re: Has a show ever gone from really good, to bad then BACK to good?

I’m here at Sonic, ready to fight anyone who slanders The Wire season 2.

Jk of course. But that’s just, like, your opinion man.

Season two was a lot like the last season because they concentrated on something other that the hood. Season 2 spent time on where the hood chieftains were getting their product. The last season spent a lot of time on how the media covered the situation.

I hated the way the show ended because all of the dirty politicians and cops never got in any trouble. I guess that's the way it works in most situations like that. Having grown up in Concordia Parish during the reign of Sheriff Noah Cross and his chief deputy Frank DeLaughter. Both "served time in federal prison in the 1970s. Both were forbidden to return to work in law enforcement and neither as convicted felons could carry a weapon."

I didn't know anything about them until I was grown, and started reading Stanley Nelson's cold case articles on the Concordia Sentinel. All I knew about them was that everyone in the parish was afraid of them.

Those article used to all be free. I started at the bottom of that page and read every article. When I asked my parents about all of the corruption I found out they tried to get my dad to join the Klan when he started working at the International Paper Co. mill in Natchez. Same with my uncle when he started there.

It just goes to show, things like that can't go on in any area, or in any era, without someone in law enforcement or the local government being complicit. Just like we are hearing about China's relation to our countries Fentanyl problem, drugs come somewhere. Season 2 was establshing where the drugs were coming from, and who was benefiting the most from the drug trade.
