mcnulty was pretty much a saint until season 5. freamon too.

what's really surprising is how few truly shitty/corrupt cops there are. most of them turn bent by the system

I say that with little to no hyperbole

Still nothing compared to the Wire but you can make a case compared to the Sopranos.

The show gets better as it moves on.

You know how in Breaking Bad, Jesse's friends were just kind of retarded and did shit for no good reason?...now imagine if some fruitcake director very seriously focused half or more of the show on them, but made it somber and dramatic with absolutely no sense of humor and tried to make them look deep.

Edit...but youre right. BCS took a fun light hearted character from BB and did what I described in the second paragraph.

watch the sopranos

other than that, from what i saw, it's a well-made show, albeit held down by the overwhelming shitlib nature of entertainment media w.r.t. the subject matter.

full disclosure, i'm not really a fan of television as medium.

People are calling it lib and bashing it on that basis. It is guided by lib principles -- but they tend to be the benevolent old-timey lib ideas. What it doesn't seem to have is the need to forcefeed the new type of SJW libism. No real WOMYN POWER!! or WHITE MALES ARE ALL EVIL!!

that said, theres a huge population of hipster white people that like the wire because they think it makes them cool. they're contemptible.
