The Black Donnellys
Has anyone else caught this intense show! Wow! You better not have to go to the bathroom during this show. You miss a minute and you miss half the story! I liked it! I hope it stays this fast paced and intersting. Anyone else see it???? What do you think?????

It is a drama. Sort of a Irish Sopranos!

I liked it too, and will watch it again next week. It was very confusing at first, but when they just did the actual show and not that guy telling the story in the jail, it made sense.

Who was that guy in the jail anyway??

Thanks! I was way off!

The guy in jail is a kid that hung out with the brothers. He is the kid who was in the middle of the street after losing the ice cream (That's why he got the name icecream something or other). He's the one who saw Tommy run over his brother Jimmy's legs. I think each week he will be doing the narrating for the whole show.

IMO,it's one of the best things to hit network tv in a long while.

I thought it was pretty good and fast paced. I missed a few things so I taped it again on Thursday to answer my own questions! I will continue to watch it!

 

[Debbie6221]

Yikes! Last episode was kindof violent, huh!

 

[MelanieC]

I have both of the first two episodes Tivo'd, I'm hoping to watch them this week. I haven't had had the want yet to start watching them. I'm hoping I get the itch soon. A friend at work really likes it.

 

[Debbie6221]

The more you save on Tivo the better anyway. It will be like you're watching a movie!

 

[minniecarousel]

Yeah - I had to turn it off half-way through this last episode. These guys are just not likeable! Kinda reminds me of "Smith" about the professional thieves. No redeeming qualities in any of these guys. I have a personal conflict, because I like the Sopranos as a show (although I don't "like" Tony Soprano). Maybe it's because the Donnelly brothers are young guys - I just don't get the violence.

 

[Debbie6221]

I think they want this to be like the Soprano's. I DO like it (not the sledge hammering) but we will see.....

 

[Amlee]

I'm still undecided if I like it or not. I've watched both eppys. But I agree, if you blink, you have missed something good.
