Boardwalk Empire
Anyone watching out for this? It's scheduled to premiere on September 19.
Scorsese has been involved in the production of the series' first season, and the subject matter focuses on gangsters in Atlantic City during the beginning of Prohibition. It has great promise. |

Hells yeah, I'm gonna watch this. When the season is over, anyways. I like to binge on a good show, watch a season in a day or two. How many episodes have they scheduled for the first season?

Yeah, I was going to do that but I told myself I would probably commit suicide if I didn't have some good shows to watch now that Entourage is over (Until next summer) and I'm finishing True Blood.

Everytime I see that HBO thing.
Just watched the first episode. The links between this and the soprano's style wise is quite prevalent which by no means is a bad thing . I wonder if we'll see any links between these guys and the DiMeo crime family. |

Am I the only one that doesn't think much of nuckies missus? Rocking bod, but face like a smacked arse. Mrs Thompson is miles better.
I reckon Nuckies brother is going fuck up badly at some point. No idea whats going to happen to Jim, his story has changed a little. I'd say he'll be back at some point. Two things they really ought to tie in more is the New York mob and old mate with the clap, and the old bootlegger that went to prison after getting caught. They seem to just randomly put these scenes in with no real tie to the main story. |

It's hard not to watch this and not just mentally announce the names of all The Sopranos characters, its like "oh theres Butch, oh theres Benny and that Italian speaking crackhead". Loving it so far though, Buscemi is doing a great job and heading for an emmy.

Didn't like the latest ep that much. For some reason it feels like something is missing so far. I'm enjoying it of course but despite the violence, nudity, great scenes and acting, something doesn't feel right atm.

For me, it doesn't have the Doctor Melfi type character and her role in the story. I think most people who watch this have watched the Sopranos and we already have a predisposed opinion on how it should be set out as they really are similar, but its not.
