Poll Goat TV Show Tournament (Qtr Finals): The Wire vs The Sopranos

[Norrin_Radd]

I said I was gonna vote against the Wire every round I guess I lied. Fuck Tony!
It should’ve been The Dark Knight vs The Wire

2 of the 5 seasons of the wire are straight ass, y'all talk about how bad the ending of The Sopranos was but The Wire was worse

I’d say 1/2 of season 5. Season 2 is great despite the bandwagon wave of shitting on it.

Season 5 was a bit difficult to care about the newspaper but they succeeded for me. Omar vs Marlo was nice.

I tried The Wire too late, it felt mad outdated (the tech etc) so I gave up... Whereas The Sopranos I was watching pretty much at (or just after its peak) and was GOAT series for me...

Omar and marlo never had a scene together in season 5 which was also an issue

Wouldn’t make sense though. They were too smart for that

 

[Chi-Town B]

Omar taking out low level no name mf'ers wasn't what viewers wanted to see

 

[PhenomTheMac]

Yeah, nah.

 

[Chi-Town B]

Yeah, nah.

Even Marlo had an issue of not seeing Omar in the streets

The wire wasn’t known to cater to the audience, like at all

Lol at already getting accounts with no damn posts to vote

Good one of these gotta lose

The Wire crushing the Sopranos right now.

 

[LexDiamond1995]

This is the main character

Eh I don't agree with this take.

Who was the main character in GOT?? Jon Snow or Danerys??

The Wire was an ensemble. That's why it was so good

Bunk, Marlo, Lester Freamon, Avon, Omar, String were all main characters

but yes I do wish there was 1 more Omar vs Chris and Snoop showdown or Omar v. Marlo but it is what it is

 

[Goldie]

I think he’s basing it on ‘on screen time’ and there’s not a close 2nd.

I don't think there was 1 main character. The book was point of views from multiple characters and the show did a great job of displaying multiple viewpoints

 

[Chi-Town B]

The whole show was basically McNulty scheming to get his way to bring down these drug dealers and murderers, everyone else was a pawn for him to use. McNulty was the central character, nothing pops off without him

The creator is an ex detective who dealt with politics

 

[Chicity]

Sopranos was mid af

I'm not sure what season I stopped watching but I stopped paying attention very early on

Man wrap this shit up.

Tony going out sad like his final season.
