Irish Fiddling! Part III

THE BLACK DONNELLYS. NBC, Mondays, 10pm.

This time the Irish mob is in New York, so it's kind of like Sleepers crossed with The Departed or something. And it turns out one of the actors was actually in Sleepers! I have no idea if this is supposed to be good or not, but NBC may be killing off Studio 60 (good riddance! sorry, Nate Corddry!) a week earlier for it. So at least they think it'll be good - though saying it's better than Studio 60 isn't saying much, I'm afraid.

I think this guy staring off into space is supposed to be the cute one:

... because, well, he's staring off into space. Like an artist might do. And guys? He is an artist. But poor cute boy probably gets drafted into organized crime by his grimy-lookin' good-for-nuffink brothers behind him. Hoodlums!

When to get jiggy: February 26th, 10pm!

this reminds me of '4 brothers' meets 'good will hunting' meets some generic CW show about 4 guys meets good writing. maybe.
