Holy moly, shits getting real (and dark as shit).

Anyone else watching (or already) watched it?

Just finished watching it, very good show. Its very dark (which I love) especially when compared to the other comic book TV shows

Finally got around to watching the final season of Boardwalk, had forgotten how much I enjoyed the show.

Final season was pretty good I thought, but then the last episode left me wanting a bit more .. Maybe it was just that a few favourite characters fell by the wayside and a bit was left unanswered. All in all a brilliant show across the 5 seasons though.

The 20-something version of Nucky was fantastic for likeness.

I was a bit disappointed with that final season, particularly after the epic fourth season, but from what I read, the writers had no choice but to wrap it up quickly.

The best parts of the show were when they focused on the story lines of other characters, TBH I found Nucky's character to be boring in comparison.

Yeah it did feel rushed at times, and padded at others .. Rather than just steadily building up.

I didn't find out it was a shorter season til the second last episode, so that probably contributed to aspects of disappointment toward the final ep.

Finished the 3 seasons of Bates Motel, enjoyed it!
About to start Homeland Series 4 which I've heard is good.
Still haven't got around to watching Game of Thrones latest series, most overrated show on TV, but feel I should soon so the dumb chicks at work can have something to talk about as they don't want to spoil it for me! :lol:

I reckon the storyline has quite a number of decent twists, but Im not sure the production is as good as many of the HBO shows. That said, the storyline is always enough for me to want to know more, so it works for me lol.
