I didn't care too much for the flashbacks. Seems like they didn't have enough script so they decided to go with some flashbacks. I could see if they did that in Season 1, but we are on the final season. Flashbacks are just filler now.
|
|
I just hope they make it good this season, and not go the way of The Sapranos

Sopranos ending = Disappointment
True Blood final season = Big Disappointment Boardwalk Empire final season = If previous show are any indication Bigger Disappointment |

Guess Luciano already got his face cut up. Now he's got a Stewart Scott lazy eye.
So Meyer Lansky/Luciano made a run at Nucky? Makes you wonder what has happened over the past few years while he's been setting up shot in Cuba. I loved the scenes where the Commodore teaches Nucky some life lessons. |
|
If the first episode is anything to go off of the season is going to be a big let down. I have no clue what's going on and they skipped years ahead. Seems like they are trying to cram as much possible in as they can and it feels rushed. What a shitty way to end one of my favorite TV series.

Some off us may have not watched the first episode yet, so could we limit any spoilers please.....

I thought the actor did a fair job of portraying a younger Commodore, same speech and inflection pattern as when Dabney Coleman played him. |

In the TV series, Nucky's life was poised to take off, but never left the ground.

They would have fit better in the first few seasons either to get to know nucky or after the commodore died. Now it justs feel like the writers are filling time or rushing to close this out? |

I don't know why Chalky is in prison. I don't like his weird new sidekick. I don't care about Marge and her story. The flashbacks should have come in the first season. I get that they were trying to tie in the lessons that Nucky learned as a child to what he's doing now. But it's a little late in the game to share his motivation with us. And just what is Nucky doing now? Where does he live now? There is way too much to wrap up in 8 episodes. |

I'll go a bit further and say that I'm not pleased to see that Jillian will appear in this season. As far as I'm concerned, they wrapped up the entire Jimmy storyline when they killed off Richard. Tommy is off to live with Richard's widow, Jillian is in prison presumably, Jimmy's body was discovered, the Commodore is long dead, same with Jimmy's wife. I don't see the point in keeping any of that storyline alive. I'm still not happy that they killed Richard off . |

The series ended with harrow's death. Not even a good ending at that.

I'm largely disappointed that I won't be seeing anymore of Arnold Rothstein. He was my favorite character after Harrow.

I'm pretty bummed that there will only be 8 episodes....I hope they can wrap it up that quickly and not be a huge disappointment.

How many spinoff shows do you think they can make at the end of the season.
I foresee at least one 1930s- 1940s gangster. or one political. |

Interesting idea, but Jillian was supposedly 14 or something like that when the Commodore knocked her up so... anyway, it doesn't really add anything to Nucky's storyline. But we'll see I guess. |

I was not surprised that Nucky really didn't hire on Tonino. He just had too much of a track record of flipping on his pals. Roseti, Masseria, the new guy, etc.
Not sure where they are headed with Gillian, if anywhere. The scenes with Eli were great but it's sad that he's sunk so low. |

Liked this episode more than the first one, since they didn't have to spend time setting the scene. Looks like Dr. Narcisse is coming back. He needs to die.

For there to only be 8 episodes, this season is progressing slowly.
This is the laziest writing I've ever seen. It's like the point is to make barely enough drama to make it watchable. |

No more going back in time. and just killing some people. In an attempt to keep us interested isn't working !
