Series overview
Launched as a two-hour made-for-television movie, Our Family Honor is about two New York City families who had known each other since their childhoods and who were involved in competing "family businesses". The McKay family mostly worked for the New York City Police Department, where Patrick (Kenneth McMillan) was Commissioner, while the Danzigs were deeply involved in organized crime, with patriarch Vincent (Eli Wallach) filling the role of "godfather". Barbara Stuart played Vincent's wife, Marianne Danzig, while Michael Madsen played Vincent's cruel but inept son, Augie, who was nonetheless his heir apparent. Detective Sergeant Frank McKay (Tom Mason) was Patrick's often hot-headed son, Liz McKay (Daphne Ashbrook), Patrick's niece, was a newly graduated officer now partnered with Officer Ed Santini (Ray Liotta, in a recurring role). She was romantically involved with Vincent's other son, Jerry (Michael Woods), who wanted out of his father's business and used the name "Jerry Cole" in order to minimize any connection with his father's family. Despite the program's large budget and large, impressive cast, it was cancelled due to low ratings. The show ended with Augie dying in a gunfight with Frank, who was coming to arrest him for his involvement in the murder of Rita's lover.[5]
