It gives me chills when I watch it now. It's going to be in the pantheon of classics. It's weird that it's "past" now having watched it unfold, but it was so superb that it will surely be remembered as the GOAT show.

This is why people think you are a dumb poster. Lots of shitlibs love to say "oh, yeah, that or The Wire," but season five was such a flaming heap of shit that they don't belong in the same conversation.

The Biter subplot?! They clearly just ran out of material and wanted the cash.

The Wire was great - I loved it, I rewatched it, I can quote entire scenes from it - but it's aged really poorly.

part of it is that it is significantly more plot-driven than the sopranos. a large portion of the fun of the wire is wondering what's going to happen and how a situation gets resolved. this is obviously not as satisfying upon rewatch. meanwhile, the painstakingly well-considered characters in the sopranos have layers of complexity that only become apparent upon multiple viewings.

because if youre white you dont get as high of a return on social capital for telling other white people that you watch the wire as you could in the past--returns are basically negative now

Because its message is fairly obvious now to most educated people. We now know that drug kingpins don't travel with stacks of cocaine or an arsenal of guns and don't do "drug deals" where there's drugs in the room like some dumb action movie. Cops are not always the most enterprising and diligent people as they were often portrayed. Institutional rot can be found everywhere. The show was legendary for an incredibly realistic portrayal of police work, organized crime, and city politics. At the time the message was still fresh.

James was a genius. Anyone who saw him even in the smallest of his performances knows that. He is one of the greatest actors of this or any time. A great deal of that genius resided in those sad eyes. I remember telling him many times, 'You don't get it. You're like Mozart.' There would be silence at the other end of the phone," Chase recalled.
