The Wire - GeraldRice - 03-01-2010

I have the entire 3rd season on hold at the library. Someone is ahead of me and someone else already has them checked out.
I'm just going to have to settle for Breaking Bad. I do have Law Abiding Citizen waiting for me, though.

You have really good taste in tv when you mention the wire and Breaking Bad in the same thread. :beer:

I've like the main actor since Malcom in the Middle. It is an interesting concept. How far outside the law would you go to save your own life?

I would definitely recommend it. It is a very good show, and somewhat of a different concept.

I'll give it a whirl. I'm about to finish Season 3 of Battlestar Galactica and I need a break from it before I jump into the final season. Please tell me its better than Burn Notice or Fringe, two shows that have gotten a lot of positive reviews here that I found fairly unwatchable.

I need to start Battlestar Galactica here soon. After Doctor Who which I'm currently addicted to. Burn Notice I couldn't stand, I watched about 3 episodes of it and stopped. Fringe I like but I really can only get into the episodes that deal heavily with the main story of the series. Breaking Bad is without a doubt better then both of those shows.

That is good to hear; my library has season 1 available so its next as I'm on a long waiting list for Mad Men. Battlestar Galactica is certainly worthy but I've watched seasons 2 and 3 since January and I'm a bit burned out on it. Be sure to watch the mini-series first.

I'm going to start BSG. I just saw the mini-series a week ago. I'd forgotten that I'd already watched it several years ago, but just as well, I'm re-upped.
I made a reminder for myself to request Mad Men in 2 weeks. Hopefully I'm done with The Wire and BSG by then.

You'll have to watch with every spare moment if you hope to accomplish that-that's a lot of episodes in two weeks.
