Just hated season 5 and wish I hadn't watched it. If there had been more episodes I wouldn't have finished it. It ended the only way it could and that's just a shame.
It's good, but could have being great.
Truly amazing show! I just binge rewatched it all for the first time since watching when it released. There is definitely something to be said for the enjoyment being increased when binge watching something like this. Nukky Thompson is one of my favorite characters of all time, and I have to put the show as my number 1 as well. The only downside to Boardwalk Empire is it felt like it was cut short, like way too short. Season’s 1-3 are absolutely goated, season 4 & 5 were good but felt like a different show almost. The final season was even cut down to 8 episodes which is so sad. There was an insane amount of content and story telling left to be done but instead they jumped ahead 15+ years from season 4 to 5. This is one of the rare shows that could have easily gone 10 seasons but everyone wants to start new projects, etc. I only wish the would have continued the path of growing more storylines with all the different mobsters, politicians, etc. I don’t think I will ever see a show this well made again in my lifetime. I cannot wait until my kids are old enough so I can rewatch it with them as well. Hats off to HBO for another amazing series, they have the best series of all time (Oz, The Wire, The Sopranos, Entourage, GoT, Big Love, True Blood, The Leftovers, Treme, Succession, and many more). If you have not watch all of them I highly encourage it!
Just about to watch for the second time.First time it was superb,one of my top ten shows of all time.
