Boardwalk Empire
Tom:
Yes. New topic: is AMC killing HBO?
EDIT: I'm so glad they canceled Deadwood and Carnivale for shows like this.
David_Dovey:
If AMC isn't, then FX is. Louie on it's own is enough to blow anything HBO has out of the water.
It's a shame to hear that there's a lot of negative press regarding Boardwalk Empire, considering the talent on board.
Inlander:
I'm still watching every episode of Boardwalk Empire mainly out of a sense of obligation, but honestly I don't think I could be bothered watching a second season. The show's not bad, as such, it's just - not in any way engaging. I don't care about any of the characters. I couldn't really give a shit about what's going to happen to any of them. It's obviously been made with great care and attention to detail, but I feel like if you took away the period setting you really wouldn't have anything new in this show. And what the fuck, before the show started they were hyping Michael K. Williams to the hills and he's barely in it!
Basically Boardwalk Empire feels like HBO-by-numbers.

After my initial excitement I actually stopped watching after Episode 3 and haven't really felt any urge to start up again. Maybe after the whole season is finished I'll watch it all together but the pacing just slowed dramatically and it started to stagnate even that early on.
Aurjay:
actually did the same thing but i was home sick and bored so i watched the whole season up to know. Its actually really good and worth your time. Steve Buchemi is amazing and conniving. Margaret is also turning into a very interesting story. Jimmy is whatever but i like where his character is going.
