If you like The Wire, check out Treme, or We Own This City. One is about survivors of Hurricane Katrina trying to get their lives back together. Has a lot of people from The Wire plus Steve Zahn and a couple other good actors. The other is about the corrupt PD Unit in Baltimore that was arrested for a number of things. Stars Jon Bernthal and the dude that plays Marlo. Both by the creator/writer of The Wire, both dope AF.

@Steven William why would you even post this bro.

I prefer The Sopranos to The Wire, but that’s just my preference because I’ve always had an affinity for mafia shit.

Yall gotta get down on White Lotus tho. Only two seasons out rn.

Struggled to get into Sopranos for some reason. Dunno why because that shit is right up my alley conceptually but meh.

Sopranos is fire . I liked Sons of Anarchy a lot too

Sons of Anarchy is top five. Breaking Bad too.

That’s cap. @Lay Doubt true detective season 1 is way better. Barely any shootouts

- - - Updated - - -

Breaking bad true detective. Hannibal… top 3

Then it’s mindhunter and my guilty pleasure show (criminal minds)

- - - Updated - - -

Real ones watched mind hunter and were never the same afterwards

The Wire
Breaking Bad
Sons of Anarchy
American Gods
Narcos

If you guys wanna watch a 10/10 show that was released last year and is getting a season 2… watch Severance on Apple TV

Breaking bad was great. I started to resent Walter more n more after every season. Jesse was my fav

Jesse was also my favorite. I love how they casually switched spots through the show. Walter starts as a teacher trying to make enough money for his family to thrive when he dies to a drug kingpin that doesn't give a shit about anything but what he's built. Jesse who starts out as a meth dealing loser to a broken man seeking redemption.

The chi started off good got lame

Oh shit. Atlanta belongs in top five too. I knew my list felt off.

It admittedly does start off a bit dull and is a slow burn. But when shit pops off then shit pops off.

SOA was cool but it gets a bit comical and farfetched at points. Shootouts that last forever in broad daylight with no police involvement. And I didn’t care for the season where they went overseas to Ireland.

I will say the scene where Opie got merked is one of the roughest parts of any show I’ve seen.

Ok this is a move in the right direction

As far as top five crime/drama shows for me, in no order it’s:

The Sopranos
Breaking Bad
The Wire
Ozark
Succession

Honorable mention to Dexter and Suits, but they fall off pretty hard starting in season 6 with Colin Hanks and season 8 when Mike leaves, respectively.

I like shows that know when to mail it in and wrap shit up, which I feel Ozark and Successuon are particularly good examples of.

I used to think the show was based on Mongols (the area I live in has a large group of them) but apparently it's loosely based on both Hells Angels and the Shakespeare play, Hamlet. Charlie Hunnams character is inspired by a young biker he met who wore sneakers instead of boots and no chaps. Ended up dying not long after they met. The realism of the show definitely gets lost in the last season or two but I thoroughly enjoy most of it.

Ozark loses me after the first season. Dunno why but it was hard to hang in there which sucks because I'm a huge Bateman fan.

I also hated the way Jax went out in the end. Felt it was corny and bullshit.

It was meant to be full circle / Hamlet shit. I was 50/50 on it. Liked it from a poetic standing. Hated it because he went from killing everyone to suicide.

Huh, I loved it.

The Rotten Tomatoes score for each season in order is 70%, 76%, 98%, and 85%.

So season three was definitely the best one, and 4 is better than the first two. It’s definitely worth sticking with imo.

Exactly. It felt off brand and out of character for him.

I'll definitely give it another go.

White Lotus could potentially crack my top 5 at some point, if it continues at this level of quality. Season 2 was super dope.

I've noticed most shows take a dive after season 2 or 3.
