First time watching 3 episodes in. Seems like good show and I loved The Wire. Youtube Legends of the unwired the Avon Barksdale story can't link sry.
How realistic and accurate is Treme? All the Obama love is funny and talking bout a broke state back then.
TIA

quote:
basically the rest of the show is like this...
character walks down street while stepping over debris from a house that is being rebuilt/torn down and says - "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
he then goes to a bar with a band...
black folk sew costumes to pretend they are Indians, and tell each other "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
they all go to another character's bar with awesome band
another character walks down the street with a friend and instruments for some reason and friend gets shot - other character cries a little bit and says ""there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
then she goes to a bar with her instrument and plays...
teenage girl is a trouble maker and whorish and does drugs...mom says to her "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
mom and daughter go to bar and listen to music...
a murder investigation is sort of going on with police who look at each other and say "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
another character has absolutely no song writing skills or world skills but since he owns lots of music and knows every dump in the city that someone took a dump he expects to get paid lots of money because he believes that "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
he goes to lots of bars and listens to lots of bands
another character believes that $50 - $75 "creole and Cajun food" in a restaurant is the most important thing in the world, and also wants to make a certain drink and certain dishes in her restaurant that captures the essence of New Orleans and she says "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
she goes to bars and listens to bands
all the characters go to "Carnival" a.k.a. Mardi Gras but everyone is this city says Carnival because "there is something about this city, (deep breath) , nothing like it!"
the end...

It is one of the most boring shows in television history. That really isn't hyperbole.
I guess if you like watching jazz or like watching people who are watching jazz then maybe you will be one of the 25 folks who love this show.

The forced Nola dialect and jargon turned me off. At one point Wendell Pierce's wife said they hadn't visited her mom in over two Mardi Gras. Been in Nola over 30 yrs and I've never heard someone use Mardi Gras as a duration of time.
