    Yeah, Sunday night.

    I love Buscemi, but I wonder if he can carry a show. He's one of the greatest supporting actors, or ensemble actors out there, but it will be interesting to see him play the lead.

    tony uncle-al :mrgreen: ....man i miss the sopranos


    i thought the same thing when i first heard about the show. it will be interesting indeed.

    the real life person his character was based off of was apparently a big dude and a ladies man.

    the point was they avoided going for that kind of look for the character. was he dancing on your desk or something?

  • Great first episode. A nice set-up for things to come. This show is very well done, obviously. Also, I think it's interesting it's an hour and 15 minutes. Only on HBO do you have a weekly show that has 75 minute episodes.

    Great first show. I think I can definately get into this. Looks like it will be one of HBO's top rated shows up there with the Sopranos and True Blood.

    I thought it was a solid first episode. Hopefully the rest are as good or better.

    I'm pretty happy with it. It is laying the foundation.
    When you watched the first episode of the Wire did you know you were watching what was gonna be the greatest tv show ever ;)

    Seriously though i was entertained and surely interested enough to come back again. I liked the charactors and look forward to seeing where this goes.

    Very well done series opener. I think this show is going to turn into a must see for me. I wasn't sure about Buscemi in that kind of role, but I think he pulled it off quite well. I'm looking forward to seeing how the show and it's plots play out.
