Finally getting around to watching The Wire. Almost done with season 1 now. It started off a little slow, but by episode 4 or 5 I was definitely hooked. Great show.

if you've missed it, homicide is a good series... at least the first 3 seasons and the movie. season 4-5 suffered from good writers and good actors leaving (for LA, since it was shot in baltimore) and being replaced by guys that weren't as good.

The Wire is definitely one of the greatest shows ever. I don't know if its level of detail and realism will ever be matched.

My buddy keeps telling me to watch this show... Simon's series before The Wire, right?

In my opinion, when hbo was running the sapranos, the wire and Six ft under, that was the greatest period of American drama ever on tv. Writing, acting and production was hitting on all cyclinders in everyone of those shows. Television had never seen anything like it before and it inspired so much we see today.

The third season is really good, but the fourth season is unbelievable.
I still miss poor Dookie.

Anyone get a chance to power through House of Cards yet? I've got 2 episodes left... Frank Underwood is no joke.

Re: What Shows Are You Watching?
 

yeah, i think season 1 was better. i don't understand how you can become the president and still be dumb enough not to see your VP playing you every day in every way. it doesn't make a ton of sense. and he killed kate mara...

Just started season 2 last night.

I had already heard about what happened, almost impossible to avoid spoilers these days. Trying hard to avoid any more.

Yeah, it's tough nowadays. There's season recaps everywhere... Will def. not say another word on here until most have finished it.

Re: What Shows Are You Watching?
