Magic City: Season 2
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
This is a great series. The drama takes place in Miami just as Castro was coming to power.Very absorbing plot lines, concerning crime, politics, and family relationships, as well as interesting, well acted characters. I particularly enjoyed some of the ancillary characters including Elena Satine, as a hooker and Jessica Marais as the tormented wife of arch gangster Ben Diamond. Michael Rispoli and James Cenatiempo were also notable as henchmen for the main characters, Ben Diamond and Ike Evans.
This is a series that I did not want to end-unfortunately it has ended after only two seasons. If Starz had promoted it better it would have been a run away hit. I hope they reconsider-it really is that good.-Laser Point
I don’t like this show as much as my favorites, Mad Men and the Walking Dead, but I think it deserved more than 2 seasons. It’s one of those shows that has a very loyal but small fan base. The end of the season brings enough closure to make me feel satisfied but left just enough open so there was room to move on if Starz decided to let them put out another season. The case for the DVDs if well crafted and if you already own the 1st season you should know what to expect. I did feel like the Special Features were lacking. Knowing that it was probably going to be the last season when they released the DVDs it would’ve been nice to have some of the actors and crew reflections on the show. There was a little bit of that but not in a ‘well, it was great while it lasted and this is what it meant to me’ kind of way.-Midway 47
This season had some unexpected twists and turns, so I hate that the show got cancelled. We’ll now have to use our imaginations to explore how the storyline might have played out. SPOILER ALERT: I was intrigued by Danny and Judi Silver’s budding relationship, and I wanted to see how Ike was going to handle his frisky sister-in-law (or former sister-in-law depending on how you look at it). What I didn’t want to see was Ike’s wife, Vera, fall into bed with Stevie. I just think the whole sleeping with your step-son thing is low and gross. Other than that, I thought the story was getting more interesting overall, and I was becoming more invested in the characters. It’s a shame that it got the ax, but that’s life.-Shopping Diva
