Needs more of Al. A milli-second of an appearance isn't good enough :pac:.

I keep fearing they'll kill Richard Harrow off

Jimmy Iovine · 10-07-2013 3:40am

They rival Don Draper and co. in the 'best dressed on television' stakes. They also look so nice and friendly when off-camera :pac:.

What's the name of the character in the middle? I can't find him anywhere.

EDIT: Nevermind. I found it there. Jeffrey Wright is playing Dr. Valentin Narcisse.

Jimmy Iovine · 11-07-2013 2:50pm

Has anyone heard anything about Corey Parker Robinson (A.K.A. Detective Sydnor from The Wire) appearing on the show?

Michael K. Williams put this photo up on his Instagram account.

New trailer.

Richard Dower · 15-07-2013 8:47pm

6 seasons for deffo!

Jimmy Iovine · 11-08-2013 5:15pm

I wish they'd stop releasing trailers for this. I want to start watching it so badly now.

There are some great shots of Al and Nelson. Van Alden looks like he's hit rock bottom.

Best line goes to Johnny Torio - "You want to take on the Chicago police? They'll send an army down here."

Cheers I try to avoid trailers

Jelle1880 · 12-08-2013 8:52am

That Business trailer looks so good, can't wait.

Duck Soup · 12-08-2013 9:12pm

Van Alden's definitely got to jump over to the Dark Side this season and find useful outlets for his inner psychopath.

Jimmy Iovine · 15-08-2013 10:22pm

The new black and white promotional posters look these guys look even gangster than normal.

I love Stephen Graham. Can't wait to see him take over Chicago this year.

Richard Dower · 25-08-2013 12:25pm

Thanks, pity it's so far behind the US though.

Shane St. · 08-09-2013 7:50pm

Same here. He gave Nurse Jackie the ride on his way out though.

Richard Dower · 09-09-2013 4:32am

First eppy out.......

_Kaiser_ · 09-09-2013 10:43pm

Ah it's good to have it back!

Will probably need to watch that again but a pretty good start. I'll save the discussion till people have caught up so I don't have to use spoiler tags

I liked it... no

Margaret

, which I think helped a lot.

has lucky got his deeds for the road land back?

That was back at the start of series 3. Nucky never got them back but used the publicity from the donation as best he could. It also lead to himself and mags just keeping up the appearance of a happy marriage.

5starpool · 09-09-2013 11:45pm

Decent episode, delighted it's back. Stephen Graham is brilliant as Al Capone. Hard to believe he is actually a Scouser.

jcsoulinger · 09-09-2013 11:51pm

I liked the first episode, my favourite part was when we discovered the new fbi agent was just playing dumb.

why was Harrow killing those men?.
And where is vanalden?

CastorTroy · 10-09-2013 1:00am

That other FBI agent that was shot looks like he belongs in the Bugsy Malone musical. Looks like a kid with a fake moustache.

Didn'tmiss Margaret but missed Van Alden.

Skerries · 10-09-2013 1:07am

is Shannon coming back or is he getting too famous?

oh and we get another cast member of The Wire on board

Handsome Bob · 10-09-2013 9:52am

Decent start, Chalky and Nucky better be careful with Purnsley, the guy's just a melting pot ready to explode.

Gillian as a hooker and drug addict was an interesting premise, but they quickly snowballed that by seemingly giving her yet another man to leech off. Hope the character is finished off this season tbh.

Nucky getting Eddie to get rid of your one once she let her intentions be known (wanted Nucky to get her big roles on Broadway) was hilarious. :pac:

The psycho FBI Agent is also an interesting development.

The Capones look like they are going to be some craic, but I'm kind of bored of Rothstein at this stage. Hope he's another one that bites the dust soon.

Diddy Kong · 10-09-2013 10:18am

Don't think AR will be going anytime soon,

if they use the actual time's as a guideline then AR doen't meet his maker until 1928 where as this episode was set in 1924.

Was good to see Nucky protecting himself with the girl, but still leaving himself open with Dicky's murder. Also seems to be setting up his nephew for a role down the line with his comment - "we are all counting on you".

Good solid start, looking forward to the season.

CastorTroy · 10-09-2013 10:24am

And I believe that would be classed as a spoiler to those of us that don't know the history behind this

Apologies, added spoiler now.

Roanmore · 10-09-2013 12:05pm

Enjoyed that episode, not a lot happened but sets up a few stories. It also reminded me that I HATE tap dancing.

plastic glass · 11-09-2013 2:04pm

Breaking Bad may the best series on at the moment and game of thrones the most exhilarating but Boardwalk Empire has to be the most beautiful. Have high hopes for this season.

Am I the only one though who isn't blown away by Al Capone? Don't get me wrong I love Stephen Graham but I just don't get all the love for both the character and the actor's portrayal.

snausages · 11-09-2013 2:09pm

No, I don't really think he's all that either. But I enjoy his scenes. I think it's a tough job doing justice to one of the most reputed gangsters of all time. Sometimes I think the series would be better off with fewer 'historical' figures.

Premiere was good but uneventful. Needs more Michael Shannon. Very bored with Gillian.

spitfireIRL · 11-09-2013 2:20pm

So glad this show is back. I'll have to rewatch season three, was glued to it every week!!

Dermighty · 11-09-2013 3:47pm

Gilliam is very boring.

Capone is good but I think Luciano is way better, masaria is good too.

I like the humour already, seems like there's more of it this time around, based on the premiere episode of this season.

FloatingVoter · 11-09-2013 5:58pm

I don't mind the historical figures, if you don't know them - look them up. They're just errand boys or sideline players at this point in history. None of them are absolutely central to the plot and if you read the history of the times - Luciano, Rothstein, Capone, Masseria were surrounded by shadowy henchmen and hangers-on who may as well have been fictional for all we know about them. For instance, if Luciano paid off a prohibition agent or Masseria killed a grass they were not the kind of men who wrote their memoirs.
The one funny scene in this was Torrio worried about being in the papers, Capone worried about them getting his name right. Seeds of a downfall in one scene. With local and modern echoes.

Hmm, fair enough saying they're not central to the plot, but they weren't errand boys or sideline players at this point. Lansky, Capone and Luciano were to an extent, but Rothstein and Masseria were very powerful.

Powerful in the world that Nucky is dipping his size 11s in. To Nucky that pair are people to placate and avoid clashes with (thats what I meant by sideline players). Hindsight lets us know how dangerous these guys really are - to Nucky they're just some guys out to make a quick buck like him. For me, most of the fun of the show comes from watching Nucky treating the likes of Capone and Luciano like something he stepped in.

snausages · 11-09-2013 10:40pm

Anyone think Harrow has kind of run his course? I like him a lot but I think the season 3 finale felt like a logical closure point for him. He avenged Jimmy's wife and rescued their son. I think because he's so popular the writers might be afraid to write him out. They shouldn't need to kill him on-screen or anything but if he sticks around too long I think it'd be to the character's deteriment.

If they do it, it's because they want to. Similarly, they wont keep him around just for the sake of it or because the fans like him. This show isn't afraid to kill characters off.
