I just discovered it at the library while I was looking for stuff to watch.
It's an hour-long drama series that ran for three seasons on Showtime starting five years ago.
It's obviously inspired by the true story of the Bulger brothers, because it's set in Providence, RI, and is about a family man who's a politician and his brother the gangster who returns to town after being away for several years. Like I said, it plays like a cross between The Wire and The Sopranos, it's great!
Just terrific acting and writing. It should have been a huge hit, but I think a lot of people missed it. Showtime must have not gotten the word out enough, because the quality is right there with The Sopranos, which was a massive hit. Too bad, it should still be going. Anyway, I'm a tough critic and I can vouch for the quality -- really good shit, check it out!!!
I can't wait to pick up Season 2...
