Boardwalk Empire, Season 3, Episode 6: “Ging Gang Goolie”
Written by Steve Kornacki
Directed by Ed Bianchi
Airs Sunday 9.00pm Est on Sunday
Ever since the sad departure of showgirl Lucy Danziger from the show in Season 2, leaving her baby girl to the tender care of Nelson Van Alden (which is a bit like leaving a baby in the tender care of a waterbuffalo), the position of ‘female character who is madder than a sack full of wet ferrets’ has stood vacant. Now, finally, we have a suitable replacement. Gillian Darmody – never the most stable of persons, apt to revenge herself on neglectful Sugar Daddies by lacing their food with arsenic – has steadily lost her marbles one by one as the loss of her son/lover Jimmy has gradually pushed her to the edge.

Boardwalk Empire, Season 3, Episode 3, “Bone For Tuna”
Written by Chris Haddock
Directed by Jeremy Podeswa
Airs Sundays at 9pm (Et) on HBO
Top moment this week: watching Bobby Cannavale and Gretchen Mol in their first scene together. It’s like watching a Great White and a cobra face off. Two entirely different but equally deadly creatures confront each other for the first time. They eye each other for weaknesses. They size up the best place to bite. They retreat to consider their options. It’s like Animal Planet in period dress.
If Cannavale as Gyp Rosetti is ably filling the large boots recently and sadly vacated by William Forsythe as Manny Horvitz – just watch Cannavale’s eyes go dead when he thinks Nucky’s careless reference to trees implies he is an ape – the rest of the male characters are lagging behind in the interest stakes.
