Can someone

[g-herm66 · 8/10 · 20 April 2023]

Run over Olympia with a large truck? Please! Olympia is such a despicable character. She does nothing but hate and smoke. She is an entertaining character but It would be nice if she died in a comical way. Maybe a statue could fall on her at church? Maybe someone kills her in the confessional?

I love the transitions from show to show and season to season. They are smooth and consistent. I don't see characters acting out of character like I see in many other shows these days.

This episode was nice to see bumpy in on the ground level. It's hard not to root for him.

Stella taking care of herself and is satisfying.

I started watching this episode with low expectations only because the firs two seasons were so good. Tough to maintain the same level of excellence. But the show does it and then some. Some of the best writing ever. While the show is ostensibly about organized crime in NY during the 60's, the show takes it to another level with the black/civil rights/political angle that captures the racial boiling points of NYC during the 60's. Conspicous by his absense in this episode is Vincent D'Onfrio as Chin Gigante (away in prison). In terms of the genre, I would rate this show the equal of The Sopranos, Boardwalk Empire, and Ray Donovan.
