Just Starting Watching 'The Wire' And...

[GASign]

The Wire >>>>>

 

[LiquidMasterSwords]

It's boring me to sleep. I'm through the first 6 episodes and it's not immediately catching my attention like Breaking Bad or Boardwalk Empire or The Sopranos did. They show the Police too much and the shyt is super predictable and boring. It's supposed to be one of the best series ever and I really wanna give it a chance. I know everyone has seen it, so tell me. Does it start to pick up, or is it like this the entire series?? No trolls please. Looking for serious answers of people who have seen the series..

Out of curiosity did you finish the series? What do you think now if you did? My friend just started the show for the first time yesterday and now I've found myself watching again.

Man you gon hate season 2 lol

 

[Xyrax]

It pains me when I see people watch this show, then snap on it because it doesn't have a bunch of bombastic unrealistic bullshyt CGI and explosions and shyt to keep their attention like Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones. I mean damn. C'mon man...

Just started watching it again, a few weeks ago. About to start season 4

 

[Max Power]

The Wire ruined a lot of future shows for me. I couldn't even stomach the first season of Power.

 

[Crashwd5]

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

Been thinking about rewatching this for the millionth time but I know I’ll be stuck watching it for the next week

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

It's called the "Wire" for a reason

P.s. I just started watching The Deuce and it's nice seeing nikkas from the Wire eating
HBO takes care of it's people

 

[Cadillac]

Heard the series is good and read and watched how it was high quality

But never watched it myself

Seen a few eps of it

 

[KING WILL]

I love the wire. Easily my fav/best show ever.

I cant expect everyone to like it as much as I did, but damn how could you not like the dialogue, story, and characters is crazy beyond me.

I got pulled in from the 1st scene about snot...

I get it's a very slow burn, especially after hearing the hype about it.

But when Bay pulls D outta the truck and tells him to explain the rules of talking about family shyt, how does that not intrigue you??

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

I'm tryna watch now. On season 3 ep 5

Stringer's british accent is throwing me off

I think a few of the cast was British. I know him and Mcnulty. Can't recall who else was.

 

[Cave Savage]

The only thing I didn't like about The Wire was a certain thing in Season 5 that was very dumb
