Told from the points of view of both the Baltimore homicide and narcotics detectives and their targets, the series captures a universe in which the national war on drugs has become a permanent, self-sustaining bureaucracy, and distinctions between good and evil are routinely obliterated.

Incredible writing and world-building. Season 4 is perfect.
Undoubtedly you’ve heard the hype for this show. All I can tell you is that it lives up to every word. Please, do yourself a favor. Watch it
Literally one of the best shows ever made to this day
Incredible show. Season 2 is hard to get through on first watch but on rewatch is one of the best seasons. Season 5 kinda goes off the rails
Fantastic. Loved it all. The story was easy to follow but complex with all of the perspectives. Certainly worth watching. An all timer.
Institutional, individual dysfunction in the context of the war on drugs examined from all sides and justifications. A memorable masterpiece
Gives a more realistic view of criminal investigations in Baltimore. Slow but definitely give it a chance.
Watched this twice and it was even better the second time.
Quite simply the most detailed look into the interconnectivity of the different stands of society, and their failings
This show was fantastic from start to finish. It made me angry when the plot didn’t go where I wanted, but that’s what made it realistic
