I don't know why it took me so long to get around to it. It's a masterclass in story telling and puts the city of Baltimore up as the star. Only beef was watching Littlefinger as the mayor (who was just okay).
My Top 5 of all time:
1. The Sopranos
2. Breaking Bad

re: Are there any drummers on here?
Posted by Big Chipper on 6/26/24 at 8:20 am
