I’ve finally started The Wire. 3 episodes in and it’s …. Ok. Tell me it gets better. It’s got Fred West and that talking mannequin Lance Reddick from Bosch in it so I’m pissed off already 

You think Sons of Anarchy is top drawer. Get to the end of The Wire and you’ll think that SoA is closer to Emmerdale. 
 

One of the best characters (later seasons) also had a big part in Bosch but he’ll always be Marlo Stanfield. You want it to be one way, but it’s the other way.

I really enjoyed SoA, was great entertainment. 
 

It’s several rows below The Wire though. 

[Carvalho Diablo]

Really enjoyed The Wire when I watched it all earlier this year. Nowhere near as great as many would have you believe but a quality 2nd tier series imo.

[Captain Turdseye]

The natural order…

 

Blue Peter, Power Rangers, PJ Masks, etc. For kids.  

Regular Show, Teen Titans Go, etc. Boss shows for kids. 
 

Hollyoaks, Eastenders, Loose Women, etc. For Tony. 
 

Four Part BBC/ITV dramas, The Chase, Friends, The Simpsons, etc. Easy to watch for everyone. 
 

Third Tier Shows - The Shield, Fargo, Line of Duty, Bojack Horseman South Park, etc. 
 

Second Tier Shows - True Detective, Game of Thrones, (ending fucked it) Stranger Things, Always Sunny, Boardwalk Empire, Peep Show, Rick & Morty, etc

 

Top Tier - The Wire, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Mr Inbetween, etc. 
 

 

Sons of Anarchy fits in somewhere between the third tier and the group below with The Chase in. I’m doing a disservice to The Simpsons actually. It should be above Jax Teller. SoA is in Prison Break territory.

It’s better second time around, Shep. No doubt about it.

Top Tier is The West Wing, The Wire and Sopranos. 

[Captain Turdseye]

BB, Better Call Saul and Mr Inbetween are easily the greatest TV shows of recent years. 
 

I haven’t got around to watching The West Wing yet and there’s others that are lauded as second tier shows on here that I haven’t seen. That’s why I left an ‘etc’ after every tier. So Tony can add Homes Under The Hanmer. 

[Captain Turdseye]

I left out Succession. That’s second tier, flirting with top tier depending on how it plays out.

Haha. I haven’t watched daytime television in years. I’ve taken to not switching the telly on until 6 or 7pm, so I miss new episodes of The Chase and Pointless.

 

My favourite programmes include: Antiques Roadshow, Countryfile, Coast, Long Lost Family, Fake or Fortune?, various stuff on BBC Four and Gogglebox.

Not watched any of these yet. 
 

We’ve just started The Sopranos as she’s never seen it, then I’ll have to get on these if you reckon they’re as good as The Wire and The Sopranos.

Storyville on BBC4, mate. My word. There has never been a bad one.

Comfortably right up there. I was late to Breaking Bad but was on it before the end and totally blown away. Then the prequel, Better Call Saul has toned down a bit of the action but the dialogue and drama has gone up another level. It’s immense. Final season is on the way soon.

Yeah, they’re great.

[Dr Nowt]

Never watched Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul. Been rooting around for something new to get into once I’ve rewatched Mr Inbetween series 3, so may dive into that.

[Arniepie]

Gomorrah,the wite,game of thrones are all essential viewing.

 

I found sons of anarchy and braking bad especially ti be massively over rated.

 

The leftovers and succession are also excellent.

Don’t give up on BB if it underwhelms you at first (particularly if you’re comparing to some of the reviews you may have seen/heard). It definitely gets better, much better.

 

In my opinion BCS is the better show. One of the best ever made. It’s different from BB but at the same time, very similar.

 

Enjoy.

[Elite]

Breaking Bad is immense, I've watched it through twice. Can be slow at times but the pay offs are spectacular.

 

Better Call Saul is fantastic as well, adds depth to some of the best characters from Breaking Bad and is a brilliant show in its own right.

 

I'd say the BB/BCS is my favourite fictional universe. It works incredibly well.

I enjoyed The Wire but it's not getting past The Sopranos, Gomorrah or Narcos, for me. Part of the problem could have been that because everyone raved about it i probably expected too much. I got to the end of Season 3 and never bothered with the last two.

Never got past the first series of Narcos. Always been meaning to go back but can’t be arsed sitting through series one again.

 

Haven’t had a drink since Sunday, you weapon. Was busy all day yesterday so it was late before I could sit and browse on here properly.

Better Call Saul would be right up your street, Ben. Doesn’t work unless you’ve watched BB first though.

Narcos is top tier for me, and Ozark is second tier.
