How Infamous Mafioso 'Sammy The Bull' Gravano Is Adjusting To Life Outside Of Prison

Salvatore "Sammy the Bull" Gravano was a "ferocious mafioso" and spent 18 years in prison. Right now, in a couple of weeks, the underboss of the Gambino crime family member (John Gotti was also a piece of this New York City organized crime unit) will star on the brand-new MTV series Families of the Mafia with his daughter Karen Gravano and her offspring Karina.


But before Sammy (and his loved ones) present the high-stakes realities of four mafia-tied families at a crossroads on Staten Island (a glimpse of the show is above), how is the patriarch adjusting to life outdoor of the penitentiary?


"He's getting reacclimated back inside society," Karen reveals about her parent in the clip below. "He's learning about how to use a cellphone, those TVs where you could talk into a remote control. He thinks it's the coolest sh*t."


How is Karina making a relationship with her grandfather? And why does Karen describe growing up with Sammy as her father? Watch the mother-daughter duo reveal more -- and never miss them and their fellow cast members on Families of the Mafia, debuting on April 9 at 9/8c!
