boardwalk empire is the biggest heap of wasted potential of a show in history

had legendary characters, cool time period, gangsters, etc. and they fukked it up

darmody was easily the best character. nucky was a child pimping piece of shyt

they had to kill jimmy bc he was becoming more popular than the main character

Yeah but Chris was killed IN THE LAST fukkING SEASON. Lowkey it just seems like the writers on boardwalks season 2 just weren't that good

Michael Pitt is a brilliant actor but there are all kinds of stories about him being hard to work with. He freaked me out in funny games, I could easily see how someone that talented could have issues, especially if drugs were in the mix like it was reported.

And even then, the character had crossed a line that couldn't be forgiven...maybe if Pitt was a little easier to work with he would have stuck around for another season, maybe even half...but dude had that shyt coming.

I gotta go with Jimmy....but I can't even say it's the fault of "Boardwalk".

Michael Pitt was cast as Mason Verger on "Hannibal", absolutely killed the role in season 2....then when it was time to do season 3 he basically said "no thanks".

Apparently the guy is kind of a dikk head.

I loved Gus... He wasn't even a villain... He seemed like would be cool with no killing Walter. Walter looked at him like a threat and wanted to be a boss but at anytime did Gus say I'm gonna kill you outright?!



Keep in mind this was after Walt:

1. Went to Gus's house with a gun and tried to kill him.
2. Tried to get Mike to turn on Gus.
3. Ran up in Los Pollos and tried to catch Gus in his office.
4. Had random women clean Gus's meth lab, leading to their deportation.
5. Called the cops on Tyrus.
6. Got drunk and convinced Hank to keep searching for Heisenberg, leading to the Gus investigation.

I'm not saying Gus wasn't thinking about killing Walt anyway....but Walt acting like a fukking lunatic all season didn't help things.

Season 3 was kinda the show runners figuring out how to make the show compelling again. By Season 4 of Boardwalk Empire they found the replacement character they needed (Dr. Narcisse) and wound up doing their best season. I put BE Season 4 up against any other series' single season, it was that good. Fukkin' A++!

:snoop: Your reading comprehension is terrible.

I forgot,the only reason I condoned Walt's tomfoolery all these seasons was because of the explosive results
I'm due for a rewatch though:wow:
