Luck (US - DVD R1 | BD)
HBO reveals package artwork for the 1st season arriving on November 27th


Synopsis
Quote: From David Milch (Deadwood, NYPD Blue) and Michael Mann (Public Enemies, Ali), this one-hour drama centers on an intuitive tough guy named Chester “Ace” Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman), who has always been involved with gambling, from bookmaking and money laundering to casino operations. Recently released from prison after three years, he teams with Gus Demitriou (Dennis Farina), his longtime chauffeur and muscle, to craft a complex plan involving the Santa Anita Racetrack in California. As they plot out Ace’s strategy, the pair recruits Turo Escalante (John Ortiz), a successful trainer with a sordid reputation. In the meantime, an old trainer (Nick Nolte) nurtures a possible breakthrough thoroughbred, while a ragtag group of four racetrack groupies band together to try to catch lightning in a bottle – as winners of an elusive Pick Six bet.

It was an OK show but all the technical horse racing jargon was a turnoff and I could see why it did not connect with a lot of people though I did not miss a show.
I want to see this show even though I wish they (the producers) hadn't shut the show down
Wonder if they'll release the finished first episode of season 2 sometime...
Huh?!? I thought HBO was forced into shutting down production on this series, after a bunch of horses died on the set, and animal rights activists made a big fuss over it?? Guess they still gotta make a buck off this, some kinda way, lol...
