Those people were from the crack era and their murders were over a course of years they was also on a higher level than Chris and Snoop.
Chris alone caught 35 bodies, 11 on screen. That was what over the length of Baltimore PD's investigation? They had a whole rowhouse with bodies boarded up. They were basically mass murderers.

RIP Doughboy Roc
Chris - bug’s dad, old face Andre, little kev, grocery woman, New York dealers, Security Guard, LexU 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.
Snoop - Barksdale dealer, and lowkey idk if I’m blowed but I can’t think of who else she killed
Chris was the muscle who had everyone scared so it makes sense
U been to b more before? There’s helllla vacant cribs in that bytch even present day, makes sense they could hide bodies with those

The Wire >>> every season of Snowfall combined
It’s a good show but since the fourth season, it’s going down that hood soap opera vibe that Power universe is in
The Wire had in depth character development carefully crafted with thematic seasons that touched on crime, education, politics, policing and media. Each of these themes were touched on throughout the five seasons to paint the picture of the modern city plagued by poverty, violence and corruption. It’s a reflection of a society that still exists.
Snowfall did…. None of this. It’s an entertaining show for what it is but The Wire is like a literary masterpiece that requires multiple viewings where you’re still picking up on gems from the dialogue and action of each character. It truly is one of the greatest pieces of American art in any medium of all time.
Snoop also killed someone while schooling O-dog.
The sopranos and breaking bad is better to me. Even early seasons of the shield give it a run for its money. It’s a dated show that isn’t getting fresher S1 is not good. S2 is not good on first watch not to say BB S1 is all that but yeah there are better shows shyt even mad men is better but those are different genres.
We can’t help that it’s’ greatness makes everything look like trash. Good TV will do that

don't put snowfall with power ever. snowfall aint wire level, but it's a good 2-3 tiers above power...power is an acting and writing bootcamp with a green light to air on tvThe wire is Shakespeare
Snowfall and Power is lifetime movies compared to the wire.

Sopranos is the only show that can even come close to touching the wire
I enjoyed the sopranos but it was never as deep or entertaining, to me, as the wire. Breaking bad was fun but it’s like a meth version of power and snowfall, the type show where there’s always some new magical plot obstacle that comes after a problem is solved.
The shield had the skeleton of a show I might have loved, but it was like suns of anarchy. Cac fantasy crime porn where they get to be racist and tell everybody else what’s what to Irish rock music.
Like I know they both portray things that are grounded in reality but the way they were directed made it formulaic and bored me halfway through the first seasons. I also can’t really identify with the main characters.
The wire was the perfect balance of grounded yet subtly fun, for me. It just never gets old, and it’s like a time capsule of my high school years (the clothes, music, etc). Some of the dialog is randomly cringe worthy but it gets smoothed out. My favorite part is the non-stop layering of everything that allows me to pick some tiny thing and follow it into another season.
If I’m going to watch some street shyt (even though the wire is more than that), that feels new every time I watch it, it’s going to be the wire or Top Boy. Everything else I’ve watched was good for a one and done. The soprano’s had moments I can watch again, but trying to dive back in is a chore.
I still have to check out mad men. I keep hearing it’s a great watch.

I went into snowfall thinking it was going to stick close to Rick Ross. That shyt got cartoonish real fast and turned me off. I can see why people like it but it’s probably for people who enjoyed shows like Empire.
