Hot take: season 5 is actually fine

One of the few dramas that is worth re-watching. Watched it four times (first time was when season 5 was airing) and my perspective changes each time and I notice so many new things.

That whole scene with Snoop buying the nail gun is incredible.

i love the way it has aged but not dated ie it still feels current… but then folk are using pagers

feels almost like a recently made period show

Aye that’s the first scene that really blew my mind when I first watched it.

Yeah actually, I didn’t mind 5 too much. I liked the arc with Bubbles and the younger reporter.

5 is better than 1

We not got any contrarians for this? No fun if everyone is just praising it.

By far and away my favourite TV series of all time. Flawless. Even Aidan Gillen can’t spoil it.

Going to do a 4th rewatch soon with the TV who’s never seen it.

Think this is my favourite scene, one of them anyway.

Season 5 is fine. It’s all great though.

FYI The House I Live In, a documentary which David Simon had a hand in, is really fucking good.

Love that they got Isiah Whitlock Jr. to cameo in Black Klansman just long enough to go “Sheeeeeeeeeit”
