Fat Tony & Co

I cant believe no one has written a review on here about this fantastic show. Most of Australia's viewing audience are tuning in to this one and no one visits IMDb ??!! OK so we get spoonfed some of the plot , e.g Tony doing a runner, but this reminds me of the Fugitive....the hunted (Mokbel) always trying to stay one step ahead of the law. His positioning in the drugs war meant that he was able to dodge most bullets, but 1 by 1 the people he knows are being killed so its only a matter of time before the noose tightens around his neck. Based on true events makes this even more compelling viewing although I would recommend newcomers to this series to first watch Underbelly season 1 which to me is the best TV series of all time.

Great aussie drama. Loved it. Aussie shows are always more relatable and this did not disappoint.

This is a way of reviving the Melbourne gangland stories but honestly I feel like these stories have run their course and now the scripts are self-undulgent. Not as strong as the first Underbelly season.

OK first of all, if you are thinking about watching this show, please check out the previous Underbelly shows first. No matter how much you want to watch Fat Tony & Co, seriously, watch all the previous ones first & save this till last, otherwise you will spoil whats gone before. The Underbelly Series & Fat Tony tell the tales of the Aussie drug trade, the gangsters who make up that world & the police forces trying to catch them. All based on true events, it is a cracking series which shows the war on drugs from both sides & how many people fall victim to it. I would also recommend another Aussie show called "Killing Time" & the 3 spin off Underbelly TV movies.

I love the underbelly series but this just has so many inconsistencies if you have watched the original series, so either this or the first season are 90% lies, good watch but like I say mostly non fiction
