How far did you get? If you don't start enjoying it by at least the 7th or 8th episode of Season 1, it just may not be for you.
100%
Not every show is for everyone even ones with universal acclaim.
I would also say skipping to the 2nd season could be dicey. S2 is almost universally considered the nadir unless someone is arguing one particular storyline in S5. I admit S2 is probably my least favorite but I appreciate it more with each rewatch but even when I appreciated it least I still thought it was great TV.
OP is a bit of a contrarian (not meant as a pejorative) so I am not 100% sure his post is sincere but The Wire is simply not for everyone just most people consider it very high-level TV.

However, for those that don't like or can't get into The Wire, of course not everyone sees something the same. That's not a shade - although it may get to a point that if you dislike every show MTV recommends, it's more on you.
