Thoughts on We Own This City
Going through a little The Wire withdrawal after watching the entire series. I've heard We Own This City is the same vibe and somewhat of a sequel of sorts to the Wire... just curious what you all think of this series and if it holds a candle to the Wire?

Two very different shows.. it’s definitely not a sequel of the wire, they don’t really have anything to do with each other, other than them both taking place in Baltimore.. I didn’t read the whole thread so not sure if it’s been mentioned, but we own this city is a true story.. it’s definitely worth watching but also not in the best show ever tier
