And oh god, there’s so much stuff I hadn’t noticed the first time around, and a few foreshadows that send shivers down my spine. It’s truly an amazing show.
“The fuck did I do?”
I tried to get into this show but it was so boring. I did like 2 3 first episodes on S1.
S1 gets better if you stick it out. Stringer Bell is a great character. I was underwhelmed by TW, stopped watching 3/4 through S2. It had been over-hyped for me which is a shame because its obviously a good show.
Yeah it takes a few episodes to click and see how rich and true to life the stories are. Until you start picking up on the characters and the pacing it’s hard to get into. Not everyone’s cup of tea but I have yet to find a show as engrossing as the wire.
What ep/ss that it start clicking to you? I want to know how long I have to wait
I think I did episode 1 like twice then maybe made it to ep 3 then a year later started over and was hooked
“If Snotboogie always stole the money, why’d you let him play?”
“Got to. It’s America, man.”
This show perfectly does the job of getting you hooked in the first episode. Or even in the first few minutes.
What I find remarkable is how consistently good all the seasons are (with a slight dip in the final season, in my opinion).
I used argue with a friend about which is the best, and you could make a convincing argument for any of them, really.
I was always partial to the second season, personally.
