I don't know what you mean.
How are you getting from point A to point B. Margaret's deceased husband was physically abusive to her. Nucky hasn't laid a hand on her. I didn't write anything about Irish stereotypes. Nucky is of Irish descent but the goon that beat Margaret was of German descent (Hans Schroeder). The children did witness some abuse and likely would have witnessed more absent Nucky's intervention.

Van Alden's wife is Norwegian. The actress playing her, Christiane Seidel, was born in either Germany or Denmark I believe.


My bad, I somehow thought she was supposed to be Dutch. Thanks for explaining.

I noticed that one of the Senators on that board was actually bribed himself by Nucky.

Man I didnt;t like Vincent Piazza when he had the small role on The Sopranos.
But damn i really like him as Luciano.
Cant wait for the climax of the castellamarese war

Stephen Graham as Capone is frickin awesome.
In the first season, when Jimmy introduces himself to this nameless driver, and he replies "i'm Al. Al Capone." Shiiit that's when i knew this was my show man.

Shit's gettin down now.
Also Michael Shannon is a boss, and dude who plays Rothstein is such an awesome talent (Also knows alot more than the shows creators expected about Rothstein, they actually refer to him for info sometimes)

I wasn't a huge fan of last night's episode. The stuff with Margaret's son bores me. I don't get how Margaret cheats on Nucky out of guilt. confused

I did like the Daugherty sub-plot and Nucky's planned countermove.

To be honest not liking this season as much as 1 and 2. I really do like Boardwalk, but I'm re-watching the Wire at the same time and they don't even compare.

I wasn't that into last night's episode either. Jimmy's mom found a Jimmy look-a-like? Now, she doesn't know that Jimmy is dead right?

Not quite sure why Margaret's son is starting fires (or is he)?

Walking Dead was way better IMHO. smile

I think she knows Jimmy is dead but didn't want to admit it. But finally she was ready to accept it, hence the removal of Jimmy's pics and the seduction of Jimmy 2.0.

Do you remember Nucky setting fire to his father's old house? The boy started enjoying setting fire after that. He did that last season as well and got punished for it.

I'm starting to notice that the character of Nucky is starting to flesh out sort of like Tony Soprano. What i mean is, the second half of The Sopranos seemed to deal with how Tony being just Tony had a negative affect on everyone around him (directly/indirectly). It seems to me that this is the case with Nucky.

the show has been a little boring recently for me... too much many subplots going on that stray from the main show imo hope they flesh some of these out soon enough

Sort of a "family" theme tonight (of sorts). Nucky's family reunion seemed to hit a sentimental nerve with Nucky & Margaret no? And Richard's dinner at Julia's turned into a fiasco didn't it? Richard still remains somewhat mysterious to me. Oh, and WTF is with Julia's father? What an asshole. He was so mean to the little kid (and everyone for that matter) mad

And Gillian? OMG. WHY did she do that? uhwhat (I'm thinking Jimmy fits in that plan somewhere)

Simple. She's gonna have it appear that the guy who died was Jimmy. It'll look like he OD'd. She'll have a funeral and then get the home.

Good show. I love any scenes with Richard.

More to come later (gotta eat something).

Ah ha!! That's what I was thinking too but I'm not sure how'll she'll do it. The episode ended with the "girls" screaming upstairs and I assumed it was because they found the body. How she'll spin the yarn, I'm not sure. confused Boy, she sure is an evil bitch isn't she? lol

Btw SC, how's the weather there? Everything ok so far?

That's why he ate dinner in the kitchen while everyone else ate in the dining room. He had to take his mask off to eat.

Last season, when he was going to kill himself in the woods, he took the mask off and a dog ran away with it. Remember that?

I'm thinking Nucky will have to be suspicious of what's going on and probably somehow find out Jillian was involved. Maybe he'll use it against her in some way or hold it over her head. Don't know, but should be interesting.

Tonight's episode Nucky's being told that Jimmy drowned at his mom's house in the bath tub. He's totally baffled. lol He's gonna hold it over Jillian somehow I'll bet once he adds it all up.
