Just started a rewatch and damn, it is GOAT. The only series that can still keep my attention even though I've already watched it.

Is the Wire any good? I've never seen much discussion about it on message boards. Also curious about Breaking Bad.

I've tried, still on season 2. I'll watch a few when I don't have anything else to watch. I'm sure it gets better.

frick all of you. I felt my 2nd go around deserved a new thread. The Wire is much more re-watchable than GOT. Maybe because I'm a maester

Based upon your statements here, we will be commencing a meeting of the Archmaesters at the Citadel to discuss the appropriateness of your continued membership in the order.

I literally can't see him as any other character. Especially when he showed up in Jessica Jones.

I was going to quit posting on TDs but you gave me hope and a renewed sense of purpose. I had already seen the Wire, but now know I have a fallback if ever I can find anything else to watch.

Expect things to change. Each season is fairly different from the one before it. But everything is interconnected. But one reason people struggle sometimes with S2 is because it is so drastically different than S1.


Also, to the OP:

Don't waste your time watching either one. You'll see plenty of folks commenting that The Wire is the GOAT or that BB is the GOAT but those opinions normally originate in the many Glaucoma facilities across our great nation.

No need to thank me.

I disagree.

Even if you've seen GoT once, during the rewatch, you're still learning a ton of new info you didn't catch the first go around.

This show should be right up my alley, but it just didn't quite do it for me.

Not saying it wasn't good, some seasons had me reeled in but others I didn't find myself caring very much.

I stopped early in the final season, never finished.

That could be a good thing.

I am kind of juggling three shows right now during my long bus trips through the Balkans.

I am up to season 4 of Game of Thrones on my rewatch.
Through season 3 of House of Cards(don't know if I can continue this much longer...it fell off a cliff)
Through season 1 of the Wire

The Wire is the greatest American literary work of the 21st century.
