I'm a Sopranos, Boardwalk Empire, True Detective fan. Looking for a new series to watch. Should I try The Wire?

Yes. A healthy number of people (myself included) consider it the greatest show of all-time.

Start watching now. Go. Stop what you're doing and just go.

Not sure. It’s better than all the series you listed. Are you looking for something good or bad?

It is better than all but Sopranos and as good as The Sopranos.

It's a GOAT candidate.

Yes.

I enjoyed it. It has some likable, and very memorable, characters on both sides of the law.

Yes. Got my SO to watch it (I wanted a rewatch) earlier this year and it’s now quoted on the regular around the house.

It won't blow you away as being the TV series if that's what you are expecting. Season 1 and 2 will have you wanting more but it's downhill from there. It's a good series but if anyone tells you it's great, they are fooling you. It's not.
