    The Last Don

    Season 1 Episode 3 - Aired 8/13/2024

    The Last Don shows how a decidedly new, more aggressive commitment by law enforcement to "eradicate" the mafia forces the families to find creative ways to stay in business and out of jail. But it's not as easy as it's been in the past and some are willing to throw it all away, once and for all.
