I think I like it more because I grew up and worked in that environment and the show has it down pat.
Morning: Good work ethic, a little chit-chat
Lunchtime: A few shots and beers with the guys
Afternoon: Lazy work ethic, outright bitching replaces chit chat
Post-work: A billion shots and beers with the guys
Evening: Eat dinner and argue with the wife, go to bed

Is the show worth watching?
Jump in the discussion.

Yes though it's kind of preachy sometimes in the 2000's liberal way (especially on the War on Drugs) but isn't near as hamfisted or annoying as current year messages.

I'm young enough that y2k liberal preaching is my default reference point so I didn't even notice it compared to modern slop.
That said I'd recommend it. It has its reputation for a reason.

It's usually talked about as one of the big 3 HBO originals.
The first episode is boring because it takes so much time introducing all the good guys and all the bad guys.
Overall it's kino, especially the first 3 seasons.
Season 5 wasn't my thing.

Season 5 is kinda outrageous but pretty decent in hindsight, because it's all about journos making up stories to get clicks. The McNulty stuff just goes off the rails
Currently rewatching it cause I need something to watch while staying up with a new born. Don't really want to pay attention to anything to hard

I remember it being insane but haven't put much thought to it in ages
The wire and sopranos are shows don't want to admit how many times I've watched. Just background noise when I want to turn my brain off
I am pretty washed up these days and just can't commit to new shows. Like I want to watch say nothing cause the book was great but odds are I'll not

The show as a whole has held up very well throughout the years, the characters are just as well-written as when they premiered. The seasons vary in engagement, setting and tone; tempo and pacing between the different seasons can feel "off" but by the final season it's not too terrible.
In particular, the difference in pacing of the episodes between season 1 -> season 2 alongside the entirely new places and peoples introduced can make for viewer angst but it somehow comes together later in episodes.

the longshoreman are the worst. Their jobs are obsolete and theyre corrupt as frick. Automation would more than likely make it harder for human traffickers and fentnyl importers to work their stuff through the ports, i wonder how big that lobby is in keeping americas ports 30 years behind the other developed countries?

These guys are like a caricature of all the downsides of unions. Insanely corrupt, in bed with the mob, membership mostly going by nepotism. Low skilled job that pays ludicrous amount. Refuses technological advancement that bottlenecks the economy. Willing to trash everyone else to get their way.
