I think the Wire was way inferior, acting wise, to the Sopranos. Writing not so good, either, the McNutty and his black pal, and wife and kids and girl friends has got to be the worst characterizations since, I don't know when. Some parts are excellent, a lot of the inner story around the higher ranking cops and politicians was very good. I only watched 2 or 3 epsodes of Treme and bailed on it. Same thing. Unbelievable characters, poor dialog and acting.
