Mark Pickering was amazing as young Deputy Nucky. He got all of Steve Buscemi's mannerisms down perfectly. All the other young versions of the established characters were well cast as well. The guy who played the younger Commodore did an amazing impression of Dabney Coleman's voice, and the girl who played the teenage Gillian looked so much like Gretchen Mol. Even some of the peripheral characters young versions were amazing like Nucky's brother Eli and whoever it was that played the younger version of Dominic Chianese's (Uncle Junior from The Sopranos) character Leander Whitlock.
