A gritty show that would be better appreciated today with the popularity of The Sopranos (a few actors, including Joe Pantoliano, were on both), it was filmed in a muted palette and set in an un-named city (like Detroit?) near the Canadian border that has seen brighter days. It had wonderful music from Loreena McKennitt and Caroline Lavelle and a well-rounded cast of TV regulars (Ken Olin and Jason Gedrick) and excellent character actors such as Mike Starr and Cold Cases's John Finn.
Only the two hour pilot and eight other episodes ever aired.moreless
Show Summary
EDIT
EZ Streets is an epic drama about a dark, gritty urban world, the people who live there and their struggle to live by the creed of the streets. The one-hour series explores the lives of Detective Cameron Quinn, gangster Jimmy Murtha, and ex-con Daniel Rooney, fiercely independent men living parallel lives on opposite sides of the law. Quinn is a cop who has to deal with corruption in order to find the truth. Murtha and Rooney are two individuals living in a very violent world with its own moral code. Rooney just got out of jail for a crime that he did not commit, but he's slowly being drawn back in by Murtha, the head of one of the city's most notorious new gangs, the EZ's. Keeping Murtha one step ahead of hard time is his attorney, Theresa Connors.moreless
