Storyline
Vinnie Terranova does time in a New Jersey penitentiary to set up his undercover role as an agent for the OCB (Organized Crime Bureau) of the United States. His roots in a traditional Italian city neighborhood form the underlying dramatic base throughout the series, bringing him into conflict with his conservative mother and other family members while acting undercover as syndicate enforcer. The segments, which ran several shows each, included in-depth and empathetic characterizations of the players on both sides of the law. Scenarios include the underbelly of the recording industry, protection rackets, international arms dealing, foiling white supremacist plotters, uncovering a government conspiracy to set up a compliant new head of state in a third-world country, and Vinnie's final reconciliation with his Italian mother and her new husband, the purely legendary Mafia figure Don Aiupo.

Trivia
At the beginning of season 4, it was inferred that Vinnie Terranova had been killed (in reality Ken Wahl had a dispute with the producers and was written off of the show). However, Vinnie (and Wahl) returned for the Wiseguy TV movie with the season 4 events having been erased from the series continuity as though it never happened. See more »
