But ...I knew Van Alden was compulsive and sadistic. But I never knew he was a masochist. He is seriously twisted. <br /><br />I think they are still laying the groundwork for some epic episodes. We've gone from AC to New York and Chicago. Liquor, gambling, dope, whores, murder and a sadomasochistic Fed? This is going to be a massive gangster story.<br /><br />We've only seen one character fleshed out with Van Alden. Give it some time, adjust to the starkness of the period like you did with Deadwood.

I quess I'm no...I've watched every episode. I quess I'm not on the same page. I can't get into it like I did the Sopranos or Deadwood. I'm still watching it though, and your right, this episode has kept me watching another week. I just dont get the agent flogging himself though. Just because he's into pain, or punishing himself for not being there for his wife?aroundthecornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10618937005669670424noreply@blogger.com
