When should I expect The Wire to get good? NO SPOILERS!

Although certainly some pretty big shite happens, that really isn't this show or why its considered so important.

its focus on realism, more than any show before it, is what the hype behind it is.

My advice: skip The Wire and watch or re-watch The Shield, which is a superior cop show.

When you get to Season 3, just know its a current rebuttal to every progressive, community policing policy currently under consideration or enacted.

Hamsterdam concept is something liberal cities thought would work, still thinks works and is nothing but outright failure.

Thats one reason why its a great show.

To me it takes off when Kima goes undercover and that goes to shite

That’s my turning point

But stick it out anyway. It’s so great
