Haven't watched the latest episode yet, will do so tonight.. My thoughts on the show are that it's good, but not as great as some people make it out to be.. I rarely, if ever, can't wait until the next episode like I do for shows like Dexter and The Wire..

I also hate Margaret though, I sometimes just fast forward her story lines lol

How hasn't this thread been bumped? The season started off incredibly slow but then it got tantalisingly good out of nowhere lol. MUST WATCH TV for the last 5/6 episodes.

could have sworn you were hating on this show hmm

must have been mad men

Boardwalk always delivers with its finale..and it has always been a slow build and GOAT in later episodes throughout every season. Seriously, I think these season finale's are some of the finest TV ever :bow:

Jimmy in S2, Harrow in S4. Man dem feels. Next season will be awesome too, set up a bunch of plotlines. Eli and Van Alden will be the GOAT duo under Capone Proud

I'm glad they didn't off Doctor Narcisse, top, top character.

by Tomwin Lannister Tue Nov 26, 2013 2:57 pm

GOAT TV show ffs

I still miss Jimmy though, was an epic scene when he died but he was my favourite character Sad

I was 100% Sure Eli was getting killed tbh, so surprised he's still alive.

Harrow ffs Sad

Also, does anybody else not care about Chalky?

He's been so ungrateful to Nucky for the whole damn show, needs to bite a bullet.

The upcoming 5th season of Boardwalk Empire will be its last.

Great to see this show ending on its own terms. It's the right time, I feel as they've told a masterful story.

by M99 Fri Jan 10, 2014 1:52 pm

Do you think Nucky will die with the show too?

This has been a great show but I still see a lot of unfulfilled potential. I thought this would be one of the GOATs after watching the pilot. Still, the show is very good and it always brings a fantastic climax to a season.

by McLewis Fri Jan 10, 2014 2:48 pm

Well the real Nucky Thompson, called Enoch Johnson, lived to be 85 years old.

So I think there's a chance Nucky will survive this season.

by Firenze Fri Jan 10, 2014 2:53 pm

Mclewis I don't it will be ending on it's own terms..the writer was talking all sorts of plot threads for the future, more gillian etc in interviews after this season ended. I think it just became too expensive for the viewing figures it was pulling in for HBO, personally I'm annoyed because I can see no way things get tied up and resolved nicely. Way too many characters.

Especially if this final season is 8 episodes like the rumours that were going around the last few days of it being the final season and having only 8.

Well I meant that at least they have their own destiny as a show in their hands.

Unlike Carnivale, Deadwood or Rome, which ended up being cancelled despite critical receptions.

And Harrow.

And the 7 year gap.

by LeSwagg James Fri Oct 03, 2014 5:02 am

Yup I'm keeping up.. The season has been ok so far, only 4 more episodes left though.. They gotta speed shit up

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Oct 03, 2014 5:33 am

Is it really an 8 episoder? Laughing

This had potential to go on for ages, it's bad enough it's dying at 5 seasons but 8 fkn episodes smh

Imo too much is gonna happen too soon, a clusterf*ck of important deaths/scenes etc takes away the wow factor of said scenes

by LeSwagg James Fri Oct 03, 2014 6:20 am

Yeah the show had a lot more potential.. They're taking the cowardly way out :coffee:

by M99 Fri Oct 03, 2014 5:04 pm

More like HBO is forcing them to end it fast because it costs too much and they ahave to fund GOT too.

by elitedam Fri Oct 03, 2014 8:42 pm

This season's been pretty good. I'm dissapointed it's only eight episodes long. I don't know how they're going to wrap up all the plot lines. There's so much going on right now.
