So You're A WISEGUY, Huh?
I've been meaning to link to TC's Post for a couple of days now, and everything TC writes about WISEGUY is accurate. It was a fantastic series, one of the best continuing one-hour serial dramas ever.
With its guest stars of Ray Sharkey and Kevin Spacey in the roles of the first two antagonists and villains to take on the law, to Jerry Lewis in the role of a garment manufacturer, the late, great Paul Winfield, Tim Curry and Deborah Harry in a multi-episode "arc" about the music industry, WISEGUY covered the spectrum of what a great television drama is all about.
If you can find it on DVD, buy it and watch it. You won't regret it. WISEGUY was indeed the "24" of its time.
