A new heavyweight drama series on HBO set in New Jersey.
Johnny Infantino is the leader of a Mafia crime âfamilyâ called Mafifa. His business is the extortion of the game of association football worldwide. And drugs, and cryptocurrency fraud, and prostitution and human trafficking.
He collaborates with every despotic regime under the sun in order to become the biggest underworld figure on earth.
But he is never happier than when he is at home with his buddies in New Jersey.
The intro of the show sees Johnny Infantino driving an SUV while smoking a cigar. He has a gruff look on his face. He emerges from the Lincoln Tunnel and we see the New York skyline off to the side including a close up of the two towers of the World Trade Centre, with a plane crashing into one of them. Then we see Johnny taking a ticket at the toll booth for the New Jersey Turnpike and driving through the industrial wasteland of New Jersey before he reaches his destination, MetLife Stadium, the venue for the 2026 World Cup final. The theme music is âWoke Up This Morningâ by Alabama 3.
Johnnyâs catchphrase is âIâm a legitimate businessmanâ
The climax of series sees Johnny attending the World Cup final in New Jersey between Brazil and Italy, where he attempts to close a deal with another major mafia figure Don Trumpo. But trouble is afoot. Will he survive?

A Larry Sanders Show-style satire of FIFA President Gianni âJohnnyâ Infantino.
In the show, Infantino has devised and produced a new self-glorifying sitcom for the American market called âEverybody Loves Johnnyâ. âEverybody Loves Johnnyâ culminates in Donald Trump presenting the second FIFA Peace Prize to Johnny Infantino.
âEverybody Loves Johnnyâ is savaged by world media. âThe worst television programme ever madeâ, says the New York Times. âWorse than Heil Honey Iâm Homeâ, says The Guardian. âWorse than Leave It To Mrs. OâBrienâ, says the Irish Times.
Everybody Hates Johnny follows Infantino during the making and broadcasting of his sitcom and his enraged reaction to the negative critical reception and his enlisting of powerful geopolitical allies to punish the media organisations which criticised it.

A new Italian rugby magazine show to be broadcast on Channel 4. Each week presenter James Richardson brings us all the news from the fanatical rugby hotbed of Italy, where rugby isnât just a matter of life and death, itâs much more important than that.
The programme is centred around presenter James sitting in an Italian piazza with an oversized mug of some kind of coffee and/or ice cream on a table in front of him, as he peruses the Italian newspapers like La Gazzetta Dello Sport and the Corriere Della Sera and their obsession with Treviso, Zebre and the beloved national team, the Azzurri.
Then each Sunday thereâs a live match with commentary by Ryle Nugent and featuring guest English language pundits who are familiar with the Italian scene like Lawrence Dallaglio, David Campese and Conor OâShea and Italian legends like Sergio Parisse, Diego Dominguez and Mauro Bergamasco.
A group of architects led by Dermot Bannon spends a winter visiting different sporting organisations to design new competition formats for each of them.
Bannon pitches an idea to each sporting organisation for rules changes to their sports and new competition formats based on a high profile architecture plan. Then he makes the plan more elaborate, more labyrinthine and more expensive.
For instance, Bannonâs pitch to the GAA is based on the recently approved plan to demolish and re-build the St. Stephenâs Green Shopping Centre.
The new GAA format features a basement (a revamped Taliban Cup), shopping on the ground floor (a transfer market) and mixed use development (nobody knows what that means but it definitely involves the league being part of the championship). Thereâs an extension (featuring two back doors and a fire escape) and a multi-level mezzanine (group stages).
Each sporting organisation will be expected to engage extensively with the media to trumpet the benefits of each new plan, even if itâs horrifically ugly, which it will be. Conor Glass is expected to be a spokesman for the new Bannon-designed format, as Bannon has few ideas other than having as much glass as possible.
A period portrait short screen drama to be shown on RTE 2 at 1:15am after the coverage of the 11pm World Cup match has ended but before RTE pick up the world feed commentary for the 2am World Cup match at 1:52am.
It is Dublin in 1957. Rashers Plunkett is a 58 year old man living on his own in a house in The Liberties. He has one companion - his dog, Spot, a border collie who Rashers took in as a stray in 1943.
Our period drama follows Rashers and Spotâs life. Rashers takes his faithful companion Spot everywhere. He takes him to his job as a caretaker at a local primary school, he takes him to the shop to get the newspaper, he takes him to Richmond Park to see St. Patâs, he takes him on the train to Bray, he takes him to the local pub, where he allows Spot to take a slug of his pint of plain. Rashers will always make two dinners of coddle. One for himself, and another for Spot.
Then Spot dies, and Rashers is sad. Our period drama ends with Rashers still going to the pub, but struggling without his companion.
Starring:
Keith Treacy as Rashers Plunkett
Carrie Crowley as Mrs. Byrne
