Gangster TV is the 10th level/channel of Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko. Gex dresses up as a mobster here, named in supplementary material as GEX Capone. One of the missions here is to rescue Gex's cousin, Cuz, who will become available to play as in secret levels afterwards.

Setting and inspiration

The level is set in New York City based on the gangster film subgenre of American crime films focusing on gangs and organized crime, which saw its golden days within the 1930s. The level's name however is a reference to the TV sitcom My Three Sons.
