First 2 episodes were dope af! Also, an Italian website confirmed S5 will be happening too, so I'm expecting more character introductions in S4...since they've done killed off pretty much everyone else. I hoping Genny makes it through to the end b/c IMO the show won't be the same without some ties back to the Savestanos/first 2 seasons....I guess they'll have Patrizia
Show is making a run for top 2 just behind Sopranos. It's been a while since I've done a Wire rewatch but right now I'm saying this is a better show than The Wire. The cinematography, music, and storylines are superb. The realism of the criminality portrayed is unmatched in any show or movie that I've seen, and the pacing might be the best of any series of all time...there's rarely if ever a lull in any episode.
Episode 2 where Genny is realizing that on his current enterprise trajectory, he is trapping his wife and young son into the same place that his father trapped his wife and Genny into...trapped by their last name being Savestano. So, Genny starts making those power moves...the contrast and irony of Genny requiring everything to be done 100% legal really shows how these (successful) Mafia groups truly operate...about 80% legal business funded by the 20% of illegal enterprise

I hated Genny's character prior to his Honduras transformation...now he's one of my favs besides my all-time favorite habitual line-stepper Ciro di Marzio...'the earthquake is God's will...it's good for the ground' is one of my favorite scenes of the the entire show....loaded with meaning and interpretation. I take it as basically when something bad happens to shake up those in control it's an opportunity for those at the bottom to come up...not to mention the earthquake in 1980's IRL is what helped propel The Camorra into legit gov't contracts to rebuild the city.
I was under the impression that he's more of less placing Patrizia as his figurehead in Secondigliano...he's tired of wars and doesn't want to keep his family in that shyt hole in the line of fire...he trust her enough to run it and he will collect his share and she gets the keep the rest with a lot of autonomy as long as they're buying from Genny there should be no problem. I can see Patrizia dealing w/ ppl not respecting her b/c she's a woman (the Levante Don even mentioned she should stay in her place as a woman) and requiring Genny to return to consolidate power and order...somehow Genny will end up getting sucked back into Scampia/Secondigliano...it's just his cursed destiny. I can also foresee some sort of affair happening with that ambitious hustler girl that was educated in London to work on their airport project. Her and Genny shared a couple extended stares and I can see her getting into the mix and fukking up Genny's family life
