Default Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?

When does stuff start happening in the wire? I'm on the 5th episode and nothing is going on. Does it get better? Is season 1 really slow?

Pretend its an epic novel. You have to get past the first few chapters before it envelops you. You're right at the point, though, where you'll either become a fan or decide it's not your style. Episode 6 or so is where things start to kick off.

I guess it's not my style, I'll finish the season I think, but I just finished ep 10 and I don't think it's brought any sort of excitement or emotion from me at any point. There's not even really anything that I'm curious about how it's going to end either. What's the attraction to this show? It's a serious question btw, I'm not trying to just rip on it. Don't just say "it's awesome" either because that doesn't tell me anything.
