You have shitty tastes in television.
I watched 2 seasons of SoA over a few weeks. It was a good show, but it was getting worse and I never had the care to watch S3. I've only seen the first 2 episodes of FNL and didn't much care for it, but I'll give it another shot one day. The Wire had me interested from the first scene, and quickly came to love it. My (VERY close) 2nd favorite drama ever behind Breaking Bad. The average show, I'd give an edge to The Wire, but nothing ever put on television compares to the last 4 or so episode so BB S4.

Season 3 of SoA gets off real slow but has an incredible finale.
Season 4 was meh.

or The Wire
It may be the best show I've seen. I did not watch one single episode until after last Christams, my brother bought season 1 for me as a gift. Shortly after I finished that season, I got seasons 2 and 3 for my birthday. Shorthly after that, I went and bought seasons 4&5.
I had heard from a lot of friends and family how great it was but never got around to watching it. I also saw plenty of threads on this board talking about it but never read them because I didn't want to have any more build up or find out something in advance.
I have not seen the other two shows you have narrowed it down to but The Wire is brilliant

If you are patient with The Wire it will pay off. It's a great show

I watched the first 4 episodes and never really cared. Went back about a year later and watched the first season and I loved it. I just bought the second season.
I do love FNL though

the wire

The Wire, but on your next selection thing about watching The West Wing.

Party Down is a rock solid comedy series. only loose episode-to-episode season spanning storylines though.

The Wire then Friday Night Lights

Not knocking the show AT ALL. But I sometimes wonder if all of those who go back and give the wire another shot and then love it are living it because they are SUPPOSED to love it. Seems to be a reoccurring statement on here. It's like you are persecuted "shitty taste in television" by normally good posters if it's not THE GREATEST SHOW EVER.
