But seriously, you should watch it. There is a reason 99% of television critics call it the greatest television show ever

It's not really about gangs, drugs, or police. It's more of a piece on the urban city in general in all aspects. Crime, Politics, Schools, media. It's the greatest story told visually ever.

There has never been a show or movie were as great of characters. There are 50 + characters all with rich backstory and development. It is the blueprint for character driven drama if there ever was one
