This one's actually a legitimately good matchup, since both shows are great.

I could delve into the world of mini series and why I don't think it should be here but it's so much better that I'll just cast my vote.

This is a taste thing, funny since both come from genres I’m not so keen on. Overall I g tag bunk I prefer Boardwalk a little more.
