Get Shorty S1-3
Get Shorty follows Miles Daly (Emmy winner Chris O’Dowd from Bridesmaids, State of the Union), muscle for a Nevada crime ring, who tries to leave his criminal past behind and become a movie producer in Hollywood with the help of a washed-up producer, Rick Moreweather (triple Emmy winner Ray Romano from Bad Education, The Irishman, The Big Sick). With his progress in Hollywood jeopardized by his former partner, Season 2 saw Miles struggle to reconcile his ambitions as a filmmaker and family man with his skill set as a career criminal. In season three, Miles embraces more ruthless methods as he settles scores and attempts to climb the Hollywood ladder.
Based on Elmore Leonard’s classic crime novel, and the subsequent Golden Globe-winning 1995 film, Get Shorty has a rating of 8.2 on IMDb and a 98% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
