Anyone watching this HBO series?

I'm really feeling it. In my opinion in brings together all the great aspects of The Wire, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, Lost etc. with an incredible script and actors to boot.

The way it's shot, the way it's narrated (Usual Suspects?), I'm really impressed and only on episode 5.

The name of the show doesn't do it justice as it makes you think some whack CSI type show. It's not that.

Peace

Have to agree....it took me an episode or two to 'get into it'. Definitely some WIRE/Sopranos over tones!! Well worth watching!!

I'm huge Br Ba and The Wire fan!!!
