Grave Is The End with William DeMeo - Chazz Palminteri Show | EP 81

[@deanmachine8520]

Very awesome production 🇮🇹🇮🇹

[@olguiq1013]

Just started watching...love it. Also, live right by Mimis Italian place, in Hollywood, Fla. Adore this eatery; pleasantly surprised to see it in the series. More series please ❤

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

I saw Chazz give a lecture years ago and it was one of the best most inspirational lectures that I ever heard. Also I worked on a film years ago with this "William DeMeo" and we hit it off really well (or so I thought) and he promised me (I didn't ask) that he wanted to cast me in a movie he was about to cast (one of his own vanity projects as usual) to make a long story short he gave me "the runaround" and I heard he does this to "struggling" actors often. He kisses the butts of "important" people but f_ks around the ones he considerers nobodies. He tries to come across as a "neighborhood guy" a "stand up guy" but he is not a stand up guy at all and he's an awful actor a Johnny one note and that's all he will ever be unless he's doing his own vanity projects and casting himself in leading man parts that he would never be cast in. Willie is my least favorite "actor" and my least favorite person. What he pulled on me for no reason was not cool And he's suppose to be an "our guy" well me being a true Italian American I will never forget what he did! Don't buy this nice guy act! In the words of 'Ralph Kramden" he's a BUM LOL!

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

@MiamiBoy Jewish or Italian he is not a decent human being at least not to me. What he pulled on me was not cool to say the least!

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

@MiamiBoy Doesn't surprise me.

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

@MiamiBoy At least he never got the chance to use me. Not even "using" me in his movie lmao.

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

@MiamiBoy Show biz folk in general like to present everything as a positive. They don't talk about the negative aspects of show business and the people in it and those trying to get in it very often.

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

@MiamiBoy If he and his friends come visit me at my house I will have a "nice" house warming awaiting for them.

The show is great i think ,i love all the old school guys that are in gravesend. Its very enjoyable series.keep it going william

[@philaforty8]

I like that "The Expendables of the wise guys."

[@jameswbell7084]

Socially awkward as it may be, one cannot ignore basic facts. These are: 1) write the story 2) direct the story 3) cast myself as main lead throughout story. History of filmography proves this is a narcissistic downfall that should be avoided. Branagh with Hamlet was less severe only because Shakespeare wrote text. In Gravesend the painful truth is William Demeo actually got better performances from co-actors than himself. A great shame if you're supposed to be character who is most pivotal to the plot?!

[@mamabear000]

William seems phony balony. 😂😂

[@MalEvansUSA]

William demeo. Nice kid. Hard working. God love em. But Jesus Christ he is an Awful actor. Chazz is the Beatles. William is like Herman’s hermits. William has zero charisma or any kind of stage presence Cabbage patch was big in 1982 and not 1987. Again authenticity You want the definition of authenticity it’s called a bronx tale. You want a real authentic actor. His name is Chazz palminteri. Case closed

[@MalEvansUSA]

Authenticity is hard to replicate . Sadly authenticity in a leading man like William demeo is non existent. This series is god. awful. Chazz and all the great supporting characters can’t save this. Gabriela his daughter is real deal. She is excellent. She has grace style and real charisma. Sadly this amateur vehicle isn’t the right platform for her talents

[@slgordon3]

A lot of fake comments seem to follow this William Demeo, regardless of the platform. Not sure if it’s family and friends or if he just straight up pays for fake praise or what.

[@k.aliazad4388]

The cast is top notch! I respect Mr DeMeo for realizing his dream 🌟👌🏾

[@ppny48]

So many people all agree that Gravesend is unwatchable. Demeo terrible actor. Why is chazz involved with this?

[@AtheistVitalist]

I knew Will first from the Mafia (2002) game. I wonder if he remembers voice acting for it.

[@Rob-rj9je]

Everyone knows Cris Casas Demeo is not making it as an actor. Cris gets all his roles because of Willie. The only time you see Cris in a role is if William Demeo directs, produces or has a role in the film Or if one of william's friends is producing the show such as Paul Borghese or Armand Madeo. William Demeo asked Bruce Soscia to give Cris Demeo a role in The Families Feud and William returned the favor by giving Bruce Soscia a role in gravesend. As a parent, I am happy my son can get work on his own and stand on his own two feet and live on his own. william demeo must be embarrassed that he has a lazy son.

[@Kenneth-nb4lz]

Your acting like he stole a girlfriend or something?

[@shawnleighton339]

​@Kenneth-nb4lz probably did. tough to be respected when you got so much to say about another man.

