Let me talk to you about the wire and how it is the perfect series. (Even when it got squirely in season 5)
The deconstruction of the failure of every institution in the city of Baltimore.
How good people can get lost in systems. How they can attempt to fight. How the systems inevitably prevail.
Awesome series but niche? It's an HBO series that's on pretty much every list of the best series of all time. I'd hardly call that niche.
Why did Season 5 fall off a bit? Was there a change in writers/producers?
Oh, it's great. Charlie Brooker (Black Mirror's creator) called it the best show of all time, with honorable mentions to Deadwood and The Shield (which I didn't rate much)
