    First, let me say :golfclap:

    Easily the best TV series I've ever watched. Definitely lived up to TMB hype.

    But now I'm all :tebow: because I don't have anything to look forward to anymore

    What do I watch now?

    It does suck when you first finish The Wire. I tried to watch Mad Men and got through 1.5 seasons before 1, getting bored and 2, couldn't find anymore episodes online. I got through season 1 of the Sopranos but couldn't find anymore episodes either. Treme is honestly not doing a ton for me although I haven't seen the last 2 episodes yet

    Carcetti is a criminally underrated character. Dude was a political beast. Found some ambition and set the whole city on fire trying to build his rep to make a run for mayor, then gave the city 2 fingers as soon as he could to make a run at the capitol while everything stayed as crappy as it was before

    Season 5 wasn't that bad, although the serial killer thing was kind of week. I equate season 5 to an aftershock of season 4. Season 4 was the big one, and while you still felt season 5, it didn't have the same impact.

    Season 5 was the worst of the series. And before anyone says it, Season 2 was a lot better than anyone realizes first go around. Everyone dislikes it because it was the first time it spent a lot of time away from the pits and in the ghetto of Baltimore

    obviously season 4 was the GOAT season of any show ever, so we expected so much more out of 5.
