I take it as a very profound personal failure that I wasn't able to have a child in time for him/her to be the target audience of Girl Meets World.

It was. That was an outstanding episode. A lot happened. War, NJ and Rothstein vs the Dagos from NYC! And Nucky's got a distillary he's running for the (was it Attorney General? I thought they called him Secretary, but he's a judge, no?)? Brilliant!Vidor wrote:That was so satisfying.JL21 wrote:
Between Boardwalk Empire, The Walking Dead, and Homeland this week... I was in awe of all of them.

It's funny, I gave both this and Last Resort a few episodes. Last Resort started out pretty strong, but I gave up after 3 episodes. I have to admit Revolution has gotten much better. I still think the pilot wasn't very good because it didn't seem like things were that bad and it played like a bad SyFy channel movie, but they've now made it pretty clear how things got the way they are and things feel more real. The bad guys are still over the top - especially Monroe - but they've more or less explained that. There's a big Lost influence - similar music cues, and now the flashback sequences. I don't understand at all what happened with the Mom character though. Nothing seems very plausible.MrSaigon wrote:I'm not sure Revolution is going to work. I actually kind of like the girl as a character and actress, and they introduced a super hot chick in episode 2. But Gus Fring is pretty awful. And the badass uncle would be just sufferable except for the stupid lines he has ('Where are we going? A little place called shut the hell up.' There are some interesting storylines and I'm drawn to the concept, but it has corners to turn.

Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon. BWE is having a great season. I was worried after Jimmy died, but they've really taken the show to the next level. And it should only get better, as they're clearly marking the path for Capone to takeover for Torrio.robbotis wrote:It was. That was an outstanding episode. A lot happened.

It's really outstanding. I understood people who said it was too slow, but that was way back in Season 1. It did start slow. Now, it's just great. The dialgoue, stories, acting, cinematography, it's all just about perfect.longhornbaseball wrote:Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon. BWE is having a great season.

Steven Root and james Cromwell would be outstanding additions to any show. The guy who plays Rothstein- amazing. And Capone, is just perfect. The scenes w/ Capone and is kid were pure class.
