The dog was killed in the first episode.

I love this show ... very funny, quirky, dark.

Very original.

I've never been to Norway, but I would expect it to be about as un-mafia a place as there could be.
They drop in this mafia, Italian-American guy and it almost writes itself.
And Van Zandt it just perfect for the role -- especially because of his big fake hair, exaggerated crime boss character.
