The Wire is even more detailed.Originally Posted by CripwalkinK
There has never been a more detailed show than Breaking Bad. Ever. I'm planning on starting The Wire very soon but most people I know have told me they preferred BB over The Wire.

^^^Which is one of the reasons The Wire is better. The Wire had everything: sex, violence, politics, unions, schools, puberty, jail, co-ops, etcetera etcetera. It not only juggled more topics (well), it juggled a lot of characters well. You have people in really life who ride or die with some of the characters; Weebay, Stringer, Prop Joe, Cheese, Marlo and Avon. Not to mention a huge percentage of what happened in the show is actually true. Breaking Bad is an awesome show, but it's not better than The Wire.Originally Posted by RaWeX05
The Wire had 5 seasons and each one was great. What made me like The Wire so much was that it had a "real" factor to it. Each season brought a different aspect of life of Baltimore which made it interesting for me to watch.
I disagree with that a bit, nobody can tell me they predicted what happened at the end of Season 2 or even Season 3 for that matter. Season 4 was a bit easier to guess/predict but even then, people always pulled theories out of their @%%#* and made them seem plausible and the show never went in those directons haha.Originally Posted by dro 44
You shouldn't post in here if you haven't seen both....
That being said, "The Wire" offers its viewers an overall glimpse in "that life". May it be street or politics. I feel "The Wire" covers so many more topics than "Breaking Bad". Although, BB has really captivated me with the way the characters feed off one another. BB was cast perfectly. The Wire gave us many characters, but the development was lacking because of the prolific amount of actors. As far as suspense at the end of episodes, BB> The Wire
I just enjoyed "The Wire" a bit more because of all the topics that were covered. I love the seasons with the Barksdale crew, but season 2 isn't slacking because the shipyard had so many intricacies. The attention to detail puts the "The Wire"> Breaking Bad storyline wise. BB seems kind of easy to predict, because there are only a few options when the story is presented. "The Wire" had me with the Wee-bay shocked gif on numerous occasions.
Summed up...The Wire> Breaking Bad in a decision. Both great shows...I like the way David Simon presented his story a little better.
so you're italian then?Originally Posted by copped
can everyone who says The Wire is better than Breaking Bad post their race also? i feel 90% of black people who have watched both series will side with The Wire because they relate to it more (for whatever reason)....thus making this question silly...its all relative, if anyone can objectively critique both and still say one way or another, then fair enough.
for me:
sopranos> breaking bad> the wire
that is coming from someone who has watched all three series two times over. i find myself watching re-runs of sopranos more than the other two. the last season of The Wire turned me off.

I've watched both the Wire and Sopranos entire series' probably 4x each. My top 2 shows of all-time. But I still put the Wire ahead of Sopranos.Originally Posted by copped

all are great shows. but there was at least 1.5 seasons where sopranos sucked monkey balls. the wire final episode was wack (just like the sopranos), but all of the seasons were great. and there were seasons on the wire that weren't about black people ya know!Originally Posted by copped
