One of the best shows i've ever seen
Very well made series. Each episode is focused on a different gang, inclusing interviews from current members, former members, aswell as the law enforcement agencys attached to investigating that gang. Definately some parts that may be hard to watch for some people, it is an understatement to say that this contains violence. My only 2 issues with this show is that it was made for people that watch 1 episode at a time, if you plan to sit down and watch a few in a row, you will find it gets repetative. Aswell, the first season is the best one by far, contains all the major gangs, the show kind of goes downhill from there, but thats not to say it gets worse, just not as good as the first season. I grew up in a very gang dominated city and throught i knew a fair ammount about gangs, apparently i was wrong. This series is a definate eye-opener.
great
i have been watching all the seasons of gangland. just purchased this season. and it was good. looking forward to the next season
A brave and fearless series, at times gruesome on the streets.

fearless manner that is unmatched elsewhere, beyond the gruesome of
what is seen even, in the final moments of Taxi Driver, for example.
This series, in no shape, way or form glorifies conflict. Rather, it

lifestyle wasn't for them after experiencing it first-hand for a
length of time and concerned about it potential as a livelihood in
the medium to long term.
In the case of LA GRAN FAMILIA (LGF), based in Atlanta, GA, the
founding of the group was noble at first, opposing various
injustices and humiliation from school bullies. At some point, this
goal changed to the pursuit of status, gold chains, glamorous rims,
Mercedes Benz cars, hotties, money and the exhilaration of
instilling fear in others generally,...
