SPOILERS - The Wire - SPOILERS, bitches

Just finished the entire series, finally.

Here's how I personally rank the seasons: 2, 4, 1, 5, 3


Omar's exit was pretty weak. It held with how realistic the show was, but come on.

I still don't believe it was a better show than The Sopranos, but it's not far behind. Fantastic.

How you rank five above anything else is beyond me. In fact I disagree with every ranking, but that is the only one that I don't understand at all.

The journalism aspect bored the fuck out of me, but watching Jimmy lose his mind was fantastic. Maybe it has to do with him not being around much for season four.

Seasons four and two are nearly a tie, but I enjoyed the shipping aspect a tad more than I did the school system.

Season three below season five?

This ****** too ignorant to have the fucking floor.

McNulty, Sen. Davis and Marlo (especially the rant he went on while in jail). Sorry, boys.

Season 4's focus on the kids, the schools and the politics puts it head and shoulders above the rest. Season 2 isn't bad by any means, but the docks? The fucking docks? Get to fuck.

You Wire fans are awfully hostile.

Awfully damn hostile.

Out of curiosity, what gave Sopranos the edge over The Wire for you?

There really isn't one thing. The writing and acting are about equal, the characters are all interesting, etc. I think I just enjoyed The Sopranos a bit more.
