I love Breaking Bad but from what I hear The Wire is way better.

I hope it's better than BB because I want something good to watch.

what you hear is bullshit
The wire is quite boring, but its apologists will say retarded shit about how 'muh realism' being 2 deep 4 you.
It has very weak seasons and a lot of times the dialogue seems forced and badly written.
The Sopranos is and forever will be the superior show.
>>
Sopranos>Breaking Bad>Mad Men>The Wire

Definitive ranking.

>Mad Men over The Wire

you a funny guy

The Wire was written by novelists and, as stated by its creator, is "a treatise on modern America."

Breaking Bad is a meme show written by a failed X-Files writer.

The Wire is a dissertation on the failings of contemporary America from top to bottom. Breaking Bad is popcorn entertainment. Both are good, but one has much higher aims, which it totally achieves.

>>63068062
>Sopranos>Breaking Bad>Mad Men>The Wire

Both are lame social justice bullshit with zero aesthetic and formal personality. The Wire was written by a fucking journalist lmao.

The Wire isn't boring. Not in the slightest.

If that's the way you judge tv shows then you should kill yourself

>>63068135
S4 really isn't, I thought it was a lot worse than S1 or 2.

Also you can just watch the documentary that Chase made/produced to get what The Wire took dozens of hours to portray.
>>
>>63068135
Watch it a second time. You'll pick up on so much more. It's a very nuanced show. As Freeman says, "All the pieces matter."

If there's any show that changes from first watch to second, it's The Wire. At first it seems dialogue heavy, but that's only because there are political maneuvers happening all over the place, from the gangs to the cops to the actual politicians.

Whoa man, that's harsh

>>63069647

My nigga. But I'd put Oz in front of True Detective and The Wire but I haven't seen The Shield.

>>63069770
mad men isnt there because its quality reflect its viewers, like you for example.
>>
Every time I attempt to watch The Wire, I fall asleep during the pilot.
>>
>>63069647
I like the shield but the wire achieves so much more than just another cop show
>>
>>63069647
I like almost all of these shows but come the fuck on bro

>the shield
formulaic af and the later seaons are mostly crap
>true detective
season 2 is utter garbage
>oz
first couple seasons are god tier but the second half is unwatchable and it aged like milk
>better call saul

Remember, the more boring something is, the better it is
>>
>>63070871

obviously this isn't true but it honestly feels like it sometimes

movies I watched when I was like 14 and thought were "boring" are suddenly incredible now that I'm older, and the more entertaining films I liked at the time have become shit
>>
The Sopranos > The Wire > Girls > Oz > Breaking Bad > Bored to Death > Twin Peaks >>>>>>> irrelevant and bad stuff like the recent movie spinoff series
>>
>>63068304
Breaking Bad is a gokd example
