      I totally agree!! In fact, season 2 is the best season of the show in my opinion because it got away from the street life and showed how influential politics and abuse of power by law enforcement are to the plight of the "hood". Season 5 is also underappreciated.

    I really love how he mentions that it felt like it was "low production value". And The Wire is, absolutely. And I think that is one of the strenghts of the show tbh. It feels so gritty, dirty and real because of the writing and acting, but also because of the low production value. It isn't made up and polished, looks-wise, as other shows. And I think that is a massive benefit in this case.

      I respectfully disagree. Season 4 my guy. Season 4. Not only was that the best season of the show, imo it’s arguably the best season of any show in history as far as dramas go. The storytelling, character development, and social commentary was at its peak. I’d rank the rest of the seasons as follows: 3, 1, 2 & 5. I could possibly see 1 & 2 swapped but even that’d be a hard sell for me. I do agree that 2 was highly underrated though.

      I don't know how old you are, but I seem to recall that HBO has been HUGE for a very long time, waaaay before The Wire. It was the place to watch all the biggest movies, all the comedians wanted HBO specials, World Championship Boxing was where all the legends of boxing fought, etc.....
