Crime Story — Season 2

Audience Reviews

Vic V @RT28019284 03/31/2025 The series lost peoples interest because the main character was actually Ray Luca. The Mike Torello character was just an obsessed cop bent on catching Luka. The criminal element was living great. Living in casinos, drinking expensive drinks, huge amounts of money, etc. while Torello couldn’t even hang on to his marriage, drinking lousy coffee and “partying “ in cheap hotels, swilling cheap beer and hanging out with his fellow $13,000 a year cop buddies. The second season was attempted without Ray Luca and his crew. BIG MISTAKE. The show was cancelled shortly thereafter. People would rather see a charismatic mobster than a jerk, prick, wannabe thug cop. See more Read all reviews
