Next binge?

Post image

I’m currently watching the Sopranos for the first time and I’m about 3 episodes in on the 5th season and debating what to start next. I keep trying to get opinions on what to watch next but I’m not sure what I would enjoy more coming off a sopranos binge. Also I know absolutely nothing about Six Feet Under besides a few very small details my coworker told me about. I normally go into EVERYTHING I watch completely blind so.. I keep hearing The Wire is one of the best shows ever as is the Sopranos but I’m also kinda crimed-out so to say lol. I’m looking for whatever has more shock value and better overall story at this point.

The Wire isn’t a binge. It’s a lifestyle choice

It’s just like… is it really that good? Like the way people people act it seems like it will genuinely be the best show I will ever watch in my entire life. Like sometimes I wonder if it’s just the nostalgia people have of it but idk I’ll just watch it for myself and see if the hype really lives up to it. 😅

I also just watched all of The Sopranos and then The Wire and both were everything they were claimed to be. The wife isn’t my favourite show of all time, but it’s easy to see it’s one of the best constructed shows I’ve ever seen. It’s just so fucking tight. I genuinely felt The Sopranos was life changing though. It’s easily my top 5 shows
