I was a little nervous going into this season without Jimmy, but man, this season has been great. I thought Sunday's episode was fantastic.
I agree. I always found it enjoyable and entertaining and love the attention to detail, but this season it really elevated into being a great television.
The the last two episodes of the season were "edge of your seat" good. And is there any more awesome character in the history of tv than Richard Harrow? And by killing Jimmy last season you legitimately don't know whether the main non-historical characters are safe. Plus, the way they shot the scene where Richard went into the Artemis club was great.
Yah, the answer is pretty much "no". You can make a case for Walter White, Tony Soprano, Vic Mackey and Al Swearengen... but Richard Harrow is the guy. I thought the ending to Unforgiven was as-good-as-it-gets for eye opening, fully anticipated ass kicking. Now... I have to consider Harrow's video game-like clinical reaming of essentially all of Rosetti's crew. A 10 for artistic impression and execution (LOL) of the leaning one handed decapitation with the 30 odd 6 or whatever that scoped rifle was.
I was so waiting for this outburst too. Halfway through the episode I paused it and was like, "Where TF is Harrow?!?"
Here's to the most compelling silver screen character of this season IMO. I really hope he returns for S04 and remains a featured player.
Finally caught up in episodes last night...While watching Harrow go off on Rosetti's crew I was sitting there getting pumped up and saying to myself F-ya Harrow kill those !! That dude is an un-assuming bad-ass. The only thing I am wondering is if they are going to have go off on his own story in the serie. If he stays in A-City will he be anti or pro Nucky? Also, couldn't wait until Rosetti got killed off, that dude was definitely a psycho!! The character you know will be around are Nucky, Lansky, Luciano, Capone, etc., the true historical characters. The others are up in the air and better watch their backs.
Great show, wish the seasons were longer though, feels like this season just started and is allready over. Lot of ways they can go next year, perhaps Knucky waring with Rothstein or Massarea or maybe a new character comes into play. Would also like to see them shake things up with Lansky, Luciano etc, one of them getting killed off and breaking historical accuracy would be interesting.
