I was in the standoff scene against Chalky, as one of Gyp's bodyguards. I have to say not only a great actor but was a really nice gentleman.

I hate that Chalky lost to Narcisse. I get it, Chalky wasn't as well connected or as sadistic. Chalky let his emotions get the best of him.

Narcisse was a snake. He poisoned his own community with drugs while pretending to be "civilized" whereas Chalky DID actually care about Black folks. Saddly, he let his emotions, ego and lust over a club girl be his downfall. Nuck even tries to point out that he has a wife and kids at home, but Chalky didn't heed this advice. My man was done dirty in a back alley, even though Nanarcisse got his as well. I'd still have liked for Chalky to have come out on top

Man was more loyal to Nucky than he was his wife 😂

Chalky was an original character and the writers did him wrong. Dr Narcisse I hated because he claimed to be all about empowering the black community while being a drug pusher.

I hate the way chalky was treated. Favorite character. RIP

Chalky was to boardwalk empire, exactly what Omar was to the wire. Even his short appearance on the sopranos highlights how good he plays the intelligent bad-ass with a heart of gold. You see his scar, hear him talk, and think "look at this ghetto P.O.S". Two episodes later, he's you're favorite character.

One of the best characters in the show hands DOWN. And how they depicted the Black Community in the 20’s is just utterly amazing. Top 3 character in the show if not my favorite.

Chalky may have been a criminal and a stone cold killer, but in is own way he was also a fair, loyal and decent man. Never a liar. He was always out there to help out his own people. Dr. Narcisse was the exact opposite. He pretended to be everything that Chalky actually was but in reality he was nothing but a lying snake and had zero problems exploiting his own people just to get what he wanted. Great video man.

Much deserved spotlight on an integral character to a fantastic television series.

Chalky chastised Purnsly by saying "All this for a little jelly?!?" When he messed up and killed that guy, but then Chalky pretty much did the same thing and ended up the same way.

Out of the entire six season, with all the copious acts of gratuitous violence, countless murders, mamings and the deaths of characters that you'd gotten to know, one of standout tragic deaths of the show was Chalky's daughter. Not because she was popular character, she wasn't fleshed out enough for that to happen, but it was the implications of her accidental killing. The two obvious ones was Richard's end and the almost complete destruction of Chalky's life. Beyond that it had a significant ripple effect for the other powerful characters. That doesn't even get to Shakespearean tragedy of it all. A young girl, just starting on her way to life cut down by a bullet that might as well have been fired by her father. The father, meaning to take out his nemesis who was trying to take what was his, but ended up killing his daughter and hastening his own loss. And it was a sad irony that Richard had been the one that fired the bullet. We know that the killing of Angela Darmody was something that affected him greatly. Beyond the fact that they were friends and he liked her, she was an innocent. Both were Innocents that were connected to one of his very few friends; Jimmy with Angela and this girl and Chalky(i can't remember his daughters name). Everything about it was lamentable.

Hey man, I just finished the show and knowing there’s a KZfaq making videos on the show makes me really happy! It’s like it’s helping fill the void the show has left for me. Chalky was a real one Fr!

I Hate the fact that chalky was totally loyal to Nucky Thompson but it was only a one way street because Nucky the snake crossed him.

first off this is a fantastic video, edited great as well i love this show so much so seeing someone finally make a breakdown of these fantastic characters is amazing!

Chalky was a fair and reasonable portrayal, there was only so far a guy like him could go without a white dudes help back then. He was a G

Dude I'm so glad you your making videos covering the series. I loved this series

Chalky was a great character and one of my favorites. His ending was just not good, not only because I wanted better to happen, but it was written so poorly that I didn’t believe it. Chalky would never give up what he did for a deal he knew was fake.

Third time rewatching BWE thank you for the upload!

I loved Chalky White, season 4 he goes to the highest high only to lose everything; his money, his political status, his family (especially Maybell😢). I wanted to see him come back in season 5 and whip Dr. Narcisse.

*@Loud* Thank you for your videos, they’re phenomenal! *Boardwalk* *Empire* content is always welcomed. This show is fantastic, the era was perfectly executed, the characters were all well written. Overall, this show was simply *AMAZING!* In all honesty, I truly wish it was a tad bit longer… that’s how much I loved it. The Sopranos, The Wire, The Boys, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul and of course Boardwalk Empire, all have a special place in my heart.

He told Nucky that he was running with a crew robbing banks and whatnot. Said they "left him ass in the wind.", and he had to do some time. This was said during that meeting when Nuck told him not to pursue Narcisse.

You've earned a new subscriber. This and the van Alden show are excellent.

Solid video! Nice job.

New subscriber and i just wanted to say how much i appreciated someone finally covering this show

No1 gonna mention his badass name? Dude is pitch black but his two names are "Chalky" and "White" 😂😂😂

When Jimmy died- FINALLY When chalky died- NOOOOOOOO. F_CK THIS SHOW.

CHALKY WAS ONE OF THIS BROTHERS BEST ROLES. THIS BROTHER IS SADLY MISSED.

2:30 is just a perfect "I suddenly regret my life choices" moment.

RIP- Michael K. Williams

I like the scene when the kkk get delivered to chalky, and he’s like “welcome back boys” while the kkk are gagged and making fearful sounds

Why on Earth did Chalky bed down with a woman introduced to him by his nemesis? Contrived storyline. Chalky had women all over town. Beautiful women.

You have a cool narration voice bro. Subbed

Chalky White is one of my favorite characters in all of fiction.

