Fall TV 2010: Zap2it's 13 Must-See Shows

No. 2 'Boardwalk Empire'

It's about time that Steve Buscemi achieved leading-man status as Nucky Thompson, ruler of 1920s Atlantic City, aka The World's Playground. The supporting cast is similarly fantastic, from Kelly MacDonald to Michael Pitt. We're also suckers for a well produced period drama, and Prohibition-era action with gangsters, moonshine and loose morals is just the thing we want out of HBO. We'll drink to that!
