Boardwalk Empire

My fandom obsessions are few and far between these days but I'm currently hung up on Boardwalk Empire. It's got everything, scenery porn, historical fact mixed deftly with fiction, amazing acting and a ton of compelling characters. Not to mention more than enough gratuitous sex and violence to make me feel pretty awkward when I watch it with my mother. Oh well.

I've just finished watching season 3. (Actually I watched it twice and then skipped back through seasons 1 & 2 as well).Anyway, wow, what a rollercoaster that was. I've just about formulated some thoughts about it.... 
Allow me to gush. With spoilers:- )
