I was super underwhelmed by the pilot of The Wire. But that may have been because of exceptional expectations coupled with having started it so late after its end and the prestige TV revolution.

I'll definitely give it another shot eventually. The cast is too good not to try again.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

You are incorrect, sir. Your perception is inconsistent with reality.

Succession is really good. The first few episodes are a bit inconsistent, but then it soars.
