Did you check out the premiere of Boardwalk Empire last night?

Directed by Martin Scorsese and with the jittery bug-eyed Steve Buscemi in the lead this could only be good.

However, I couldn't help thinking of the 'Beer Baron' episode on The Simpson's. There is a character on Boardwalk Empire who looks based on Rex Banner!


"To alcohol. The cause of, and solution to all of life's problems."


One of the greatest episodes ever in my opinion.

Here it is in full. Picture is a bit ropey, but if you have twenty mins spare it's worth the eye-squinting.
