Season 1 and 2 are great. Seasons 3 and 4 are passable and by Season 5 HBO ran out of money for GoT and it shows.

It's flawed. It's not a masterpiece.
It's marred by the lead actor being a fuckwit junkie and having to be written off.
But there are moments of brilliance and in general it's very good. It's also extremely ambitious which is impressive to see.

It's definitely worth watching.

Yes,then meh,then no

Best story-telling in any televison show.

>It's marred by the lead actor being a fuckwit junkie and having to be written off.
Is that what happened? Buscemi wasn't supposed to be the lead?

Sopranos tier

I'm really not sure lol
I think it was clear that he was intended to have a bigger role than chrissie does in The Sopranos

The real sad part is that he was fantastic in the role

Nucky was always going to be the main character, but Jimmy was probably meant to hang around alot longer. Him and Paz de la Huerta (nuck's first whore) were pissed off from the show for being douches

poorman's sopranos. whoever thought buscemi could LEAD was fucked in the head. i did like some of the supporting cast, though.

the question is whether it's good and flawed or great

You should really check this pathetic need to quantify everything as amazing or terrible. You think Buschemi is terrible? You think just because it's not as good as literally the best show ever made, it's redundant?

he's not terrible but i felt bad for him because the writers obviously tried too hard with daddy issues, le deep introspective moments etc. i have nothing against steve.

>Buscemi can't lead

Imagine being this dull.

I think they wrote the role quite well considering buschemi's natural status as a character actor fucked up wierd beta guy

and that he was up for it

I was so glad when this nigga got ganked

you now remember gyp rosetti and how based he was

Trees Lounge
Parting Glances
Living Oblivion
Reservoir Dogs kinda

Trees Lounge is good

its ultimately about a pedo ring in good old times when wealthy fats acummulated land, when free market flourished and no gubbahment intervened

And people don't like S3. Gyp is hilarious

>based Gyp
>passable

He not in enough scenes.

an indie directed by him
a literally what indie
an indie

good? yes, probably. but boardwalk was a massive hbo project for big audiences.

And he was a great lead in it.

Was it autism?

Cameo in The wedding Singer is one of the funniest parts of the movie

Heroin smartypants supplier from new york that took over Chalky White's operation in Atlantic City. He told Luciano and Lansky to fuck off and got what was coming to him.

He had enough screen time to show him getting into auto-erotic asphyxiation on multiple occasions.

It's Nubian bruh.

it wasn't just that lol he was a cunt as well

JIMMY IS DEAD NIGGER, MOVE ON

>high functioning heroin addict

Buschemi was always a polititian, never a crook. He had crooks tho.
I like the finale a lot, a shame it was rushed.

Special mention to Nuckys brother, chalky and that insane\lucid cop that turns into a gangsta, superb progression. Many of the secondaries are amongst the best in any series, and the ambience is 10/10. Shame about its derive towards dull romantic drama in some parts, but it can get pretty intense. Hard to tell as i saw it on air, but its a solid 8/10, of course i surrendered to it and apreciate its virtues more than i hate its flaws.

Eli had a big turn around. S1 he was an evil prick, one of the good guys by the end

Its not auto if you have a woman choking you

It starts to detail after Jimmy kicks the bucket.

Yep, i liked him a lot. Helps that the actor had some other great secondary roles in the 2010s i guess, but in BwE he really shine.

Despite the controversy Michael Pitt did an amazing job. One of my favorite tv characters of all time.

I'm sorry but his kino performance was Mason Verger, probably didn't have to act and they just filmed him being a massive dick to everybody
