Wish this was better
The setting and atmosphere of Boston are there but the characters are flat and the plot drags. Kevin Bacon gives a buffoonish performance which gets really intolerable by season 2. There is some glaring amateurism in the supporting actors too. The actress who plays the US Attorney bawling out Decourcy in a restaurant sounded like she was reading off upside down cue cards. The tough wives of the bad guys are all talk and no depth. Who cares about Frankie’s hairdresser wife when all she does is curse off at everyone? Ugh one even wants to become a singer. Spare us.
