They foreshadowed the way they'd end it in the diner scene, when Vincent talks to the chef, so it wasnt surprising. Just felt rushed, and corny. And poorly planned. They made it seem like he was dying as he walked through Times Square, seeing all the dead people from his past. The walking down the subway stairs, being taken to Hell by his twin, who was arguably a worse person than he was. Was he about to have a heart attack? A stroke? Who knows, the way they shot it.
People rarely change, so there really wasnt much to wrap up in terms of plotlines, and that was the point of the Bronx scene. For both the hookers and Ralph Maccio.
Anyway, Franco looked like Charles Bronson, so that was okay.
Mike was the bouncer at the High Hat. I'm guessing AIDs and he didn't want the shame of people knowing he had what was considered a gay disease at the time.
Yes on the other question. He was the gay neighbor.
Agreed too many subplots and most of them weren't interesting to me.
The very end, although most might think it was hoaky, I liked it, it was a fun way to end a series.
Well, Mike was down low. He was fucking that tranny in the 2nd season.
