The Wire is the one I struggle with. Maybe that will be my summer series.


Homeland is pretty high on my list too but they only have had one season so they need a few more before I can put them in this company.

Here's my list (in order). I've seen every episode of these shows (except BB):

1. The Wire
2. Lost
3. Sopranos
4. 24
5. Entourage
6. Mad Men
7. Breaking Bad (stopped in season 2)

As for Mad Men I still watch but defintely not my favorite. A little too girly for me. But Don Draper and Roger Sterling are two of my favorite characters ever, they make the whole show worthwhile.

Matty my recommendation would be to save this show to watch with your wife. In that context you won't be disappointed.

Why did you stop BB?

I don't know, didn't really do it for me. Didn't love many of the characters and it was a little too depressing for me.

I can see that, it's dark and all of the characters are significantly flawed. It's worth sticking it out IMO, it just gets better each season.

The Wire probably the best written TV series ever. Yes, ever.
