It couldn't top the greatness of Andy Griffith if it tried.
Scorcese is more shot than Chunk.
Anyway, the show is pretty good, not all its hyped up to be, but its still better than anything on TV land.

Not into it.
I think HBO gets a lot of credit for shows that aren't that good (six feet under, carnival, hung, sex and the city, true blood)
all overrated **** shows imo.
The best thing they've done which is actually a great show is Big Love.
And Curb used to be dope, till the 3rd or 4th season.

As for Boardwalk, it's solid. Obviously there was a ton of hype for it and I doubt it could ever live up to that but it's entertaining. Buchemi lacks something though as the main character though.
