I still can't believe the wasted potential that was Boardwalk Empire

[head shots101]

Oh shyt, Tommy from Power

Oh shyt....fukk HBO for season 5 smh

We could’ve gotten at least two more seasons worth of material.

I’d say 3. There were plenty of characters to use.

Capone spinoff would have been lit.... But they just ain't follow through....

Boardwalk Empire was not about Luciano, Capone, Bugsy, Rothstein, etc.

I get really upset when these threads on the show get made and being upset that they didn't focus on other mobsters. That is not what the show was about. They all interacted, but it was never about that.

Saying that they really did foul up season five.

It wasn’t about that but they could have easily continued the story and had 10-12 seasons

Big missed opportunity

Produce a B+ show when you have the writing staff of the Sopranos and an all-star cast, brehs.

then it would have been called Meyer Lansky empire or Lucky Luciano Empire.

It was called Boardwalk Empire and it took place in Atlantic City and focused on Nucky Thompson.

That’s what im saying. They could have easily made a spinoff

You have Capone, Lucky, Lansky, Bugsy and the potential to bring more mobsters and HBO din't push the pedal.

That was the first chip I saw in their reign.

I bet you they seeing the #'s Better Call Saul is doing and they like "we had the stort of Lucky Luciano ffs "

The Lansky/Luciano spinoff woulda been piff. So many characters

Nucky was like the weakest. Amd Buschemi is not leading man material.

N1gga, I know what the story was about. Point was they coulda just killed off Nucky and the AC story amd focused on other characters and we would still be eating off piff .

Always bothered me that they ended this show so quickly. There was too much story to still be told for it to have been rushed to a close. Yet, garbage shows like 'True Blood' lasted 7 seasons....

Sadly, we're seeing it happen again with Game of Thrones.
