The last mafia television show Paul Haggis had a hand in was the thoroughly awesome and insanely short lived EZ Streets. Based on that alone, I'll watch the pilot tonight.
Granted, this one seems to be reaching for the teenage girl audience based on the ads.

It started off really strong but it sure is slow now. The last really good mob show was a show that was on ABC a few years ago called "Line of Fire" That was an excellent show and very graphic.

Though I miised the first 20 minutes, I enjoyed the pilot enough to give it a try for at least another week.
Seems like pretty good timing airing the pilot the day after The Departed wins for Best Picture!

I was just reading the collection of press reviews over at AICN and some of them are pretty funny.
My favorite from the Boston Herald

What if Archie Comics and the folks behind Lucky Charms cereal decided to make a mob drama? It would look a lot like “The Black Donnellys,”
