It gets better. The end of season 2 is excellent and faster paced than the end of 1 IMO. Definitely keep watching

Two is my least favorite season, but you're doing yourself a great injustice by not watching seasons 3 and 4.

It is. Quite easily too. Season 4 and 5 are better than anything the wire has done. But loyalists will defend it to the end.

With this show being 5 seasons, is it worth it to keep going?


How do you know what a television is, and not know the reputation of The Wire as being one of the best things ever put on it? How do you have 27000 posts, and not've ever come across one Wire thread ever?

Season 2 can be summed up in one word: Sobotka.

That's really the only thing I can remember from that season.

I disagree, and I'm no loyalist to either show really.

Breaking Bad is a great show and fantastic television, but The Wire is still the best show I've ever seen. And I've seen both for the first time within the last year and a half or so.

it is a good enough show that i shouldn't really outright say BB is better. i'll correct myself on that end.
