Does it really need to be said though? The Sopranos only had one weak season and the ending. GoT was good all the way until s6, s7 weak, the ending trash. Still love the show though. The Wire for all the hype that show has it honestly does not live up to it. The only thing that makes it so well loved is because it is still relevant to society and police to this day. The actual story is basically follow police around to catch the bad guy like any other cop show. The Wire is a 5/10. Now I still have 6 more episodes in S5 so unless it blows me away it’s not looking all that great. Then again everyone likes different things.

What was so great about S4? Basically just shows how the next gen gets caught up in that life or focus on school and try to do better.

Sopranos, Succession, GoT, Band of Brothers, just to name a few. Still have some other shows on my list that I have yet to watch.
The Wire was good up to season 3, season 4 kinda boring but picked up towards the end, and S5 so far it’s interesting.

Lol yeah that was me. Took me 3 times to try to watch season 1. I just sat down one day and finally started really watching it and paying attention. It got good but it’s not imo the greatest series on HBO.

I’m currently on the last season of the series and honestly I don’t know why this show is regarded so highly. I think it’s good but there’s other shows on HBO that are better. Maybe it also has to do with when the series came out that helped it out since it was a weekly release and gave people time to really let it sink in but watching the series nonstop is kinda boring to me.

How am I telling you why you like it? I was just expressing my opinion about the show. I thought we were just having a discussion about what I said originally and then what you responded. There is nothing wrong with me not liking it just like how there is nothing wrong with you liking it. At the end of the day we can agree on watching whatever we like because we like it. Cheers.
