Official The Wire VS Snowfall power rankings

[Goat poster]

Snowfall is dope


But the Wire is in a whole other stratosphere

 

[Apprentice]

True

What about Power? Is the wire better than power?


Is the wire one of them shows you look back at and be like na…shyt was trash? I’ve tried to watch it. Maybe I need to try again

Back then it might’ve been cool but now I’m over the exploitation

nikka what Power is ass that Dragonball Z ass drug show

Top Boy feels more realistic and more gritty than The Wire. It also has better wardrobing and production value although it benefits from its time there. It's also more true to the culture of its location than The Wire is too.

The Wire's advantage is that its a show that by season shows the corruption of a city from every level. Streets, docks, schools, politics, journalism, police. I don't feel its a "realistic" show though.

What’s not realistic to you?

Teresa was surviving missile attacks from F16’s

I like the wire but I hate y’all fans fr. Y’all act tv is not worth watching anymore because the wire is the best tv show in the world y’all nikkas need a wire church atp but snowfall isn’t better than the wire for sure.

We can’t help that it’s’ greatness makes everything look like trash. Good TV will do that

What’s unrealistic about the wire?

A lot of shyt. Snoop and Chris body count for starters.

A lot of the actors are New Yorkers not Baltimoreans and they didn't even try to act like it.

Top Boy is more realistic especially in its first season. The Wire is not realistic like that. The realism is in The Corner.

Snoop-Chris had like 10 bodies between 2 of ‘em

Wire did a better job than most shows capturing the tone and mood of city. Snoop, Prop Joe, Deacon etc were all Baltimore bred heads

Wayne Perry was one person with a body count higher than snoop and Chris

Alpo literally got a release date after selling multiple kilos AND confessing to 14 murders all
Because he helped get Wayne Perry locked up, who wasn’t a drug dealer, just a straight killer.
That tells you Wayne had to have a body count ATLEAST in the 20s. Some people say over 50

U sure about that? That shyt seemed like bodies on bodies boarded up in that house from what I remember.

Yeah, but they were side characters the majority of the main characters were New Yorkers who did not even try to act like Baltimoreans.

Wanda spend the majority of the show sucking sick for money in her 5 second scenes

crack is a terrible drug
