Fugget About It

When New York mafia caporegime Jimmy Falcone kills his mob boss, he and his family enter the Witness Protection Program and move to the small, snowy town of Regina, Saskatchewan.

Fugget About It is a Canadian adult animated mafia comedy that ran from 2012 to 2016 across three seasons, produced for Comedy Central and Adult Swim. Jimmy Falcone is a New York mob caporegime who kills his boss and is pushed into witness protection with his family, relocated to the small snowy town of Regina, Saskatchewan. His engine is the mismatch between his old criminal identity and his bland new surroundings. He wants to keep his family authority intact while local life and federal supervision keep getting in his way. Special Agent Strait McCool keeps close watch over the household, while domestic friction within the family adds to the chaos. Each episode is a self-contained case of mob bluster colliding with Canadian politeness. The tone is sardonic, bawdy, and breezy, with gleeful crude humor and gangster parody. Fans of animated mob satire and fish out of water comedy will find plenty to enjoy here.

Reception is sparse, but the animated mob parody is the main point of praise, with early seasons the common complaint.
