The Wire with Die Hard level catchphrases would be comedy.

Show would be untouchable then.

We could count "sheeeeeeeeeiiiiitttt" as a catchphrase. I say that shyt at least once a week, too.

And The Wire is the GOAT because even though it had such a large cast, pretty much every character had enough development that they could potentially be the main character in their own series. Especially with all the little/unstated shyt (Cheese being Randy's father, or the old homicide chief being a closeted homosexual).

it was hard to follow one damn story line.
between the detectives and omar, there wasn't much to follow.
they killed d, wallace, string and anybody else what was worth a damn to watch.

Breh, I just don't think this show is for you. Sounds like all the intended points are just missing you, or going oveer your head.

Out of curiousity, what shows DO you consider as the best?

cause the sopranos exists

its second tho :suckmydikk:

This.

The Wire was all right but to me the best show is The Sopranos but I've already told y'all that like a million times.

The Wire was cool but it didn't catch my attention as much. I mean it was good but some episodes dragged along a little.

The best season was the 4th, that one was piff. The 2nd one at the docks was pretty good too. I liked every season except the 5th one with the newspapers and all that.

I'm thinking of rewatching the whole thing. I might cop the boxset for cheap this Xmas and watch it all over again.

I got Sopranos at #3 behind The Wire and Breaking Bad....after the first 2 seasons the rest were just alright with a few classic eps mixed in. Season 6 was trash too esp the first half.

they did not kill off all the good characters. that's not true. and even the characters that got killed off or put in jail, they replaced them with new characters which were just as good. and catch phrases.....

only one I know is the clay davis "SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTT" thing.

Only beef I have with the wire is that they never broadcast it in HD. especially the later seasons.

its really tough to assign a number to them all 3 different styles of shows but all three great

its impossible to rank them its just going to be different for everyone

but I think that they are the top 3 goat shows by far
