I don't have too much to add to what's already been said. That was a great episode, a hell of a way to start the season. I've kind of reached a point where I damn near hate-watch the show but more episodes like this week's would erase all of that. The stupid convenient pauses before they were going to off Glenn were annoying, but that's minor. And the same goes for the dopey convenient way that none of the gang got slaughtered. Rick, Glenn, Bob all survived.

I think that someone made the point that if the guy with the bat was left-handed the four main characters would have been killed. Is it wrong that I was secretly hoping Glenn would have been killed?

Also, it seems that Rick is the only one who learned anything from the Governor incident. Rick wants to go back and kill the rest of Terminus while they are weak, because if they don't, then Terminus will hunt Rick's group down and kill them. I kinda like this Rick.
This Rick is [expletive] rad. I have hated that character for various reasons since day one, but this guy is great.
Indeed. Let's hope it keeps up.

I'm still on the hook. Robin Lord Taylor is awesome as Penguin. I like Alfred. Gordon is OK. Weakest link by far is Jada Pinkett Smith.

The kid playing Young Nucky on BE is spooky good, but those prosthetic teeth are bothering me.

I haven't watched Gotham yet, but apparently he's the hippie redneck kid from Walking Dead who just got killed.

Isn't it purposefully a little superhero, tongue-in-cheek corny?

He's Steve Buscemi 2.0 it's crazy. The Rotten Tomatoes podcast on Boardwalk Empire said it's a British actor, and those are his real teeth!

And, the Walking Dead was outstanding. A little convienent at the trough, but otherwise it was just great.

He's a pretty good actor, at least playing a young Nucky. This season has been full speed ahead and awesome. they're wrapping things up well.
