Some of television’s best and longest-running series in recent years have featured families full of crooks, mobsters, drug dealers and con artists. And just this week, a new wave of projects featuring clans of outlaws crested with ABC’ s Scoundrels , which features Virginia Madsen as a matriarch trying desperately to straighten out her crooked family. Meanwhile, in Scoundrels ‘ wake, Starz CEO Chris Albrecht (who headed HBO during the rise of The Sopranos ) acquired the rights to the Australian crime drama Underbelly , which currently features blood-related gang members, and Jamie Foxx shot a trailer for a mob family drama called Tommy’s Little Girl . In honor of this perennial programming trend, Movieline has compiled some of television’s best crime families over the years and ranked them — from funny to fearless.
