Gomorrah is set in the suburbs of Naples, focusing on organised crime and the relationships of gangsters, drug dealers, and ordinary people. It offers a different style of mafia portrayal from previous series such as The Sopranos, or other Italian series like Il Capo dei Capi. Gomorrah is similar to The Wire in showing street-level crime and its hierarchical organisation from the pavement up to the office chair, and giving an audience a story about external and internal power struggles between criminals and delinquents. Described as "ugly in a good way," the series is fast-paced, concentrating on cold emotive content for dramatic effect.
Starting from 6 May 2014, Gomorrah ran on Sky Italia with approximately 1.2 million viewers per episode. Beta Film sold the rights to screen the series in more than 130 countries.
Season 2 premiered on 10 May 2016.
