Gangland Undercover

I thought this was a fantastic show especially season 2! Disappointed there isn't a 3rd season to see what happened to the outlaws! So much build up and then nothing! Come on history channel, personally I'm sick of gold rush etc! Bring back the action!

I ended up watching episode 1 only because it came on after Vikings. I enjoy watching TV shows/movies that are based on true life. (I do go into these knowing that some leeway has to be given to the facts so that it can make for good TV viewing.). So I was pretty interested in checking out "Falco's" undercover story to see real-life danger and a world that is completely different than my own.

As I watched this episode it kept cutting away to have the real Falco give some narration. It seemed quite disruptive and irritating especially when it happened during a tense action scene. I just wanted to be able to watch the characters interact - to get to the meat. I remember thinking that The History Channel really messed up what could have been an otherwise great TV show.

I ended up giving it a second chance and I am glad I did. The show continued to have Falco give a personal accounting, but they were able to make it flow more smoothly into the story. And actually, I appreciated having more insight into what he was thinking and feeling. The show really picked up.

I just watched episode 6......What?! That's it? Even though Falco spent 3 years of his life infiltrating this often vicious gang it gets condensed down to 6 shows? What a disappointment. I would think that given the huge success of Sons of Anarchy that there would be tons of people wanting to see into the real existence of a Biker Club/gang. It's confusing that they only put out 6 episodes. But 6 episodes is all we get. When I think of the overall cohesiveness, it seems like key information is lacking which could've been resolved with a longer first season. Regardless, I do really like the show.

It was pretty incredible to see the dire situations that Falco got into and see how well he thought on his feet and how he managed to get out of the hot-seat. It liked seeing a more realistic view on the biker lifestyle. Another positive is that it didn't portray a romanticized version of being an outlaw like SOA often did, but made sure to point out the criminal activities.

I would be happy to find out that The History Channel is going to have another season and show Falco's next undercover assignment. I believe he infiltrated biker clubs/gangs a total of 2 or 3 times.

For all the Sons of Anarchy lovers out there, so have worshiped SAMCRO and the 'quiet' town of Charming, look no further as this is a perfect 6 Hour Binge for you.

Charlie Falco's infiltration will captivate all, as the story, acting, narration is BRILLIANT!!!!

If you wanna know what life truly is in a MC, 6 Hours is all you gotta give!!!

Are you game????

Wish there were more such Mini-Series out there!!!!

Oh the thrill!!!!

It's the first time I write a review, and believe you me I did not see any series more Perfect than this show at all. Sure there is ups and downs for every TV-show, but this one is just so "PERFECT". The acting is "PERFECT", the production is "PERFECT", through the whole show you feel like you're living the story, the music is on point, and this show as a whole is a "MASTERPIECE". I'm really hoping for a 3rd season.

If you're so worried about the ending, Charlie Sheen, and Linda Fiorentina starred in the movie "Above the Law," based on this guy. He's actually got a small cameo on the end of the movie. But, of course, we won't know which of them, he is. It's a decent movie.
