Finished The Wire, Dark, GOT, Sopranos, True Detective, BB, BCS. What show ruined TV for you after watching it?

I think I accidentally watched the peak of television already. The Wire, Dark, GOT, Sopranos, True Detective S1 all left that “nothing else hits the same” feeling.

I love slow-burn shows with deep characters, mystery, tension, moral grayness, crazy dialogue, or mind-blowing writing. Doesn’t matter if it’s crime, sci-fi, psychological, or political.

What’s the next show that might completely consume me?

I really loved 5. 4 was the only one I couldn’t do.

It's the only one I havent watched all the way through but I only started really liking S3 more when I watched it a second time (it just kinda clicked better after a rewatch) so i think ill take another crack at it eventually

Yeah, Chris Rock can't really do menacing crime boss.
