Journey Back to 1930’s New York
Lane Sanders has landed a job as the personal assistant to New York City’s mayor Fiorello “Fio” La Guardia in 1936 New York City. She’s enjoying her job even though some days it feels like she is just trying to keep up with her energetic boss as he is on a crusade to clean up the city. One night, at the scene of a fire, Lane receives a warning for her boss. But soon she begins to wonder if there is more to the warning. And is she really a target?

This new series gets off to a promising start. There’s a good mystery here that kept me engaged most of the time and certainly had me turning pages during the suspenseful climax. I did feel the beginning wandered a bit too much, although it did all come into play by the end. Likewise, the ending could have been tighter as it set up the next in the series. The characters, both real and fictional, are a varied bunch and a delight to be around

Interesting
A very good cast star in this Hbo look at porn and prostitution in 70's New York. There are many aspects this covers from characters involved in organised crime, law enforcement, film, and the area of New York it's set in. In a way this is good and bad. There are too many characters and by the end of the series it's hard to see what the overall aim was. Other than a little snippet of the lives of the characters at that time. Overall though it was a decent series.
