I am expecting these last 3 episodes to be fantastic.

I'm all for slow burns but I was growing weary a bit, if I'm honest. But there's always a well-placed spark. First, when they kill the four guys in Chicago. Second, the cabbie shooting the witness.

He really likes the ladies, the last few times Nucky has called on him to leave he was with a girl. I think it is setting something up.

I agree.

They've been inferring he's a ladies man for a reason to be sure......

A bit of a nod to Coppola, I think.

I look forward to this show every week. The one thing that I dislike is the overwhelming, heavy-handed sex. Other than that, every week I come away wanting to look stuff up. What was Warren Harding's mistress really like?

And was Harding's wife as scary in real life as she was in that episode?

That's annoyed me too. But to an extent, it also fits the characters.
