Why you should watch: A fact-based show that serves as a companion piece to the highly successful Narcos series. Self-created drug lord widow — she killed her abusive husband — Griselda Blanco (Sofia Vergara) is said to be the only “man” that frightened legendary drug dealing hippo lover Pablo Escobar. Sitcom star Vergara is scary as the brutal and relentless leader of a growing drug-dealing empire after she relocates from Medellin, Colombia, to Miami with her three sons. She won’t be winning any Mother of the Year prizes as she carelessly and dangerously mixes her bloody business with her family life. The ’70s art direction is fun in a show that’s all deadly business with a Scarface level of blood and violence.