Chalky was far and away my favorite character on the show. His monologue with his daddy's tools and the KKK guy was actor Michael K. Williams' shining moment in the series. When I heard that he had died my heart ached....what a singular talent.

I worked security on the set of Boardwalk Empire for the 3 seasons...& I became friends with some of the actors like Michael Shannon.. Michael Pitt..& Steve Buscemi Btw even tho Boardwalk Empire is set in Atlantic City & New Jersey in general..not ONE scene was shot in Jersey.. the majority of the scenes were shot in NYC..& the actual Boardwalk set with the hotels & store fronts was actually located in a former school bus depot a few blocks away from me in my neighborhood of Greenpoint Brooklyn.. which made it easy for me when i worked on set .. Btw the scene at Chalky's warehouse where the KKK hung one of Chalky's men..was actually filmed in an empty storefront in the Sunset Park neighborhood of Brooklyn..& because we were filming a scene in the hood in Brooklyn where you have a body( mannequin) literally lynched hanging for 12 hours ..we thought that there MIGHT be a problem..so i had a couple extra guys that day just in case but there were no problems Ill leave you with one detail you might find interesting.. Martin Scorsese was the Executive Producer of Boardwalk Empire & he actually directed the pilot I remember watching Scorcese walking around the set at night with a P.A..( Production Assistant.. basically kids who run errands for the director)... with a flashlight Scorcese would point at the ground every few minutes & the P.A. would bend down & pick something up..i asked the P.A. later on WTF was going on..& he told me that Scorcese was a fanatic about every detail being perfect on his sets.. So him & the P.A. were checking to make sure that no cigarette butts with FILTERS were on the ground because FILTERED cigarettes didn't EXIST in the 1920s Anyways keep up the great work brother im loving the videos 👑

Chalky White was one of my favorite characters on Boardwalk Empire..i worked security on the set of Boardwalk & in talked to Michael Williams a few times.. i let him know i was a fan of Omar..👑 Anyways i didn't like the fact that Chalky basically became a simp towards the end.. the Chalky from the first couple seasons would NOT have given it ALL up for a side piece.. especially getting played like that by Narcisse in the end

Chalky lost a lot in his battle with Narcisse but Narcisse lost a lot himself in this war. He lost Daughter who he raised and was a star. He had to become an informant giving the FBI info on Marcus Garvey witch got him deported. And he lost respect for himself in season 4 he wanted to be addressed as doctor but in season 5 when Lucky asked he liked to be addressed he said "whatever you prefer" he didn't fight for his doctor title. Chalky had to rely on Nucky during these times a black man especially one with no education had no choice. Narcisse was educated and sneakier but one of his downfalls was he underestimated Chalky. Chalky didn't have a college education or a high school education but he had street smarts he was a better business man than Jimmy and Eli and sharp intuition to know a good deal when he saw one. When he went to Havre De Grace he took his mentor's advice and tried to start something of his own with Oscar's men but like Oscar told him they wasn't reliable and they left him during a robbery which is how he got locked up.

The baddest boss on boardwalk empire 🙌

... closest thing to a decent human being amongst the gangsters on the show.

I shot a cover of that tool set monologue on my TikTok awhile back. Heavy scene, extremely meaty to act.

GGs...good video

Chalky messed up when he fell for the daughter.

you should do a story on eli thompson or the the whole darmody family inclding the commdore

Chalky over Big Al by KO in the first round.

My favorite (until) u broke down Narcise; just keep it up !!!

Chalky & Daughter=James St Patrick & Angela from Power

For those that don't know, the reason Chalky drew down on Lanskey about his Packard is because on of Chalky's men was l***hed and tied off to Chalky's Packard.

It would be a brutal fight. If al was coked up hed be extra brutal. I think chalky high difficulty

draw between Chalky and Al

Chalky was my fauvorite!!! Boardwalk empire was best mafia film, so much great characters. Characters what make other characters great too.

Oh shit, Omar comin' yo

They could have done a different way of killing him off he didn't kill an innocent person

Al can scrap but Chalky is Chalky.

Im biased id say Al Capone, Al survived the battle of Arden Forest in WW1.

Chalky White vs. Omar Little? Who you got? Who’s the better character? Which one is more gangsta?

go Jets!

In real life chalky was a boxer

Chalky Was A Boxer , AL would have gotten Embarrassed 😮

Sorry I'm back I loved Chalke 👍👍❤️

Maybelle death was a real wtf moment i felt wasn't needed at least by Richard

2pac discovered Michael k Williams

Was Chalkie White Omar Littles Grandfather? Could be . 😂

I did not care for the Doctor he was just weird and shit. Like a weird ol timey Batman villain

I really wanted Chalky to murder Dr. Narcisse I didn’t like his character Dr Narcisse was so condescending!

Chalky would of beat the yiou know what out of al-capone you see chalky was a middle weigh champ. So there you have it.

I think that the reason the writers never had Chalky make a move on Narcisse was that Narcisse kept his dirty dealings in the dark and used his U.N.I.A. position as this well educated and worldly leader in the black community to put up this front and maintain this totally fake "air of respectability". Chalky was more of a local representation of the black working class who really made no bones about his affiliation with the rackets. It's like they operated in two different worlds. Chalky taking out Narcisse would be like a Crip leader taking out Al Sharpton. Sure they are both crooks but the street guy would get no sympathy except from the hardcore criminal element.

The normy voiced narration, kills the whole vibe + does a disservice to an ALL TIME GREAT + complex character! Most kno MKW for Omar in The Wire-epic role. But I'll always remember him best for Chalky White! Almost as if 2 diff people played both characters

I liked purnsley dunn