[@Rob-rj9je]

All the fake positive comments seem to be from willie's friends and people who worked on Gravesend. Chazz got paid a nice sum to remove all the critics who pointed out how willie demeo ripped off other filmmakers scripts and other mob movie scenes.

[@ppny48]

Yes rob it is obvious

[@herbgonzalez81]

Haven’t been back home to Brooklyn, N.Y. for a few years. But, the “Best Pizza in Bklyn” is/was located on “Pitkin Ave & Rockaway;” (Pick either side of Rockaway Ave. because there was two of’em)'; If the (waiting) line was a bit too long, we’d just walk across the street & half way up the block, to the other one). The Beef Patty’s & Zeppos were also 2nd to none. Lastly, The next best Pizzaria (in Brooklyn) was across the street from Knickerbocker Park !!!

[@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879]

Sorry William demeo is a horrid leading guy. I think if you casted pee wee Herman in a mob tv series you would have William Demeo and gravesend sadly. He has no charisma nor any kind of screen aura. I hate to be harsh but he is as good an actor as Sofia Coppola. Chazz is phenomenal. I love his podcasts and his wisdom. He is a top flight actor performer. Chazz and Stallone are in Italian hall of fame of the all time greats of actors. Case closed

Great Interview!!!

[@johnbeechy]

19:35// from what i Heard (Not amber Again!), the rule was for Made Men (guys) 'no press, no photos, no not a thing, for why be out there if This is the life?' so by being in any pic the Made guy now has to admit to being walked up to by any fan, at any time and that too is dangerous why want strangers that Might have seen 'Mausoleum' (1983) produced by a Made Guy Mike F why put that into a Chance meeting where it might be used by the enemy to score a new Track? so really the Rule was about No PR ego trip at home with the Family (mob included), but the many outsiders were not to know better coz there r laws and temptations and there is a lot of heroin on them studio lots (back in the day). cocaine too and all that can be used onset with the Made Guy onset too, as evidence to GET Caught on film, or other wiseless mediums 'L A Confidential' is a nice movie to refer as what happens to 'hop heads' (actors). But the same ego trip that drew Gotti to the Light too close and its a greek tragedy is the same kind of light that tricked Bugsy myop once some(sum1) makes the decision to role play for the rest of their life (pause for the cause of freedom to express self) they really should rattle shake and roll until they drop and not leave the path unless of course once gets Caught then they turn over more often than a record in a juke box machine. // Bikers are allowed to do what they want some believe it is because with the jackets on and the long hair (u know, quick kill hard ID), the INK. they appear to Look alike each other beyond height, most could not be pulled out of a Court room if they were clean shaven they'd look like any January 6th lolol and Chazz used real Bikers too in Bronx T, so Chazz knows this more than any one If there were one exception to the Rule it may have to do with a member of the Family (mob) being told to Join the Union(s). SAG is only one union. if the mob were to make moves on the union they'd have to send their own into the different unions, as labor units. secure the LOOK from inside before reading the real books. and then that Made set of Guys that be working in Film in all sorts of jobs and paid positions. they be Known as Union members first and their mob job is to work as a labor unit, and watch the union (guys) and make sure all goes according to the Plan. what ever that plan is // eg: some Made Guy is sent to 'watch over the alec B kid'. so instead of alec B having another shoot out at the OK Corral job site the Made Guy onset reviews all last minute props aka guns that be used and that Made Guy is paid to ensure all goes WELL (money wise) but to really be on the set, he has to be union, even though alec hires non union staffers U C the Point? non union sets may well be more dangerous and they need a Made Guy to set the set right // like when Tom Cruise (high level member of the Scientology Church and have many Friends in High Places) Told (YELLED) his staff in London (making Mission impMovies back to back during covid) 'U will be GONE!' (tom did not mean fired, he meant GONE to live with the fishes getting access to the cash flow from the dues of the many unions as a loan with lower than the current interest rate and with Protecton services included that could be a deal Made but few good men even consider it for they know the Rule No PR No press no thing needed ego trip in house and leave the sheep to wet dream into another overseas mission (with out winning) impossible another great interview Johnny Carson might have called Chazz up to do a Monday Night. // God Bless

On season 2 now. William Demeo is fantastic. I cant believe the cast. This is the best cast ever. I mean you have the legends Chazz, Dice, Chuck Zito, William Forsythe, Armand Assante (the best Gotti ever in a movie). You throw in Leo Rossi Mario Cantone and Vic DiBitetto and you laugh your A** off. .. I mean Tony Darrow and Vincent Pastore not to mention Louis Lombardi, memories of The Sopranos.
