What I've learned about Boardwalk Empire during its fourth season is that Chalky White would have been a way more compelling lead protagonist than what Nucky Thompson currently is.

Tony Soprano, Vic Mackey, Al Swearengen, Don Draper, Walter White, and Chalky White :krs: reads way better than...

Boardwalk doesn't have, nor does it need at this point, a lead protagonist. I had made a post earlier in this thread saying that's what the show was missing, but I realize how wrong I was about that. They've managed to juggle a cast of characters bigger than any show since The Wire. And all of those characters and their story arcs intrigue me, even Gillians, now. I'll take a huge cast of terrific actors with intriguing storylines over a show based on one great lead anytime. That's why The Wire is the GOAT. Also why Game of Thrones is on its way to being in GOAT conversation. Boardwalk is absolutely killing shyt this year and we rarely see the same cast of characters in consecutive weeks. That's saying something. nikkas were hating on Harrow's story arc earlier this season, ignoring how incredible the character development they were doing was. Harrow's been a tragic character since day one. Seeing them delve into who he is, where he comes from, and his attempt at personal redemption has been ridiculously compelling regardless of him not busting his gun. We got to see a side of Chalky White these last two episodes that we've never seen. Van Alden refusing to lie about who he is while at the same time admitting his loss of faith in God was crazy. If Narcisse doesn't win an Emmy next season I'm playing the race card:birdman: Not to even mention Yung William da gawd:blessed: This show doesn't have to rely on one character to carry the reigns. The whole cast is amazing.

As for this episode, did Narcisse really make Daughter's mouthpiece obese like Della Reese?

Van Alden lets guns go off finally. He got no respect at home, no respect at the flower shop and no respect from Capone aka the guy who would make him push-up daisies in a second. Glad he turned full goon. Hopefully Capone won't push his muffin back. But think Capone sets up the whole thing with Frank Yale and used van Alden as a distraction.

Nucky is a fakkit. Straight up. Chalky made Jimmy's short tenure as boss a living hell by bycotting and going on strike. Chalky caught two of the Delussio brothers who were hired to kill Nucky. He took Nucky with a injured Eddie in, got his son in law to save Eddies life and got his side of town to muscle up against Rossetti when he really could have let those crackas murder each other up. Chalky has held Nucky down without question. But just like a fukking cracka, it's all what have you done for me lately. It's well my life is fine now thanks for the help magic negro, ima go back to treating you like a good house cat until I need you kill another mouse again. Nucky is a fakkit. No other word can describe him at this point. A fukking fakkit

But the DR has no fukks to give. None. Just waltz in the club sat front row and said I won't be treated like a ******. I applaud that. As much as it showed chalky having no control, it also showed Nucky couldn't control this uppity ass negro either.

Daughters got sonned. Rocked. Her wig combed. And his nikka leaves his daughters pre-wedding reshersal for this light skineed heffer. That's why we get caught. We let the new p*ssy drive us. Chalky is losing. But then we underestimated him before.

AR is on his last ropes. Early next season he gonna get plugged. Probably first episode. The downward spiral is daunting. He knows it. It's sad to see him fall.

Mickey should have been clipped. Even before jimmy. Glad they set that up.

Be reasonable mueller. Yea relax

I am relax. Blam blam blam blam blam

Gangsta Van Alden.

I used to being in god. But now, I don't believe in anything. Before he got his face ventilated, Deanie was shooked. Shout out to Yale. Brooklyn in the fukking house!!!!

diddn't narcisse say he wants to meet with masseeria? would love to see them together :ahh:

Both of them hate the shyt out of people who aren't like them lol. Would be fun to watch.

I never caught why Nucky and AR wants Doyle killed??

Insurance policy Rothstein has out on him for 500k. Nucky just doesn't like him.

whats roys angle and who was he talking to

That dude is a snake. You could tell from the moment he stepped into her life lol. Maybe he'll have as many mental problems as Gillian does.

I get all of that, but Nucky is still booked as the center of the show. It's an ensemble piece, but unlike Mcnulty, Tyrion etc, this dude Nucky has yet to take a backseat to anybody and is involved in three central storylines of the show. Buscemi is a terrific actor, and Nucky is a fine character and all, but he's not intriguing enough for him to be featured the way that he is. His character slows down tension when he should be escalating it. He's the calm before the storm, and that doesn't really make for a compelling character, especially the lead of one of the better dramas on tv.
