I'm calm. Just don't get the dickish response from Mickey followed by Skitch with his new account taking a shot after a good explanation. I guess I'll just have to watch and hope I can be allowed in the club.
Relax, risingtides was just trying to address your point, and perhaps could have done so in a more constructive way. Apologies.

Stop talking in the third person. In fact, just stop using this account.

The Wire is so good that it makes other tv shows hard to watch. Like I watched Oz after The Wire, which is a great show, but it was actually SHIT in comparison.
The Wire is so good it makes everything else bad.
The bold part is pretty much how it went down for me too.
I don't agree with the rest though. I just simply don't compare The Wire to anything else, so I still enjoy a lot of other TV shows.
Mickey really nailed it here:
"First and foremost, the Wire transcends "entertainment" in a lot of ways. Not only are the countless political statements made throughout the show, I dont know of a show that has had a more profound impact on how I view things in the real world. I dont look at police the same way. I dont look at the "POLICE WITH A RECORD SETTING XXXXX POUNDS OF COCAINE RECOVERED" stories with any optimism. It shows, in relatively great detail a world NONE of us know.. and it's in every one of our cities. We drive through it, and past it to go to a concert or a baseball game. And that's just the overall arc.. each season takes an in depth look at a different element of society, and the "seedy underbelly" that we either dont know about or try to ignore."
I would argue that if you don't like Ziggy, then you really don't get this show.

Ziggy works because you can feel incredibly sad for him without him being a sympathetic character, if that makes any sense. I.e., whenever he makes a mistake I want to say out loud: "Oh, come on Ziggy, don't do it..." but when he does it you just throw your arms up in the air instead of wringing them and worrying about him. He's just a kid, but he's not a kid in the sense of Season 4's kids being kids, if ya know what I mean.
Whenever I watch s2 I always get sad during the last couple episodes, knowing it's about to end. It's not just for the port stuff either, I love the Stringer branching out on his own angle as well.
