The Wire

Just finished watching this masterpiece of a TV show and for the life of me I don't think I can recall a better one! Amazing characterization, amazing acting, immense themes and just all round awesomeness! Has anyone else watched it? What are some of your other favorite TV shows.

Sorry for the off-topic article but I just had to share this.

Watched this again this month and my mind was blown 10 times as much as during the 1st time. Was baffled at how much I missed the first time I watched! Nothing will ever come close to The Wire, nothing!

For sure these are great shows you mention, but The Wire can never be bettered. It's the hardest show to pull off Imo, and sure their were a couple missteps but, that's cos of the standard it set itself.
Hampered by the writers strike in the end, but by then had solidified its status as one of the all-time greats.
I'm not one of these that will slate off another great show just to prove a point, it's just The Wire is for me, perfection in every way.
Right now, I'm all about Boyd v Raylan, in 'Justified'!!!

The kids these days, of which this site has a massive number, demand answers and cling to favorites more so than any other generation.

Glory hunting is at a maximum and they even try and pit down messi or Rinaldo based on nothing.
