Some TV historians (whatever that is) have often put The Wire or The Sopranos as best tv show ever. My view is, at its best, a specific episode here or there, pretty much nothing beats The Sopranos but I thought The Wire was the most consistently good tv show ever. And what makes it probably the best is that almost any show that politicizes is not good.
They tackled, drug addiction, the education system, the local government, the press and made it entertaining. They were able to 'preach' about the bad of those institutions and make it extremely entertaining which is almost impossible.
