Why did the last season of Boardwalk empire have to be so shit with the pointless boring flashbacks?
>>
>>72111563
so we could get vinyl instead.

>>72111563
Honestly the show lost itself after Jimmy died.
>>
I'm glad they skipped over pointless stuff like Rothstein's death so we could get awesome scenes like 30 minutes of kids swimming underwater trying to catch coins

Harrow always reminded me of fallout ghoul, would be nice hearing him say "hey smoothskin"

i thought the ending was pretty good desu, though the real enoch died of old age and it was his father who was the sheriff. kinda makes more sense to me i was hoping they wouldn't go for muh feels there.
>>
>>72111563
The flashbacks were great, what I hated is how they skipped like a season or two's worth of content.

>Atlantic City Conference
>Rothsteins death
>Lucky Luciano's near death beating which resulted in his scar and droopy eyes.
>Why the fuck was Chalky in prison?
>Rushed Maranzano.

Fucking Commodore, I always found it ironic Cephas Whitlock was played by Uncle June, because I always saw Commodore as someone Uncle June would have had wasted.

yea I only stuck on for a little bit after Jimmy died, he was solo carrying that show, and more than entitled to have a hissy fit about his treatment from the cast and production

Why didn't you save her?

>gillian darmody got the rawest deal out of everyone at the end

The rawest. LITERALLY the Sansa of BWE if Sansa grew up to be all batshit insane and twisted

>>72113442

I'd be alot more sympathetic towards her if she didn't straight up murder a guy

Not that I cared for Jimmy, but after that the show was way less compelling. Just introduce a new baddy and kill him off, rinse and repeat.

easily the most beautifully shot series on HBO
the flashbacks were essential OP they showed us the decisions characters made and how it shaped their future selves
>>
>>72111625
I like Jimmy a lot but I also think his death improved the show. Gyp was a needed character, Cannavale was maybe the most talented guest actor on the show and the other characters like Daredevil and Eli and his Kraut Butler made up for Jimmy's absence.

I'll just never forgive Winter for not giving us a proper goodbye to Michael Stuhlbarg. We never get to see him once in the final season what the fuck hombre? Maybe a few less scenes of that loopy cunt in the psych asylum and you could have fit in a voiceover or something fuck

All of those things actually happened though.
>Lucky gets arrested, and cooperates with the US government to keep NYC ports saboteur free, he later provides intel and local support for the allied invasion of Sicily.
>Meyer continues his crime syndicate loosely tied to the Italian mob, and violently breaks up US nazi rallies in the 30s. He is instrumental in getting Lucky involved in the war effort, for which his was eventually parolled and deported.
>Bugsy goes on to build up Las Vegas

This. Both Meyer Lansky and Lucianos actors were MADE for those roles. Plus I'd love to see more of Bugsy.
