I watched episode 6 last night, and thought it was excellent! Easily one of my favorite episode so far through all 5 seasons. Great scenes with some of the best characters. Capone was awesome, Van Alden was awesome, Chalky and Narcisse both had great scenes. They finally provided some decent background info on Gillian.
I really like their casting choice for the new, young, 20-something Nucky. I don't think they could have found a better actor to portray a young Buscemi / Nucky. The kid nails it!
Yeah ep6 was pretty ridiculous. Really liked the Van Alden part, was less happy about the Chalky parts.
My only complaint about the 'young nucky' actor is his fucking teeth. They look comically oversized for his body and don't look like what Buchemi has at all. If those are his real teeth then apologies on my end of but if they're for the role, it's way overdone imo.
The Gillian stuff was interesting but honestly I don't give a shit about her storyline at all.
