Holy fuck me up the ass and take my anal virginity WHAT AN EPIC FINALE!

Excellent ending.

Not gonna lie......I got emotional at the end....I won't spoil it but MAN......some great stuff.

Why this show and these characters are not getting noticed is beyond me. Some award winning acting in this show, and in this particular episode.

Superb season finale!!
Agreed. It is a thinking mans show, with some good action.

Prohibition will be over soon: Boardwalk Empire has a series end date. This year’s fifth season of HBO acclaimed period drama will be its last. The network made the announcement at the Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena on Thursday, confirming recent rumors.

Michael Lombardo, president of programming at HBO, praised series creator Terence Winter and assured critics the show would have a strong conclusion: “It has been an incredible honor to bring this powerful and groundbreaking series to our subscribers,” he said. “Terry Winter has created one for the ages.”

It's had a good run.

Although I'm wondering why they've decided to cut it off at five. I think six seasons would be perfect.

Otherwise a very solid show.

One of my favorite shows for sure!

Great portrayals of such legendary characters as Al Capone, Nelson Van Alden, Rothstein, Meyer Lansky, Richard Harrow and Gyp Rosetti!

 :D ;D


Would have loved seeing Dr Libyan try to make business with Gyp Rosetti! That discussion would have been a meltdown :D

Probably a combination of lower ratings, and the cast wanting to move on to other things. I've heard that Winter wants to move more into feature film writing.

It would be a shame if it was just about lower ratings, as the dip was not that huge, and and besides Game of Thrones, HBO's line up is a bit soft. Game and True Detective are the only things that look good on it, with the ending of Board.

Lots of stuff ending this year Mad Men, Sons of Anarchy, Boardwalk Empire, Treme, True Blood, etc....

Mad Men is AMAZING.

I also like Sons of Anarchy and would enjoy more seasons, but True Blood has gotten stupid. It needs to go now. It was so epic the first two seasons and went downhill.

It' for the better.  I like that these networks aren't afraid to end a series before it goes stale.  Unlike shotime, who botched Dexter, Homeland, etc...

SOA has to end......there's no recovering from the last season.  Too much happened.

I thought Dexter ended at the perfect season. However , with that being said, I thought the last season was done quite poorly. Especially the way it ended.

The problem, outside of the horrid finale, was that each season someone new would know Dexter's secret......and be perfectly OK with it.   It got to be pretty stupid.

I would have like to see him killed, but Shotime wouldn't do that and limit potential future dollars.  They robbed us of potentially intense stuff - Angel finding out about Laguerta, etc.....stuff like that.

You are completely right. I never even thought about that, but you mentioning it has completely hit the proverbial nail on the head for me.

This is what started to bring the show down. I actually thought the way they played it with Deb finding out was okay. But it did get to be ridiculous.

I agree how Deb finding out was fine, I think that was how the book series went.  But the series went past where the books did, I believe, and you could see it suffer.  It was also a victim of its own success - seasons 1 and 4 were EPIC.

Agreed on both counts. The trinity killer was superb.

I sorta liked season 2 as well.  :)

Boardwalk Empire skips ahead seven years for its final season as the show jumps right into the Great Depression. According to creators, the year is 1931, which means Nucky Thompson is still doing his thing, running alcohol during Prohibition.

The trailer suggests a death, a rather important one and a whole lot of loneliness. Boardwalk Empire returns in the fall. Can’t wait.
