The Capones is a reality show that aired on ReelzChannel in 2014. The show follows the lives of the descendants of the infamous Capone family, who were known for their involvement in organized crime during the prohibition era. The Capone family is headed by Bartolomeo Tumbarello, who is the great-nephew of the notorious gangster Al Capone. Along with Tumbarello, the show features his cousin Dominic Capone III and his childhood friend Jeff Vercillo.

The Capones is shot in Chicago, the notorious home of the Capone family, and it provides a glimpse into the lives of the modern-day Capones. The show follows the three men as they try to keep their family legacy alive while also navigating the everyday challenges of life. Although the Capones have a reputation for being involved in organized crime, the show is less about that and more about their relationship with each other and the struggles they face as they try to balance their family history with their current lives.

The show is structured around different family events, such as weddings and birthdays, and the preparation leading up to these events. The Capones are a close-knit family and the dynamics between the three men, as well as their relationships with other family members, is a focal point of the show. In some ways, The Capones is a family drama that just happens to be set against the backdrop of one of the most notorious criminal families in American history.

One of the standout characters of the show is Bartolomeo Tumbarello, or "Bart" as he is often referred to. Bart is the patriarch of the Capone family and a self-proclaimed businessman. He is proud of his family's history and is determined to keep their legacy alive. Bart is a larger-than-life character with a big personality and a quick wit, and he is always ready with a one-liner or a colorful story. Despite his tough exterior, Bart is also a family man who cares deeply about his children and grandchildren.

Dominic Capone III, or "Domo" as he is known, is Bart's cousin and sidekick. Domo is a former stuntman and actor who has appeared in several films, including The Dark Knight. Domo is younger than Bart and often serves as the voice of reason, trying to keep Bart in check when his larger-than-life personality gets the better of him. Domo is also a family man and is devoted to his wife and children.

Jeff Vercillo is a childhood friend of Bart's and has been part of the Capone family for years. Jeff is an artist and designer and is often called upon to create artwork and decorations for family events. Jeff is a more laid-back presence on the show, providing a nice balance to Bart's larger-than-life personality and Domo's more serious demeanor.

The Capones is a well-produced show that is full of humor, drama, and heart. The show does not shy away from the Capone family's infamous history but also humanizes them in a way that is both unexpected and refreshing. The Capones is a show that will appeal to fans of reality TV, history buffs, and anyone who enjoys a good family drama.

In conclusion, The Capones is an entertaining reality show that offers a fresh perspective on one of the most notorious families in American history. The show's focus on family dynamics and relationships, rather than on organized crime, makes it accessible to a wide audience. The Capones is a must-watch for anyone who is interested in Chicago history, family dramas, or just wants to be entertained.
