I guess anything is possible, but knowing they have another season lined up and how the entire show is based around Jimmy and Nucky, hard for me to believe anything major is happening to them this season.
If Nucky goes to prison, I guess the next season could pick up years later after his release, or someone does something to have him released. I dont know.
By the way the show is loosely based on the real Nucky. Not sure if everyone knew this already.

Been following it pretty closely this season. Great writing and not even the least bit boring. I just wonder if it's necessary for EVERYONE to hook up. Just when I get immersed in the realistic intrigue and political maneuvering, casual sex between two unlikely characters pulls me right back out.
- Speaking of "unlikely," this gripe is surely a sign of my advancing age.Handel

Got this from ukit's link above: http://www.salon.com/2011/11/28/…
"A shocking twist highlights the drama's inability to make space for great female characters"
I was actually thinking the same thing. It seems like they're not sure what the hell to do with the female characters. They're all pretty interesting....just as intriguing as the men (in my opinion, anyway), but still...there's something missing. Like they're all ultimately ruined by what's going on around them.
- < Mainly for this season. There are still plenty of bad-ass moments from all characters.Jaline

Yeah that intro sucks. It doesnt fit the show at all. 3 more episodes left. I know it got approved for a 2nd season, I wonder how far off that is.
- Reminds me of the intro for Entourage for some reason, lolukit
- The music is weird, it keeps stopping then starting, and the style doesnt reflect AC or the 20s.CygnusZero4

It's not just casual sex between random people. There's story reasons why that stuff is going on.

They had very specific and logical reasons for killing him. He was dead inside, between his betrayal of Nucky, the guilt of his wife being killed due to his recklessness, killing his own father, his mothers manipulation of him, and said many times he never really came back from the war.
- so funny with how they write as they go and they have to let actors know they are being killed off nowteh

Coming out on bluray soon. Not sure about DVD. Probably the same. Check amazon maybe.

That was so odd I thought it was Steve Buscemi for about a minute.

I was standing up watching this whole episode. Although I noticed somethings. Nucky was gonna shoot Chalky but that dudes head got in the way, what a douche. Al showing up was one of the best points of the series. Finally good for him to step out into his own.

- Did they play this song during the credits? It got cut off on my DVR.CygnusZero4
- It's what Gyp was singing in his final sceneukit2

intro aside ... the scope of the show with its visual fx, cinematography costumes and actors is top-shelf.

Chalky was arrested? I need to rewatch season 5. I'm w ewo, the bs flashbacks, trying to tie everything together and being over literal degrades the shows original spirit, integrity and depth.
