Good to be bad: History channel premieres Gangland Undercover Season 2, and new series Outlaw Chronicles: Hell's Angels

HISTORY (Astro Channel 555/575) is back with season two of Gangland Undercover, premiering tomorrow and airing on Fridays at 10pm.

Charles Falco is one of three men ever to infiltrate three different outlaw biker gangs. With his expertise and courage, he has helped law enforcement bring some of America’s most dangerous gangs to justice. With a combination of interviews and high-end recreation, each episode unfolds a different step in Falco’s covert investigations.

Season two picks up with Falco seeking refuge from the aftermath of Operation 22 Green against the Vagos. Almost a year after the busts, he is living a strange new life as a man with no identity, in an unfamiliar Virginia town.

This season introduces new characters (and the surprising return of some old ones) and we’ll see Falco’s wits tested to the limits as he joins ranks with Bullet: A relentless undercover lawman with a personal grudge against bike gangs.

Together, they recruit a team of confidential informants to infiltrate not just the Mongols, but also The Outlaws, one of the most violent biker gangs in America.

As Falco navigates his way through faked murders, armed confrontations, misjudged drug deals and gunpoint polygraph tests, the season culminates with a massive, Fourth Of July Outlaw rally at which Falco finally earns his patch, setting the table for a potential season three in which Falco’s earlier mistakes come back to haunt him as he goes deeper into his infiltration.

Also premiering on History is new series Outlaw Chronicles: Hells Angels, airing Fridays at 11pm starting tomorrow.

It takes a deep look into the untold stories of the infamous biker gang Hells Angels through the words of George Christie, who presided over the Ventura chapter (branch), in California, for 35 years.

Combining stylised interviews with Christie, along with archival footage and recreation, each episode of the six-part series tells a different tale that Christie has never before made public.
