SC,

Cool picture of the 1940 Thanksgiving Parade. Even then there were crowds gathered (tho much moreso now I'd say).

BTW, I was thinking today is Sunday and wondering why I didn't see BE in the tv listings. I'm all mixed up. LOL


TIS

I missed some of the last episode. Did Owen meet with Masseria?

I guess you could say that. Masseria was nice enough to return him to Nucky all wrapped up.

Anybody download the HBO GO App it seems like a crock of shit for BE

I've only seen ads on the Go App but don't know much about it.

I'm pissed at Time Warner cause my cable bill went up $5.00; 2nd time in a year. It went up $6.00 in Jan. 12.

I am mostly satisfied with TW but it seems like there are so many freekin' little charges in the bill that I can't figure out.


Sorry, wrong thread. I am waiting for BE to start though.


TIS

I watch it on the hbo go app on my hp touchpad every sunday, im on optimum online. The app is great.

Tonight's episode really started out with a bang no??




TIS

I can't wait for next week.

Tonight's episode was good the preview for the season finale looks even better. Richard is in a sticky situation I would think he'll get killed in the season finale.

Great episode!

I'm afraid of that, too.

Looks like an old fashioned gang war is brewing. The sides have been chosen and the lines drawn.

Great to see Capone as a potential white knight. Sure looks like Richard is gonna join with Nucky and Chalky (all the characters that I like on this show).

Did I mention that I hate that [BadWord] of a [BadWord], Gillian.

I don't want Richard to get killed. I like him. I hope he makes it.

I agree that Gillian is a real bitch and I hated the way she trashed Richard. She can go any time as far as I'm concerned. Plus, I feel sorry for her grandson.

It was a good episode tonight. Lot's of sh*t happening.


TIS

Jillian probably has a whales vag*na and shes the madam for cris sake I could see Richard running away with that women and maybe taking Tommy with him.

I don't understand why Luciano wouldnt have backup with him I guess Meyer having warned him he was on his on, but still that kinda money I'd want a few goons around me

It's always difficult to tell b/c the previews are deliberately misleading but it looks like there might be some fall out among Capone, Nucky and Chalky next week? Hmm.

And Richard is back in the game. That was a great shot with him laying out his guns. I really like the character. He's a murderer but he has a code.

I liked Eddie's non-answer to Nucky as to whether he knew of Margaret's infidelity. I also liked Nucky being taken down a peg by having to admit he didn't know Chalky's phone number or even if Eddie had a family.

One thing I haven't liked is how wrong they got Luciano, they made him look like some dumb sidekick nothing like how he was in real life!

^ ^ ^I support this statement 100%.Lucky was a real gentleman,the prince of darkness as some say,not some tuff talkin orangutan

I agree they make him seem like an idiot

I think Richard rides to Nucky's rescue even if it's not intentional.

Does Nucky call in a favor from that federal DA to get Luciano a deal?

I dunno. 1923 this is Luciano being mentored by rothstein. This is the drug deal that disgraced Luciano before he sold the tickets to the big fight in 1923. We will see Luciano as we know him I'm sure. I think it's good storytelling for this character to finally come into his own.


Also. Damn. Capone at the end there.
You and me sit down. Talk about who dies. Ah??

The best character is Greg Antonacci's Torrio. That guy is pure class and I hope they keep him in the show after he gets put into retirement. The rest don't strike me too convincing.

I think they're going to try and make that sour Cop the two Gusenberg brothers rolled into one. I dont know how they're going to pull it off or why but that's what's happening for sure.

I think Banion comes off like some kind of clown. He seems so prim and preppy like he's bout to break out in a ballerina pose or something. I know the guy had a flower shop but did they have to make O'Banion the hard nosed mick the most blooming flower in the Botanical Rose Garden. Give me a break!!!

It's like one of the producers saw that Jack 'Legs' Diamond flick from back in the day and decided that Jack flaying around the ballroom like a jackass was the way O' Banion was going to be in the flower shop.

I'd love to see Vannie Higgins get a break in a storyline. So many stories from this era have gone untold, there should be more New York and less Chicago.

We haven't even seen Owney Madden once yet, have we? What's that about?

DVR ALERT FOR TONIGHT'S (SEASON FINAL) EPISODE.

If you are recording the show make sure you extend the usual one hour recording time to 65 minutes. The episode tonight runs an extra five minutes.

WOW.... What a climax. I need a cigarette after that!

As I posted elsewhere, the "good guys" won just like I hoped. But what happened to the other two guys who were on the beach?

Yes it was a good episode tonight. LOTS of action. Jillian got hers (sort of). I thought she was gonna die. Richard really kicked ass didn't he? I hope he keeps the little boy. He shouldn't be around Jillian. Nucky seems to have new plan. Does he really forgive Margaret? I'm surprised for some reason.






TIS

There are no good guys they're all crooks!

TIS, he's evolved into a full-time gangster. Remember when Jimmy told him that he was only half a gangster?

Doesn't really matter, they were small potatoes.

It was a little trite how Chalky and Capone were at each others' throats but came around to end it amicably.

Richard Harrow was totally awesome! A one man war machine!!

Gillian got what she deserved.

Arnold Rothstein is being played as a prick. Should be interesting to see how the government goes after him next season.

Gyp..... dead.

SC,

I was hoping Richard would take a quick shot even after he was told to put the gun down (it just sounded like something he'd do. He's evidently a great shot). When he told the little boy to close his eyes, I knew he'd go for it.



TIS

Some random thoughts:

Gotta love Richard!!

It wasn't MUCH but I found a little sweetness in the fact that it was Tonino who killed Gyp. Payback for Tonino's cousin (who was buried up to his head in the sand a few episodes back).

I loved the treachery between Lucky Luciano and Arnold Rothstein.

Nucky sure came out smelling like a rose. About the only thing he didn't get was Margaret, but I suspect that will change next season.
