ET B @E.T.B. Jan 3 This series does a phenomenal job intertwining the struggle for racial justice in America in the 1960's, the complexity of NYC's multi-faceted criminal underworld, and the clash of gangs, politicians, and law enforcement in the pursuit of selfish ends. This show stays faithful to the historical and political context without ever dulling the entertainment factor. Fantastic acting from the entire cast.
