Curiosità:

The episode called "God Is A Comedian" was originally slated to be the 3rd episode to air, but NBC decided to make it an on line-only episode because the content was too violent and graphic for network television. It is currently viewable, only in the USA, on the official Black Donnellys website as well as through i Tunes.

Citazioni:

Joey Ice Cream: That was the Donnellys. They could never make it more than a block outta the neighborhood.

Very Good. The Black Donnellys is the tits.

I don't know what the problem is with this show.. that everyone seems to hate it, but I watched it, and I thought that it was very very good. The dialogue was good, the premise was dark, and of course, unbelievable. But seriously, what are the hit shows on today... Heroes? Lost? Desperate Housewives?, doesn't TV thrive on the unbelievable? I mean, why else would we watch something that could be going on nextdoor? Its just not that interesting. As for the comment that the good comments were just boosters from the show, the argument could be made that all the bad comments are from people that want to see the show fail. This is just as possible as boosters being on IMDb. Paul Haggis didn't get all of those Oscar noms for nothing. So heres to hoping that it stays on the air.
