I was a kid when The Wire was out, and needless to say my parents didn't like the idea of me watching HBO. I had caught a few episodes here and there and was immediately drawn in, obviously it was a great show. But in just a couple of episodes I find myself entirely drawn to this show. The depth and lengths they went to capture the true essence of New Orleans post Katrina is awe inspiring and goes without saying, eye opening. Steve Zahn and Wendell Pierce are their characters. They are standouts, but every character has a lot of depth to them, reeling from the different effects the hurricane brought to them individually and the city as a whole. And not to mention the music!! If you're a jazz or blues lover, the music alone is worth the watch. It's amazing. 10/10, HBO scores again.
