The project started off as a backdoor pilot called the War of '04 for Spike TV. It was loosely inspired by the period of chaos in the South Boston underworld after James "Whitey" Bulger fled from the area in the early 1990s.

Plot

Mike "Madso" Madden leads a gang of criminals on the streets of Boston. When an Irish mob boss goes on the lam, Madso and his gang are thrust into a street war, as gangsters and corrupt cops fight it out for control of the mob bosses' fortune.
