Watched The Wire when it first aired, and again a couple years ago. I am sure that you noticed that the drug counselor was Steve Earle? And they used his music at a few critical moments, like S02 finale. And he sang S05 theme song.

Omar was my favorite character of all though.

We tried The Wire a bunch of times over the years and just couldn't get past the first episide. It was annoying to hear everyone saying what a great show it was but not being able to get into it. Well, we tried it again the weekend before last and stuck with it long enough for it to really click this time around. Now we have 4+ seasons of TV lined up and we haven't quite finished S1 yet.

Watched episode 9 of MobLand last night. Was surprised at the ending. Looking forward to the final episode of season 1. Hope there will be another season or two.

I tried, but it wasn't showing available yet. I watched 1-8 no problem. Hopefully it will be there tonight.

New episodes are supposed to be available on Sunday nights, or is that only over here?

I swear I watched all the others on Monday nights. I couldn't get it yesterday. I watch it from On Demand.

I have the Paramount + with Showtime on my cable. Not the Paramount streaming. When I first looked for both Landman and Mobland when they originally aired, they weren't available for me. I waited a while and was finally able to get them. Maybe it's a nonsense delay to try and get you to do the subscription too? I pay $300/month for cable for all the channels and I still can't watch what I want. What a scam.

You should be able to log into streaming app with cable credentials. It is always available on app sooner in the day in Sunday. Usually shows up on YouTube TV when it “airs” which is usually Sunday night but noticed it appeared Monday this week, but we watched it Sunday afternoon using the app.

I believe I read it has already been renewed for Season 2, which is great.

I spoke too soon. Just searched for it and found most sites saying "not official yet" but it has been very successful and Tom Hardy is interested in returning for another season, so hopefully they get it done.

So it’s a good possibility.

We had the same issue, couldn't get through the first episode. I barely remember why but I think something about the pacing and just how dated it seemed. It's like I was never able to get into the original Star Trek even though I've watched and liked every other series starting with next gen.

Recently started Andor since I heard it was one of the few good Star Wars things left. We have free Disney+ through something and honestly never use it. Season 1 has been decent. Will watch season 2.

In between still watching Homeland... I think we finished up to season 5 maybe... I believe we still have a couple left, but I feel it's starting to go downhill.

It did get dicey for a while but if I remember correctly, the last season(s) were pretty good. Homeland blew my mind. Great show. She was a sick bitch!

Four Seasons was good on Netflix.

Now the wife and I are watching "Your Friends & Neighbors" on Apple TV. Starring John Hamm. Pretty good show. Nothing out there we like and have been striking out on some tv shows recently and came across this show a few days ago and really enjoy it.

June 4th, a golf comedy starring Owen Wilson called "Sticks" looks hilarious on Apple TV. So I can't wait to watch that.

Feel the same, I dunno, couldn't get into it, maybe just too many cop shows for me. Deadwood is similar but I might give that another try later. There are a few other classics that I'm sure I've missed and everyone is raving about them as well: for example, Twin Peaks, I tried literally over 3 times, couldn't get into it at all.

I put Justified and The Shield over The Wire as I don't think the latter is as great as I've heard people make it out to be. Not a bad show, though, and it does have a few good characters and moments. It did drag for several episodes (for me) before it started kicking in.

Currently on S5 of Formula 1: Drive to Survive. Wifey is enjoying it, too.
