I'm still kinda torn up that Nucky killed Jimmy instead of Eli. Like wtf dude? I didn't like Jimmy's actor very much but I liked the character. Sad to see him go. On the other hand, the guy who plays Eli is phenomenal but I fucking hate Eli lol

And they had to kill the Butcher too? God damnit. Should have killed Jimmy's mom, Richard.

All in all, amazing show. I binged it to this point in about a week and a half.

He was in S3E1. Guy looks familiar, pretty sure he was in S2 of Master of None and a bunch of other things. I like what his character brings to the table but I hope he isn't just "bad guy who gets mad at little shit" like he was in the first episode lol

Bobby Cannavale single-handedly carries S3 on his back. Buscemi and everyone is still good, but without Jimmy, Nucky's character is never the same imo.

I loved Boardwalk but without spoilers, imo the show is never the same without Jimmy. The story never recovers.

Jimmy really was a big part of Nuck's story. I can see the story taking a hit because he died. My girlfriend and I both really don't like the actor who played him but we were pretty upset that he died. That connection between James and Nuck made for great story telling.

My brother said the series falls off after season 2. I hope that's not the case but I can honestly see it happening now after the season 2 finale.

Ah, I thought it was s4 that he came in. He definitely has an almost comically short temper but throughout the season he is a great character, and the season ends with an awesome episode

Nah, it's still pretty damn solid throughout IMO. The only thing is that the last season suffers from HBO's usual less-episode-itis.

This. He plays it very over-the-top, but he's so committed to his performance, it really worked for me. I couldn't take my eyes off him.

TC, imo, I do find the series falls off after S2. Season 3 is just ok imo, but Bobby saves it in my opinion. Season 4 is terrible and basically pointless. The last season takes the show and story in a somewhat different direction, but it worked for me. I thought it was clever how they do it.

I don't want to stay too much because I don't want to spoil anything. But it's worth your time to stick it out. The show never recovers after deciding to kill off Jimmy, but it's worth seeing through.

Oh I'll definitely finish it. I'll probably finish within the next 2 weeks. Glad I started. Sucks to hear the 4th season wasn't too good.

For sure. Maybe you'll enjoy S4 more than I did. But S5 is good. Let me know when you're done, would be interested in hearing your thoughts

Will do. I've heard great things about the last season from a few people so I definitely am looking forward to it
