Bad Blood

Ok so loads of Goodfellas parallel, based on actual characters, first person narration etc. This is solid TV. Some reviews say it's mediocre or typical, but every episode ends with you feeling it ended too soon. Kim Coates is one of my favorite working actors, he's awesome. There's something about the way this is shot though, it's kind of dark and a little overly noir in its look. It loses a little something. Still for all its faults it's compelling t.v. that ends far too fast.

A couple of evil twins are sent from Italy by the 'Ndrangheta to take matters in hand and soon start trying to muscle in on Declan's operation. But the mad Irishman isn't giving in without a fight.

Season 2 is action-packed, with a lot of edge-of-your seat scenarios. However, as well as being taut and with no unnecessary scenes or filler, it also manages to produce finely-drawn characters who you can actually care about. Let's hope they can keep the high standards for Season 3.

Kim Koates is an amazing actor. I like him since his role on Sons of Anarchy. This is a great series and probably underrated. This is a mixture of Sons of Anarchy with a touch of Narcos. On the other hand, some plot holes or a bad script make some characters decisions unbelievable. Overall, If you loved The Sopranos and Peaky Blinders, give it a try, it is not as good, but pretty watchable.

Not a masterpiece, but a solid crime series depicting mafia family in Toronto, raise and fall.

Season 2 however, really turns into a B production, with main character running the entire city on his own, going solo against the world. No bodyguards, associates, soldiers, etc. Script looks scraped together without any afterthought.

Funny enough, season 2 episodes have significantly higher score on IMDM.

OMG.. such a great ensemble of actors but the actor who shall remain nameless is one of the worst actors on television.. on episode 2 and I really hope they kill him off soon or I'll have to stop watching. Too bad they got every other cast member bang on!
