And oh god, there’s so much stuff I hadn’t noticed the first time around, and a few foreshadows that send shivers down my spine. It’s truly an amazing show.

“The fuck did I do?”

      Yeah it takes a few episodes to click and see how rich and true to life the stories are. Until you start picking up on the characters and the pacing it’s hard to get into. Not everyone’s cup of tea but I have yet to find a show as engrossing as the wire.

      S1 gets better if you stick it out. Stringer Bell is a great character. I was underwhelmed by TW, stopped watching 3/4 through S2. It had been over-hyped for me which is a shame because its obviously a good show.
