Hbo's The Wire Is The Best Show Ever Made.

Nurse Jackie? Walking Dead? Seriously???

The Wire takes a big dump on most "good" shows today. I am a huge Walking Dead fan.....but that show isn't in the same ballpark. Characters are too weak.

GOT has a chance.....this season will have a big part on where that show is placed in talks.

If we are talking drama - yea The Wire is the best. I would say The X-Files could be around #1 - but the last few seasons were hit or miss.. Homeland and GoT might unseat it though. The Wire knew when to wrap up the series.

Arrested Development wins if we are talking all categories.

The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones are the best TV series ever. I do like the wire though, and would put it in my top 5.

The Wire is my #1. Game of Thrones is in my Top 5 but TWD lost my interest halfway through season 2.

    • Meh… I wish there was a network that has all sports.  This thing will fail.
    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
