I got a free week of Epix to check out Godfather of Harlem.
But then started watching, Perpetual Grace, LTD.

Set in the Southwest, revolves around a plot where a son is trying to scheme money away from his parents who run a church.
Ben Kingsly is great.

If you like the Fargo series, this has a similar feel. Super quirky.
Great cast, good story.

8/10

Godfather of Harlem was also pretty good.
Forrest Whittaker, Vincent D'Onofrio, Giancarlo Espisito, Paul Sorvino, Chaza Palminteri, Louis Guzman

Tells the story of Harlem gangster, Bumpy Johnson and his dealings with the Italian mom.
Also brings in his relationship with Malcolm X and Clay Powell. A couple of the story lines are a little cheesy.
Especially one involving Cassius Clay.

But all in all a pretty good gangster series.

7/10

Even without the free week, it's well worth spending $6 for a month of Epix for these shows. There are a few more that look pretty good as well.
