Amen to that.

I just seen this form topic and I had to come here with a Giant sized

YES!!!!!

Well, that's not how you spell Community.

Dunno. Never really could get into The Wire or Breaking Bad. I tried though. My favorite TV series are...

Doctor Who, Spartacus, The Walking Dead, Sherlock, Firefly, Merlin. I'd say Prison Break too, but I only liked the first season.

Its a very well done series. I have to say. Very intelligent TV. So Sad is over and never to be again

Love the series watch it once a year atleast but i have to say i hated the last season they coulda ended it better

might be ye, never seen such a well done serie. Its like an eternal epic film.

OK FINE I STARTED WATCHING IT! Just finished episode one. Police procedurals aren't usually my thing, but people talk so much about this I'll give it a watch.

I've heard great things about the Wire but I haven't gotten around to watching it just yet. embarassed

It was a great show. Certainly one I'd recommend to people. You should check out "Oz" as well.

there are lots of better tv series
best shows imho: the shield - dexter - sopranos

P.S. i cant understand the hype about firefly and breaking bad - i was falling asleep almost everytime i watched an episode

Never seen The Wire. Loving Breaking Bad (hurry up, last season!). Fiancee and I just finished watching Battlestar Galactica - I'm sad that it's over. Still waiting on the next set of Sherlocks too. Not filming 'til March. =(

I haven't seen the wire, my current favs are

1. Fringe (up to date)
2. Breaking Bad (up to date)
3. Dexter (didnt start watching the latest season)
4. Suits (1.5 seasons behind)

The Wire is in my Backlog with Game of Thrones

Yes.
