HBO has uploaded two hilarious new Boardwalk Empire-related videos on YouTube. The videos relate to the relationship between Nucky & Eddie, and the eccentric Mickey Doyle.
Here’s Nucky and Eddie’s clip:

And here’s Mickey’s:

Author’s Note: I absolutely loved these clips. Putting them together was a great way to remind viewers just how light-hearted and funny the show can be along with its serious and realistic overtones. Personally, while initially hating him, I have grown to love Mickey for what he represents; a conniving, nervously eccentric weasel who can never die. I really hope that this running gag continues, as it somehow hasn’t gotten old yet. As for Nucky and Eddie, well that relationship speaks for itself!
The new season premieres on September 8th at 9PM.

I love the relationship between Eddie and Nucky. Although, I wish Nucky would be a little more respectful of Eddie. I mean, does it take something drastic – such as Eddie taking a bullet in the gut – for Nucky to realize that Eddie is a most loyal and hard working man? In a way, through the tragedy, I’d like to think that Nucky now sees Eddie, as a man with a family, and not just his manservant.
There was a guy in a course I took who also did that kind of giggle after every sentence he said. He became known as “laughing Louie”.
