I see The Deuce a bit as a darker Tréme (which I love too)

In my experience (edit: not mine personally but everything Ive read about it), usually the most violent cops are the ones working with the bad guys So Herc and Carver

I prefer binge too but I binge like 2, 3 episodes per day at most And I also have no problem waiting for something to finish airing to watch like I want, I have a long queue of things to watch anyway

Also, I remember Ziggy and his cousin being pretty racist

Eason the Fifth posted:Also House of Cards (though I'd argue it's great through Season 2), and The Crown, and Boardwalk Empire. Prestige TV overstays its welcome unless it's brave enough or smart enough to improve on the premise every season, like The Wire and Breaking Bad. Boardwalk Empire is amazing up to the end of season 2, than it becomes just good (though the last season might be a little bellow)

Pirate Radar posted:For more of this, and ripped directly from the headlines, you can check out We Own This City, the more recent miniseries from a lot of the same creatives and actors. It’s about a real-life bunch of dirtbag Baltimore detectives. Just rewatched recently. Is like The Wire compressed except everyone is bad and even the ones who aren’t really all that bad are already compromised anyway. Is dire as gently caress And Jon Bernthal is fantastic through the whole thing, he is just perfect for the part. Also I watched walking dead recently and made think Jenkings is probably kinda like Shane was in his pre apocalypse days

The way I remember, Stringer wanted to be a true capitalist, a powerful and respectful business man. He wanted to ascend to the real upper classes While Marlo, he above all wanted to be feared and respected, seen as a crime king, the most badass of all ever And Avon, he was kinda happy with what he already had and was, and just wanted to make is money and have his fun, and he at least had cared the community a bit and respected his rivals

BiggerBoat posted:This was largely my read on things also. Yeah Avon is my favorite cause he is the most sensible of them 3 He knows Stringer "serious business" innovations wont work and, irrc, is also skeptical of Stringer's dealings with Clay Davis And unlike Marlo, he understands he needs stability and some community goodwill to operate, and for keeping that brutality and terror alone are not enough (even though he can be brutal too) Elias_Maluco fucked around with this message at 13:07 on Feb 23, 2024 |

Yeah, in We own this City they also talk about how in the homicide department is still possible to do real police work, as opposed to the endless corrupt brutal bullshit of the war in drugs
