The casting on this show. The young Mama Francis and Oz were spot on.

I like watching the directors take on the episode after the credits. They go into great detail about characters and the set. Great show with a lot of thought put into it.

When HBO does it right, they really do it right.

He’s probably going to kill his mom to get away or to save her her dignity. Or both.

Watched ep7 tonight.. frickin hell this show is so damn good.. other streaming services should take notes on how to make a series.. write a good story and don't let politics dictate the direction... Hate that only 1 episode is left.. give me 20 fricking more after this... I'd tune in religiously

The mom was Pearl on Boardwalk Empire. The prostitute that committed suicide after her face was cut up.

Yep HBO loves to reuse random actors/actresses like that

My only gripe in that entire episode was Sal's death. They somewhat make up for it with Oz's "the frick?" response and nearly emptying the clip in a dead body.

Was the intent to make a serious moment feel like a joke? I was thrown off by that.

At least we got a "I BEAT YOU!" call back to his line in The Batman.

I don’t know which one, but he’s definitely telling her the truth about his brother’s before it happens. He can’t let her go to her grave without telling her the truth, his ego won’t allow it.

Finale tonight. Bittersweet because I’m not ready for it to end.

My prediction for ending: Sofia gets the best of oz but winds up getting sent back to arkham because the little girl turns her in. Oz becomes number 1 gangster by luck.
