How good are these shows?
Im being told to watch both, I've heard both are incredible.
Im not trolling, I just want to know if its worth my money to buy the first season of each.

I need to watch the Wire.
But pretty much anyone who's seen it thinks it's incredible.
The Shield is perhaps the best and most consistent show I've ever seen.
The fact that it was on FX still blows me away.

Haven't seen the wire. The Shield was unlike anything I was watching on basic cable when it premiered and the first episode had me hooked. Cletus Van Damme FTMFW.

Both fantastic. The Wire is my all time favorite, The Shield is borderline top 5. The Shield is the more accessible show. Probably the best at balancing episode to episode excitement with season long story arcs.

The Wire is better IMO. It was far more realistic.
I also like The Shield. It is a bit more fast paced but also more far fetched.

The Shield was good, but its not even close to being in the same class as The Wire. But really, not a whole lot is in the same class with The Wire. The Wire is perfection.
The Shield is definitely worth watching though.
Wish I could watch them both for the first time again.

the wire is my probably the best cable series EVER. #1 on my list for sure.

Both are great series. You'll get sucked into the Shield pretty quickly. It's my recollection that it took a couple or three episodes of the Wire before things really start happening. So, don't give up too soon. But, the Wire is the better series, in my opinion.
