From the first moment of Boardwalk Empire’s Season Two teaser trailer, I’m hooked all over again.

It’s rare when an “event” television show with maximum hype lives up to anything close to what is (loudly) promised. If anything, Boardwalk Empire surpassed the hype.

"Never let the truth get in the way of a good story." - Nucky

HBO has released another trailer for Boardwalk Empire, and I must say this show is looking rather intriguing indeed.

Martin Scorsese. Steve Buscemi. Terence Winter. This is something to truly get excited about.
