I dang near watch it 2-3 times a year. If you ever want to see if you can watch it try The Corner first. Its proto "The Wire" and is super short, but is kind of more tragic. It has a lot of the same cast too but in super different roles. The Wire had more budget and clearer vision of story.
What are you thoughts on We Own This City?
I liked it. It's much narrower in scope than the wire but it's more explicitly acab. The lawyers in the show are frustrating because of how lib they are despite being on the right side of the gun trace task force, but I suspect that's true to life for the type of people that go into that type of law. I thought the last episode was a real payoff compared to others. I also thought the one lawyer's speech about passing the torch was compelling.
The actors that play the cops are really good. Jon bernthal is perfect as the supreme punisher chud. He's got a great fascist, self serving charisma.
