The Deuce 2017

I went into this series knowing very little. I knew it was a period piece, set in the 70's. It had James Franco, and it was set in NYC. Everything else I learned as I went. The initial "hit" of the show was seeing how much was centered on prostitution. Halfway through the season I made the connection that one of the creators also worked on The Wire and Treme. Once this connection was made, I really started to see similarities in written dialog among groups. Overall, I really enjoyed it. The show had a way of making the viewer connected to the characters. The characters lived their lifes, and it unfolded in a way that didn't seem scripted. It just progressed forward. There was no bad guy they were trying to chase, or stop. Rather, they were just living. It's because of this, that I look forward to the next season.

oh.

P.S

Maggie Gyllenhaal. You nailed this role. That wig ..
