1. These episodes seems disjointed. The movement from scene to scene and character to character happens so fast and frequently, that you do not know who is who. I kept having to rewind several times to figure out what was going on.
Also, in many of the 'action' scenes you do not know who is the bad gauy vs good guy. This renders the entire sequence of events anti-climatic because we cannot tell if we are supposed to be happy or sad when someone gets shot.
Trying to put together a mafia story with comedy is a hard sell, and this show does not find the correct balance. The comedy is never funny and borders on slapstick which in turns makes it hard to take the drama seriously.
