The Wire
I think you might've seen it already, but if not, now go and watch Luther.
those sensors don't always work anyways, the products have to have some sort of tag, and that was a small business and the man was more than happy being handed a large wad of cash even though he was confused.
I have not seen it! Is our man Idris in that?

Hated Luther.
I didn’t take that to be a small business. I figured it was a Home Depot type store.
Yes.

So, all you folks who've written things that make The Wire sound like the best thing ever broadcast need to step up and discuss with me now that I'm finished with the show. What elements make this such a great show for you? I am not quite settled on how well I loved it, or for what reasons, but love it I did.

I do know though that if there’s even a whiff of something not being believable or something being played for cheap laughs, for example, I am out of there.
So what will you watch next?
I’m not one for analyzing in this way. For me, it’s an emotional thing. Either I love it (like The Sopranos) or I hate it (like Dexter).

Speaking of bandwagons, I've jumped on the Inventing Anna train (Netflix). Not feeling the love for Julia Garner in the secondar lead, though. Whatever accent she is trying to pull off is either really horrible... or the actual Anna's accent was equally horrible. It's very distracting.

Wasn’t bothered so much by the accent. Delvey was Russian-born, was moved to Germany & later spoke very good English. This would result in a mish-mash of an accent I would imagine.
Soooo disappointing as I’ve posted elsewhere here. Loved Delvey’s true life story & a huge fan of Garner … but to make the reporter the focus right out of the gate made no sense at all. And was profoundly uninteresting.

I took five years of German in school, and none of what she said sounded like a German accent to me. Or Russian. But perhaps I just started out of the gate a little annoyed and now can't unfeel that way.
I’ve put this annoying show behind me & moved right along.

One more episode and I'll be able to do the same thing. Onward and upward! (This was NOT a good show to follow up with after The Wire. Let's just leave it at that.)
Can’t remember if I asked this already. Have you seen The Tinder Swindler on Netflix? Fascinating true story. Loved it.

No! But Netflix is feeding me promos for that one now. So that might be my next one up!

OK, I have just started binging this show after hearing so many things about it for years. I found the show a little confusing at first. The canvas is pretty big and I had a hard time keeping up with the characters, but I was intrigued enough to get through the first season. I am now six episodes into season two and it feels like a completely different show. Season 1 was all about the cops and the drug dealers and even though I still don't know all of the characters' names, I had a grasp on what was going on, but season two has me totally confused. How did we go from cops vs drug deals to dead hookers on cargo ships? Why did McNulty get transferred out of the squad? And why is the squad in the basement and what do they have to do to get out?

Then could you please explain it to me? I am not feeling it at all.
