I loved the Deuce. It tells the story of how Times Square was in the 1970’s, being run by the mob, the pimps and the pushers and into the 80’s when AIDS and then the developers took over. Gritty and real with great characters it’s got everything and it’s only 3 seasons long so you are left wanting more. Highly recommend
