"McMafia" on AMC?

[ssjones]

Did anyone else catch the first episode of McMafia on AMC last Monday? I thought it was very good. Apparently, the series already ran on the BBC (but perhaps tanked after ep 4?)
Here's the trailer:

It had the vibe of last years mini-series "The Tourist".

I watched the first episode and thought is was pretty good. I'll watch one more before I decide to "follow" it or not.

Thanks for the heads up.
Ep 1 re-airs tomorrow at 6 AM- at least it does on DIRECTV®. (Ch 254)

I just finished this first season. Wow, what a great show.

Quite a different character played by James Norton here vs. a priest in a Brit mystery series!
The teasers for a new show starring Benedict Cumberbatch are intriguing- his character appears totally off the wall.

A modern interpretation of "The Godfather" is a good description. The last 10 minutes were fabulous.

Appreciate the heads up, this looks pretty good. Will definitely give it a try ...

I thought that this thread was going to be about bootleg 5100 hitting the black markets. ::

It's a pretty good show ... a bit on the commercial side though !
