I see this is the thread for aging hipsters to criticize popular shows. Carry on.


its a good show, its just pathetic when a middle age white man comes on here proclaiming how real and authentic it was.

its a good show with entertaining characters, but it isnt a glimpse into urban black culture like some would like to believe.

You do realize that the people who created and made the show were writers and cops in Baltimore, right? And most of the characters on the show were based on real, actual people.

"Middle aged white men" aren't the only ones who praised the show for its realism...almost everybody did.
