The Wire. People can argue season 5 was weak, but that's only in comparison to the other 4, it was still great.

Couldn't agree more. I initially thought Season 5 was less than stellar, but having seen the whole series a few times now, I've come around and really enjoyed it the last time through. While seemingly unrealistic, the newsroom perspective was great. I actually struggled more with the Season 3 storyline in the end.

Yeah, people also hate on Season 2. Which upon multiple rewatches actually get better and is super important for the overall story. The show in general gets better with multiple watches. It's easy to get caught up with all the different story lines and characters, that upon a second watch you are familiar enough to catch all the Easter eggs and connections, all the pieces matter!
