This new series is starting early next year on HBO. It looks great, it has all the elements of awesomeness I have come to expect from HBO.
"Boardwalk Empire (http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/la-ca-boardwalk29-2009nov29,0,4335873.story)."
The series, which traces the rise of corrupt quasi-fictional politician Nucky Thompson, comes with an impressive pedigree: Martin Scorsese serves as executive producer and directed the pilot. The show was created by Terence Winter, a "Sopranos" writer who recruited much of the crew from that program to join him, and stars Steve Buscemi as Thompson. The cast also includes Michael Shannon ("Revolutionary Road"), Michael K. Williams ("The Wire") and Gretchen Mol, who plays a showgirl who has a history with Nucky.
Here is a pretty cool vid (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/showtracker/2009/11/your-first-peek-at-the-making-of-hbos-boardwalk-empire.html) of the set being built in Brooklyn.
My expectations are exceeding what can reasonably be offered.
