Boardwalk Empire
 
For those that don't know, it's a new show about underground crime/corruption during early Prohibition. It's written by one of the Soprano's lead writers, and is produced by Martin Scorcese (he's also directing the pilot). And it's got Steve Buscemi in the lead role :love:.

And OMAR from The Wire :cool:

Can't wait

Lock Jaw 09-17-2010 10:37 PM

Definitely gonna check this out.

ClockShot 09-18-2010 12:33 PM

Already aired here in the states. Really considering throwing in the extra cash into the cable bill just to get HBO and watch this.

Buzzkill 09-18-2010 10:44 PM

When did it air? Can I DL it anywhere?

Triple A 09-18-2010 11:16 PM

Pretty pumped. No it didn't air yet. Starts Sunday like you said.

Lock Jaw 09-18-2010 11:17 PM

I searched for a download, couldn't find one.

Haven't heard of it airing anywhere yet either.

Triple Naitch 09-19-2010 05:06 PM

Excited to watch this tonight. Watching it with a few lads.

With this, East Bound & Down and Bored to Death starting next week it may be the best night of television.

The Genius 09-20-2010 01:35 AM

amazing premiere. cant wait til next sunday.

Triple Naitch 09-20-2010 09:27 AM

Meh, thought the premiere was kinda slow. I'm not giving up though. Probably watch it again before next Sunday.

ImpactPlayer365 09-20-2010 05:34 PM

Yeah i agree it was slow, but it looks like it has promise to have some good episodes coming up. Sopranos was a bit slow at times also until you caught on to the little side storiies they had.

Buzzkill 09-20-2010 05:36 PM

I didn't think it was too slow at all, wasn't a fan of the beaten wife storyline though. Seems kind of overdone. Other than that I loved it.

It's got the foundation to be an incredible series.

Requiem 09-20-2010 10:10 PM

Just watched the premiere and loved it. Heard a lot of people saying it was too slow, but I don't agree at all. Thought it was paced perfectly for being the first in the series. It set up everything nicely. Love the way they introduced Al Capone too.

Triple Naitch 09-20-2010 10:24 PM

Is this the first production in which Steve Buscemi had a sex scene?

mitch_h 09-20-2010 11:02 PM

Fargo.

I liked the premiere, had no idea that Michael Stuhlbarg from A Serious Man was in this, love him.

Triple A 09-21-2010 02:54 AM

Pretty awesome. "Ditto" @ the guy from A Serious Man.

Skippord 09-21-2010 03:38 AM

I <3 Michael Pitt

CSL 09-22-2010 08:24 PM

Been putting off downloading this until there have been 2-3 eps and then I'll watch them in one go, 'pretty excited'.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-04-2010 06:03 PM

this show is sheer awesomeness.

Requiem 10-05-2010 01:04 AM

Love it.

Jeritron 10-05-2010 03:11 AM

Yea I finally got around to watching the first two episodes today. Pretty incredible. Probably going to watch the 3rd tomorrow

Triple A 10-05-2010 04:57 AM

So good. 3rd episode was amazing.

RoXer 10-05-2010 09:25 AM

Oh so now you are a doctor?

Requiem 10-05-2010 12:51 PM

What's that mean? Mother fucker?

Lock Jaw 10-06-2010 05:20 PM

Third episode has convinced me to continue watching. Was "on the fence" after the first two.

Lock Jaw 10-07-2010 01:47 PM

Also, calling it now. Jimmy is totally Nucky's illegitimate son.

mitchables 10-09-2010 09:53 PM

amazing show so far. hooked after the third episode for sure.

CREDO 10-11-2010 08:36 AM

Its so very good. loving it.

Episode 4 is out btw.

Yeah me and friends were saying that after the seen with Nukky and Jimmy's mom.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-12-2010 10:20 AM

Also, best show on t.v. by far.

Nervous Ferret 10-12-2010 10:25 AM

If I could actually watch a television series I would want this to be it

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-28-2010 10:56 PM

keeps getting better

Triple A 10-28-2010 11:28 PM

Yes fucking incredible

Triple A 10-28-2010 11:28 PM

Like every single actor that they cast is amazing.

Downunder 10-29-2010 05:34 PM

Seriously, how does HBO continue to make great bloody show like this. I don't think there is another network in the world that has made so many really top quality shows.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-31-2010 07:16 PM

Pantscreamworthy. So goooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

The Genius 11-08-2010 01:29 AM

how did jimmy find out that nelson van alden's wife was having pregnancy problems?

