The Longest Day

I first watched the leaked pilot back in October 2015 and now after more than a year i got to watch the whole season all at once , and let me tell you it was damn worth it.

So first CBS got to try with this project but they pulled out before Amazon step in and take in the project and what a lost it look right now for CBS,, the story-line is so connected and just until the finale they keep on giving us a little portion of what to come where Pete keeps on getting out of troubles just to find himself into another and the plot keeps on thickening and growing till the second half of the finale where they show you the BIG CON ... so bravo to the writers as they did and amazing job over the last year and well.. that shows on the ratings.

As for the cast , my goodness they were all engaging and on point, from Giovanni Ribisi to Marin Ireland to the great Margo Martindale and of course the huge addition and i believe what built publicity to the show, Bryan Cranston and here he just pulled another "classier" level of Heisenberg :D

Finally, you gotta do it now ,, binge watch the 10 episodes because i do believe there's gonna be a second season. When !! i just read it might take a while so maybe till 2018 !! but based on what i understood Amazon is 100% invested and prepared for a renewal and the final scene in here showed us there is a new plot ... but will it have the same or even the likes of the amazing entertaining cast of this one !! who knows... so free up your schedule next Saturday and i hope you will enjoy this season at the same amount i did.

We knew somwhere that the real Pete's past will come to haunt Marius, and it did. Season 2 will have a great start with that.

Enough about that, Marius is again broke as the money went to the owner and a bundle went to the late Charlie. These thieves had honor among them but seems a little over, considering they didn't get that much of a payout, but still, maybe they all had a relationship before season 1.

Carly's character still gives me digust and creep and Otto and Audrey gives me so much joy. Agreed this show is not that good as "Breaking Bad" or lots but that's the point, no show could ever get to Breaking Bad's level so stop bickering about it. "Character actress" Margo Martindale for the win!

Haha. The poker game comes to fruition as Vince calls out the team, on the con.

Is it them?? +5 Stars

Vince almost kills Karolin. Vince catches them in the con. What great scenes.

Okay but then...it starts to go downhill a bit. The confession that Otto made to Audrey about the hit man. Silliness -1 Star.

And at the end, Pete he pays everyone off with Vince's money. He KICKS OUT his brother and Karolina and they are off to Vegas. He says bye to Otto and Audrey and family business. And then he gets captured by 2 guys who are working some completely different angle. Pete who doesn't see everything coming? Doesn't see that car following him? Okay the very end was cheesey but it does set the stage for a S2. -1 Star

All things considered a pretty good finale for S1. 8/10.

Sneaky Pete: Season 2 continues where Pete Murphy's character's past has caught up to him. The bad guys who question Marius don't realize Pete is Marius. Giovani must try to find Pete's real mom Maggie (Jane Adams) and the $11 million she stole from a Croatian gangster named Luka (John Ales) who likes to drown his victims in acid. During the family dinner Maggie does not reveal Pete's true identity but to use him to try to steal the money. In the meantime, Audrey had trouble of her own when an NYPD detective Joyce Rudy (Jennifer Ferrin) is brought in to uncover who and how crooked cop Winslow (Michael O'Keefe) was killed in the first season. You got to watch to see the con to steal the money out of a stuffed Buffalo from a casino floor and what happens by the end of the season. This season ended on a cliffhanger with Julia (Marin Ireland) is set to meet with Marius's parole officer to find out the true identity of Pete. This season there were too many side stories and so much going on that you can get lost in the series. Let's see what happens to Pete and to the Murphy family and hopefully a return of Cranston's character to the series.

It is the Perfect ending to highly good show, It's a show that you watch in you free time in a mood of watching some tricks and con. Not the best drama but the best excitement. In This episode they have given us what they had promised through the whole season and they nailed it.

Bryan Cranston did his best scene in my opinion after "Breaking Bad" in this episode, he will make you feel fear, compassion, anger & love in one moment, you will end up not knowing if you hate him or not, Mr. Cranston was simply born to act, and he was just simply being himself.

The episode ended up by opinion a new interesting story for the next season and made us exciting about it.

My rating for this episode is 9/10.
