This was a random series I found and I'm glad I did lots of violence but the blood diamond theme was something different.

Very good cast was good to to see Jeremy Sista (six feet under) in a gritty role again. Donald Sutherland is great and Ray Whitestone was too.

Shame it only went for 2 seasons.

Really glad they renewed this show for the second season as I loved the first one. There are too many boring crime dramas/thrillers out there and not enough shows like this.

The story line is not completely new but I have definitely learnt a few things about the diamond business I didn't know and its good entertainment that keeps you hooked and waiting for the next episode. The characters are strong enough to carry it, the female gangster is a bit much I have to say but its all part of the showmanship. The younger son is a cutie and his older brother is a junkie, nothing new but the story works in different ways than you would imagine as after all we are talking about diamonds! Fascinating how the diamond industry works and how the police track diamond smugglers.

I've watched season 1 and just about to watch season 2 so hope that it is as as the first.

Started off with great potential. The story wasn't unique. Screw up brother who is the parent's real favorite. Smart, successful brother who has to spend his life cleaning up after him. Cleaning up a new mess that pits them against a very dangerous Queenpin is what launches the story.

Story is moving along fine. One point for the brothers. One point for Lady Rah. Then Lady Rah's sociopath boss shows up, humanizing her - a good thing. But it also turns everyone stupid. Each subsequent action is worse than the last. All the cleverness and street smarts, staying a step ahead go out the window.

Season 2 is worse out of the gate.

Part of me thinks this was done so as not to be cliched. Well, it just made them annoying.

What a different tour of story involving diamonds. The first episode was outstanding with the hyhenas had me throwing my legs up on the couch lol.

This show mixes business, crime and family. I think the characters are interesting and evolve as the story moves along. I really wish that there were more seasons.
