About this show

Brotherhood, set against the desperate worlds of politicians and mob bosses, looks at how gray good and evil can be. Two brothers on opposite sides of the law, determined to protect the neighborhood and what is theirs by whatever means necessary. Placed in a fictional Irish neighborhood in Providence, Rhode Island known as "The Hill," the series explores what lengths people go to achieve the elusive American dream. Brotherhood is the story of rivalry and revenge, of loyalty and allegiance and ultimately of family and commitment.

The first season is interesting, but it goes downhill after that, and turns into a flat, boring soap opera. Every person who seems to have some kind of decency or morals eventually slides into apathy and sleaziness. It's so upside-down, the brother who is the criminal ends up having more decency than the rest, but by the third season, you don't care anymore.

This show was on air around the same time as the Sopranos I believe that this show would have put the Sopranos To shame I was very sad to see it go away

But definitely NOT worth $80-90 to own all three seasons (in HD)! Just get the blurays from Netflix! 05/14/13.
