Seems nearly all the negative reviews are either season one or season five, with the five reviews aging fine because they were negative in how this season did a disservice to The Wire itself and its legacy, was unrealistic and poorly plotted with the newspaper storyline just being bad which... is all true.

Wrong season five is great. Topic locked.

also he lets the mayor burn for the drugs legal stuff only after finding out what it was about himself and physicaly going there and experiencing it. Then uses it as a cudgel against the mayor. He works to purposefully split the vote to get himself elected. He's a political animal through and through.

Yep. He's a pure liberal, he has some real beliefs and occasionally by accident lets them out (his rant about protecting the homeless, for instance) but is, from day one, perfectly happy to compromise them if it gets him more power. And he will always justify it because obviously he'll be able to truly help later. Destroy schools now but he'll totally save them once he's governor lol. It's a fantastic portrayal of real politicians

"We used to build poo poo in this country" must be number 1 because everything else derives from that.

Basically everything Frank says is ftw
