The fifth and final season of Boardwalk Empire follows embattled Alantic City politician Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) as he confronts the demons of his past and strengthens his foothold in smuggling goods illegally back and forth from Cuba. Elsewhere, gangster Al Capone's behavior becomes increasingly erratic as the feds close in, and Chalky White struggles to evade law enforcement and avenge the death of his daughter.

The third season of this horror anthology series is set primarily at a secret school for witches in New Orleans. After an absence in Season 2, Taissa Farmiga returns to the show as Zoe Benson, a young woman who unexpectedly discovers that she possesses a dangerous supernatural ability. She's sent to the special Louisiana school--which is run by Headmistress Cordelia Foxx (Sarah Paulson)--where she embarks on spell-filled adventures with fellow witches Madison Montgomery (Emma Roberts), Nan (Jamie Brewer) and Queenie (Gabourey Sidibe). Jessica Lange is also back as Fiona Goode, a powerful witch chasing eternal life, while Evan Peters plays frat boy Kyle Spencer in his return. Other familiar faces include Denis O'Hare and Lily Rabe, while newcomers Kathy Bates and Angela Bassett bring fresh excitement to the talented cast.

Season 4 of the Prohibition-era drama opens in February 1924 as Nucky (Steve Buscemi) makes peace with New Yorkers Masseria (Ivo Nandi) and Rothstein (Michael Stuhlbarg), moves into the abandoned Albatross Hotel and, coincidentally, spreads his wings with a potential real-estate bonanza in Florida, where he's smitten with a saucy barkeep (Patricia Arquette). Back in Atlantic City, Chalky (Michael K. Williams) runs the boardwalk's Onyx Club, though the mysterious Harlem intellectual Dr. Narcisse (Jeffrey Wright) challenges his North Side reign, and Eddie (Anthony Laciura) finally gets a promotion. In Philadelphia, Eli's son Willie (Ben Rosenfield) dives in over his head at college; while in the Midwest, Nelson (Michael Shannon) pulls double duty for Chicago mobsters Capone (Stephen Graham) and O'Banion (Arron Shiver), and a wandering Richard (Jack Huston) reconnects with his roots. With Shea Whigham, Brian Geraghty, Ron Livingston, Margot Bingham, Anatol Yusef and Domenick Lombardozzi.
