The Westies
MGM+ SERIES PREMIERE 9/8c
Matt Rousch TV Insider
SUNDAY: A period mob drama explores the tension between the unruly Irish “Westies” of Hell’s Kitchen, led by the steely Eamon Sweeney (Oscar winner J.K. Simmons), and New York’s established Mafia clans, particularly the Gambino family and its then-deputy John Gotti (Hamish Allan-Headley), as they clash in the 1980s while dividing spoils during the construction of the Javits Convention Center. Sweeney tries to convince his crew to “keep our eyes on the big picture” with this gold mine of corruption on their turf, but conflict is inevitable. Grantchester‘s Tom Brittney co-stars as Sweeney’s trusted associate Jimmy Roarke, who’s got his hands full keeping his unstable best friend Mickey (Stanley Morgan), a Vietnam War vet just out of Bellevue, under control. When things begin to spiral, Westies’ favorite corrupt police officer Glenn Keenan (Bosch‘s Titus Welliver) is caught in the middle, having been recruited into an FBI task force investigating the mob. The series launches with two episodes.
