Centered in New York, this follows the story of the legalization and subsequent rise of the porn industry through the early 70s and right into the 80s. It will explore the rough-and-tumble world that existed in midtown Manhattan until the rise of HIV, the violence of the cocaine epidemic and the renewed real estate market all ended this wild ride. Named for 42nd Street, The Deuce is partly inspired by twin brothers who were contenders in this turbulent Times Square world, becoming fronts for the Mob - the real power controlling this volatile and lucrative sex industry.
I finally watched all of it. :) Quality show, 8.1/10 @ IMDb. The final episode has, IMHO, one of the best show endings of all time! <3
What an idea! Vincent suddenly aging to present-time, walking through Times Square, and meeting many of the most important characters from all three seasons... not aged, no matter if they died or not. LOVED IT! :)
Edit: I just checked... The finale got the highest IMDb rating out of all The Deuce episodes. :)

This is a great show, if you're not watching this and enjoy a good story with great characters you should pick it up. It's already been renewed for a second season so we're safe from the tv execs for another year with it.
