This just makes me wish Mob City never got cancelled.

Why must they make great films into TV shows? Fargo now LA Confidential on the plus side the TV show won't have Kevin Spacey.

Exactly. I was so pissed when Mob City got cancelled. People these days watch the dumbest shit and good, scripted shows get dumped on.

...I actually thought he was the best part of the movie, haha. No one else did it for me in that film, not even Guy Pearce, and I think he's wonderful in everything he does.

Though I loved the show too, "Mob City" had to die so that Milo could do "This Is Us." And then die there.

Obviously you don’t watch Fargo, because it’s freaking brilliant. Better than the movie.

Yep...the first two seasons of Fargo the tv series are some of the best episodes ever put out on tv.

Mob City is a series I often wish I could revisit. Is it even available anywhere?

crude · 02-12-2018, 03:13 PM

on CBS?

Please nooo...

Yeah... super disappointing. This had potential to be amazing on HBO or something.

CBS ruins shows. They should stick with procedurals. This show should be somewhere else without censorship...

Remember STD.

The only physical release is from Germany:

This is awesome. I didn't know they ever released it. I might have to import this even though I have it on Itunes

Still Fargo is in FX. Big difference here. Fargo on CBS would be a apocalyptic disaster.

Can you imagine it?

anomaly7 · 02-12-2018, 11:05 PM

Wow. I actually just watched the pilot for the old show that comes as an extra on the blu-ray of the film, and it was pretty bad. Honestly with CBS I don't see this new version being much better, unless they get a really great cast.

Hoke Moseley · 02-20-2018, 10:55 PM

Holy crap, Walton Goggins is starring in this as Jack Vincennes.

Looks like I'll be watching this after all.

Yeah, I was thinking "meh", then I saw that bit of news. My DVR is quivering with anticipation...

sandman slim · 02-22-2018, 09:56 PM

And then this happened:

Brian J. Smith to star as Ed Exley

I am now officially hyped for this, Smith is a fantastic actor, imo one of the best things about Sense8.

sandman slim · 03-08-2018, 10:42 PM

This just keeps getting better & better...

Hoke Moseley · 03-09-2018, 01:42 AM

Shea Whigham... awesome.
