24 years old here, and I've been a CRIME STORY addict the moment I caught the department store shootout in the pilot episode on A&E about 7 years ago. At that second, I was like, "Dude, that is truly bad-ass!!"
when it was shown on tv (late at night), i always led the clock ring to watch it; i had to go up in the morning at half past 5, so i couldnĀ“t stay awake until it was over (lol).
Me 48, Hubby 50 Enjoyed it the first time, now getting the disks through netflicks. Trying to get our 15 yr old son into it but he having a little trouble getting into a character driven action series...
I'm a huge fan of the "cops and robbers" theme and I just can't get enough of gangster-related shows/movies. My mum told me about this show not too long ago and when the DVD's came out, we bought them.
Well I was just completely blown away! When I saw the DVD's, I knew it was going to be a show I would love but it is even better than I thought it was going to be! I'm still currently watching season 1 and it's just excellent. Every episode is riveting.
I've always been a fan of Dennis Farina and have always loved Tony Denison in The Closer (especially his banter with Provenza) but this show really opened up my eyes as to what a fine actor he truly is. First of all, his appearance. The moment I saw him, I recognized him. He has a very distinguishable face and it was still easy to spot with dark hair. Seeing Tony in this has also made me realized what a remarkebly handsome man he is. And his looks haven't faded! He still looks very young for his age.
I would really love to see a continuation of the story. I haven't finished the show off but knowing it only went for two seasons is sad. Seeing these two mean on screen together again will be a dream come true. I hope it happens though.
I'm 51. I loved it when it was in its first run, and now I just got the DVDs all these years later. Am falling in love with the show all over again......Jake
35. I remember the filming happening around places I was familiar with, so it was pretty exciting to see the finished product on TV. I've been a fan ever since, and had have had some strange 'six degrees' moments surrounding the show too.
25 I mainly started watching it cause I'm a fan of Tony Denison and I love watching him on The Closer. I saw clips of the show on youtube and knew I had to see it. I just got through watching the 1st season and waiting for season 2 to arrive. Even though I've seen The Closer first, after watching Crime Story it's hard for me to imagine Tony as a cop. He's a great actor and I'm very surprised he's not bigger.
40. I was a fan back when it was still on TV - I was a teen at the time and I went head over heels for Luca, but I still love the show on its own merit. The first season, at least. Without a doubt one of the best collection of characters on a major network series. Frank Holman was a kick!