Jeritron 11-08-2010 02:05 AM

Need to watch like 4 episodes of this now. I fall behind on TV shows like it's my job. Though I do love watching them in binges, so it's probably for the better.

Skippord 11-08-2010 05:38 AM

Van Alden is really creeping me out

yeah like watching shows more all at once than waiting for the next one.

Watching season after season of LOST was awesome, because it would just be fresh in your mind. Then when I'd caught up, I still got to take part in a few seasons week by week and it was different. Love watching show after show and not having to wait to find out what happens next. And to have no commercials (depending on the show).

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-23-2010 08:41 AM

sick sick sick sick

Johnny Vegas 11-23-2010 09:17 AM

Yea, Boardwalk Empire is the shit. Me and my roommates have been keeping up with it since it started. We recently missed a couple of episodes but have on-demand. Love Nuck, Al Capone, J, the guy with the plastic left side of a face, etc

Suicidal Icon 11-24-2010 01:15 AM

Shows amazing. This and Eastbound and Down are my favorite shows on TV at the moment.

Triple A 11-24-2010 01:39 AM

Sunday's episode was incredible. Every episode has been incredible really.

Johnny Vegas 11-25-2010 03:52 PM

Yea, i think i would turn down some head to keep up with this show. Eastbound & Down is good too lol.

Ol Dirty Dastard 12-07-2010 12:17 AM

So sad this season is done :(

The Genius 12-07-2010 01:11 AM

arnold rothstein is the man

Lock Jaw 12-07-2010 01:42 AM

Just watched the finale myself. Season started off kind of slow, but once you get all the characters, it really pulls you in... and now I can't wait for the next season to start.

Smitty 12-15-2010 02:10 AM

Great set-up for the next season. That montage of the D'alessio brothers getting whacked was a straight up homage to The Godfather.

CSL 12-15-2010 03:57 PM

Benny Fazio :(

CSL 09-25-2011 06:55 PM

toniiii-eeet

Skippord 09-26-2011 08:50 AM

needs more Harrow

Gertner 09-26-2011 01:20 PM

Best show on tv.

Gertner 10-03-2011 01:16 PM

Incredible episode last night. This season has been amazing so far.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-06-2011 08:11 PM

Brilliant first 2 eps. So many awesome things happening.

Gertner 10-12-2011 03:38 PM

Show has been amazing. It's reached The Soprano's point with me where I'm angry when the show is over because I want to see what happens. Not as good as The Soprano's but definitely my favourite current show.

Gertner 10-17-2011 01:24 PM

Last night was definitely the best episode of season 2.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-18-2011 09:47 AM

Needs time to reach Sopranos levels... all about consistancy. Has all the elements to surpass it though. And agree, best episode was Sunday, though I get the feeling that every episode will surpass the previous in this season.

Gertner 10-18-2011 11:52 AM

I really hope so. The only thin that I believe would keep BWE from reaching the Sopranos is in some peoples view, there are way too many characters.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-19-2011 09:47 AM

Agreed. But I think that's what may separate it from a lot of shows. I think the reason for the multitude of characters is because of the historical relevance of the show. It still has the soap opera element of Sopranos, BUT there seems to be something "bigger" going on with all these people who played such a big part in history.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-19-2011 09:49 AM

The one advantage with the many characters though, is that it slows down the plot, because there's SO MANY subplots, but they all seem to have their own value and aren't just thrown in there. So unlike the Sopranos, it may take longer to run out of ideas. Because after season three or four of the Sopranos, the show whiles still quite good, doesn't have the same OOMPH it started with.

Gertner 10-19-2011 10:22 AM

Oh I love the amount of characters, I love how they really tie in notable charcters with characters I've never heard of. From what I heard Bugsy Sigel is coming to the show.

Requiem 10-24-2011 09:30 PM

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwww

SPOILER: show
Fucking scalped the motherfucker.

Gertner 10-25-2011 12:19 PM

lol that was fucking amazing

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-27-2011 10:40 AM

Damned right it was :cool:

Lock Jaw 10-27-2011 12:53 PM

Just caught up with the last three episodes. Some pretty great scenes.

Gertner 10-27-2011 01:03 PM

So glad Richard didn't shoot himself.

Lock Jaw 10-27-2011 01:10 PM

Totally gonna "do it" with Jimmy's Bi-Curious Wife.

