Don't want to drop any spoilers in case folks missed it last night but man what a great episode to start the season with.
I left off at season 2. I need to get caught back up asap. Loved this show
Fixed.You definitely should. Season 3 is pretty solid especially the last two episdoes. Season 4 looks like a doozy as well. Amazing how good the Knucky Thompson character is. The Harrow character is somehow evenbetterbest.
Finally caught it. Very good episode, however, grantland has a really good article about the loss if empathy in boardwalk.
Unfortunately I agree in large part:

I still thoroughly enjoy the show but...
Grantland's articles can tend to lean on the side of super pretentious, but I couldn't help but agree to a point.
One ancillary benefit of killing Darmody is that it freed Harrow up to become a wrecking ball. That said, there were other ways to unleash Harrow, many of which would have given rise to fascinating plot lines (imagine Darmody somehow crossing Harrow a la the Walt & Jessie angle in BB?).I dont necessarily agree with the article but the author is right about one thing, writing off the Jimmy Darmody character was a huge mistake. He was by far the best character along with Harrow and the possiblities of where they coudl have taken his character are endless. Hated how he was killed so early in the series.
