freebooter posted:I watched it for the first time last year and now I'm watching it again because my girlfriend's never seen it, and I'm interested to see if my line-up changes. As it stands I'd rank the seasons (from best to least) as 3 > 1 > 2 > 4 > 5. With a fairly solid line between 2 and 4; I never really warmed to the last two seasons. I mean, they were great, better than 99% of any other TV, but they didn't quite reach the platinum standard of the first three seasons. To each their own, but 4 was the probably the best season of anything I've ever seen. No show or movie since has gotten such an emotional reaction out of me.

algebra testes posted:Can I be honest? I dont understand how David "the System is broken" Simon isnt all for the system is broken candidate. I mean there's also a theme of every who tries to break away from/radically change the system getting hosed even worse than the people who work within it, by the people who work within it - the co-op, Hamsterdam, Randy, McNulty in general, etc. I love the Wire, but it never presents answers, just a hopeless situation. I don't feel the show every made the point that 'We must abolish the system and start again', rather the point 'The system is the system, and if you don't play by the rules, those invested in maintaining the system will grind you into dust to maintain the status quo' e; The only answers and happy endings it presents are Bubbles and Namond (Wee-bay's kid? I forget his name) lucking into the circumstances that lead to them pulling their lives out of the shitter.
