I get why people love The Wire. It's realistic. It has interesting characters, and It has very good writing. The only problem is it's severely overrated. I had a hard time getting through the first season, and finally had to stop watching after the first episode of season 2. I even tried to watch season 4 after reading it was a lot of people's favorite season,but the show just never really grabbed my attention.
I would compare it to when Bret Easton Ellis said Breaking Bad was the most overrated television show in the history of television. I disagree with him, and am a big fan of Breaking Bad, but I compare his feeling toward Breaking Bad,with my feelings towards the Wire.
In conclusion,I think the Wire is a good,but not great show, and that it should definitely not be considered one of the greatest shows of all time.
rating 7.3
