I find myself having to think pretty hard about whats going on too haha.... almost too many story lines going on at once to keep track of. Not to mention they drop them for a couple episodes (ie: Chalky White or Eli killing) only to bring them back at some point.

Yeah. Remonds me a lot of The Sopranos. Stick with the main character story lines from episode to episode, but also have decent side stories that come and go from episode to episode.
The character development in this show is outstanding as well. They really let you get to know all the characters without boring the hell out of you.

except in Boardwalk there's not an awful lot of horrible fluff like there was in the Sopranos in the later seasons.

Horrible fluff?
Loved that show to death, so I am biased, but I'm not sure what you're referring to.

Yeah, I'm not sure what horrible fluff he was referring to either. If anything, there was some cheesy-cliche mob movie fluff in the early seasons, but in the later seasons? Not that I can think of.
It's hard to beat the Sopranos in my book.

Pretty awesome episode; glad to see things might be starting to turn in Nucky's direction (or are in the works) and things are going downhill for Jimmy. Plus, Van Alden found a nice lady to care for the kid, so all in all, a pretty feel good episode. (I don't think anyone got shot/murdered for once!)

Interested to see what's in store in Belfast, something with the IRA I assume.

Love the way Nucky is going about this. Lull his opposition into thinking he's given up. Good bit of advice from Rothstein. Jimmy not looking like he's enjoying the responsibilities that go with being top dog.
Really looking forward to rest of this season. There is going to be plenty of blood shed, and some main characters likely aren't going to make it much further.
Next episode is called "Battle of the Century". Sounds promising.

First an awesome episode of The Walking Dead, and then a killer episode of Boardwalk Empire.
Jimmy is a disaster as boss, and he got his wife killed.

Holy moley what a crazy intense episode; so much happened in terms of story progression. So wait, just to confirm (as I semi-skipped through due to grossness), Jimmy joined the Army because he did his mom?

That was probably the creepiest hour of TV I've ever seen.

CRINGE! That whole hour was nails on the chalkboard.
"They aren't going to, are they? Are they? Oh no, THEY ARE!"
You could see it from a mile away, but still.
That show sure keeps you on your toes. I thought it would be about Mr. Half-face and Jimmy killing the butcher.

the last 2 episodes have been nuts, so many different things are going on. Jimmy's wife and father are dead, he ####ed his mom, Van Alden is a fugitive, and it looks like the end between Nucky and Margaret. this show is not content with playing it safe, that's for sure. the plot has jumped so far ahead it's easy to forget that this is only the 2nd season
and i knew that Jimmy's relationship with his mom was "different", you could just see it in how she acted from the first episode that there was something more there

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't his mom hook up with his wife as well back in the first season? Talk about creepy....

i would have definitely remember so if that were the case. i'm still a little sad that the cute lesbian is dead, but she did have a lot of slow and pointless scenes so in the end it's good

Been a great season so far.
Can't believe next week is already the season finale.
Should be an exciting episode.
