TV show description:
Set in Providence, Rhode Island, this drama revolves around a pair of Irish-American brothers — one’s a politician and the other’s a traditional criminal.
Tommy Caffee (Jason Clarke) is the politician known as the “Prince of the Hill.” Tommy knows his constituents by name and helps them get civil servant jobs. He helps the poor and the elderly but he’s a pragmatist. He knows that loyalty translates into votes which translate into power which is what he hungers for. He works with Representative “Don-Don” Donatello (Matt Servitto), a lawyer who happens to represent several of the state’s biggest corporations.
Tommy values family and friends but there have been bumps along the road, including some with his wife, high-school sweetheart Eileen (Annabeth Gish), and their rebellious and eldest daughter, Mary Rose (Fiona Erickson).
