It's kind of interesting that the Jimmy character seems to blame Nucky more for "pimping his mother" than he blames the Commodore for sleeping with a thirteen year old.

And I don't think Eli is thinking straight.

And Angela cutting her hair after Jimmy had told her how much she liked it was just mean.

Oh yeah and it was funny with Van Alden primping and trying to look super busy when he thought it was Margaret who had come to see him. Then he looked SOOOOOOOOOOOO disappointed when it was Lucy.

I think I missed something. How much she liked what, cutting her hair? Why would it be mean?

I must say I wasn't quite pleased with the ending. It all went too easy, no tension at all, no great climax.

I'm defintely interested in the new season, but not with great enthusiasm.

Ooops that was a typo on my part.. frown one little letter.. it should have read "how much he liked it".

Remember in their heart to heart he was telling her about how when he was overseas he thought about her long hair. While he was telling her all this he was stroking her hair.

Then she goes and chops it off. Seems like a bit of a rejection.

Makes me sad when any woman cuts off her long dark beautiful hair. Mrs. Mark is a dead ringer for Marie Osmond's sister (if she had one) and knows it would break my heart if she cut off her gorgeous locks!

Thanks for clearing this up. I think she did this to break with the past because she and Jimmy had agreed to 'start fresh'.

My wife said this as soon as she saw she cute her hair. She cut it because he liked it.

Interesting little article on the actor who plays Nelson Van Alden on "Boardwalk Empire"

MICHAEL SHANNON arrived at Frankies Spuntino in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, and avoided the busy back room, preferring to slip into a lone table up front. But at 6 foot 4 with a giant noggin topped off by a brow that could serve as a balcony, he’s tough to miss. Add in the fact that he has been nominated for an Academy Award (“Revolutionary Road”), is currently starring in a bravura one-man show off Broadway (“Mistakes Were Made”) and finished a season as a vividly conflicted character in a big cable series (HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire”), and his days of landing unnoticed are over. The table in front hangs out over the sidewalk, with a kind of proscenium above it, and passing Brooklynites couldn’t help but stare: Oh yeah, that guy, the big, scary one.

Mr. Shannon didn’t seem to notice the looks, but he understands the short-hand, some of which derives from his role in “Revolutionary Road.” He played a hulking mental patient who bellowed truths amid the suburban banalities that overwhelmed the characters played by Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. “Plenty of people are onto the emptiness,” he says at one point, “but it takes real guts to see the hopelessness.” Dialogue doesn’t get much darker than that, but it emerged naturally from Mr. Shannon.

“I’m just kind of odd,” he said, settling in as the food arrived. “There are dark forces in the world, and if you pay attention to what’s going on around you, you end up incorporating it into the storytelling. Maybe it’s some aspect of myself that’s coming through that people are seeing, that I am in fact a quiet psycho.” His gentle, nonpsycho smile suggests he finds humor in the typecasting.

“My dad used to say, ‘You have to become part of the machine to beat the machine,’ and there’s some validity in it,” he said. “But honestly, even when I’m inside the machine, you still see me. I stick out a little bit.” .....

It's already being broadcast here in the Netherlands. But I was fortunate for seeing the episodes much earlier, about at the same time they were being broadcast in the United States.

Thanks for the heads-up, BAM.

William Forsythe is a good actor. After seeing him in "Gotti", though, I can't see him in any other role (he even looks a lot like Sammy Gravano).

I'm looking forward to watching the new episodes.

Dominic Chianese will appear in half of the new season as character Leander Whitlock. His new character is a contemporary of the Commodore (Dabney Coleman). Supposedly Chianese will be hard to recognize.

The new season premieres September 25th. smile

Jimmy/Pitt carries this show, Nucky/Buschemi is supposed to, but Jimmy's character is so much more interesting and better done. I love how broken Richard Harrow is, his extreme flaws make people like him even though he is a sociopathic killer. He's one of my favorite characters, but I do tend to like broken people.

I'm just in love with Kelly MacDonald who plays Mrs. Schroeder. I spied her in another film the title of which I can't remember. Her voice and accent makes me melt.