Gertner 10-27-2011 05:02 PM

She's so fucking hott. Cutting her hair made her 100x hotter

Tommy Gunn 10-27-2011 05:31 PM

Been thinking of downloading this.

I've heard it's good, but is it 'Sopranos' good?

CSL 10-27-2011 05:49 PM

no but it's better than everything else on TV outside of Breaking Bad. It's 'HBO good'.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-27-2011 09:18 PM

there's something about it I enjoy more than the sopranos, maybe it's just me.

Gertner 10-28-2011 08:40 PM

Nothing will top the Soprano's for me, but this is a close second.

Gertner 10-29-2011 01:08 PM

http://tvrecappersanonymous.files.wo...ka-soldier.gif

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-29-2011 01:57 PM

It was super badass when Richard asked Jimmy if he'd die for him. and he was like "I'd take every single bullet" or something. SO GANGSTER. Jimmy is somehow super compassionate while also being a ruthless cunt.

Gertner 10-31-2011 12:21 PM

HOW FUCKING AWESOME WAS THE SHOW LAST NIGHT!?!?! WOW! I just about pissed myself when Van Alden walked into the room to find Lucy, his newborn baby and his wife haha!

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-31-2011 09:02 PM

Yeah, fuck it was super intense. Shit is getting ready to hit the fan. I love how each episode has different subplots than the episode previous. Keeps every subplot super fresh.

RoXer 10-31-2011 09:43 PM

Didn't realize the guy with the beard was Junior Soprano.

Gertner 10-31-2011 09:45 PM

Watched this and Walking Dead back to back. So impressed with BWE and so disappointed with The Walking Dead

Tommy Gunn 11-02-2011 04:16 PM

Watched season 1 over the weekend, LOVED IT!

I'm going to wait until season 2 finishes before I start it so I can binge on it over another weekend. If a show isn't episodic, I cannot stand waiting for weekly episodes.

Gertner 11-02-2011 09:21 PM

You are going to LOVE season 2. So much is going on and I hate having to wait a week.

Gertner 11-08-2011 11:24 AM

Wow, so much stuff happened Sunday. Incredible episode!

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-13-2011 11:00 AM

Yeah man, this show is even better this season. And it's like "Where the FUCK can it even go?". So many possibilities. I want Eli to be disposed of.

Gertner 11-13-2011 02:13 PM

Me too, he's such a fucking snake.

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-13-2011 02:39 PM

I feel like Jimmy may be the one to do it. He seems to have a particular dislike for him.

Gertner 11-13-2011 05:11 PM

I agree, or maybe Luciano or Capone since they both fly of the rails.

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-15-2011 10:25 AM

ARGGGGGGGGGGH Sunday was AMAZING. Classic scene when Torio, Rothstein and Nucky were all together and they realized there was some fishy business afoot. Rothstein is one of the most understated, amazing characters on the show. Always has amazing pearls of wisdom.

Gertner 11-15-2011 11:41 AM

lol i have it DVR'd and am watching it tonight.

Gertner 11-17-2011 01:47 AM

Finally watched this past Sunday's episode. Wow, I wonder how Nucky's "resigning" will play out?

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-17-2011 03:33 PM

Was absolute genius though.

Lock Jaw 11-17-2011 04:35 PM

Just caught up with the last three episodes. I always seem to somehow fall exactly three episodes behind.

Anyways, Nucky obviously has some devious plan in the works. Can't wait to see what it is.

Also, I concur about Rothstein being an amazing character.

Gertner 11-19-2011 09:18 AM

Can't believe season 2 is almost done. Gonna be a long wait.

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-28-2011 12:33 PM

I know Manny is probably going to die, but jesus Christ, he is the fucking man Boychik.

Gertner 11-28-2011 01:02 PM

lol haven't watched last nights episode yet, but I can't fucking wait

Gertner 12-01-2011 10:53 AM

HOLY SHIT WHAT AN EPISODE!!!!!!!! Jimmy's wife was so hott too :(

Ol Dirty Dastard 12-03-2011 03:18 AM

lol she had to go B-) needed to feed her to Horvitz to build him as a threat!

CSL 12-03-2011 03:36 AM

wondering if they'll push Harrow off the back of this, :heart: him

RoXer 12-05-2011 04:59 PM

Loved this week's episode more than last.

Requiem 12-05-2011 05:13 PM

Yeah, damn. Talk about some mommy issues. Always thought there was something more in that already messed up situation.
