The Wire is my all time favorite. Currently watching The Shield and while it’s not bad, it’s more of an edgy Law and Order type cop show.

I don’t think anything truly measures up to The Wire but just wanted to hear about anyone else’s recommendations.

It's been a while since I watched it so not sure how it has stood the test of time, but Oz made a big impression on me. Brutal, but great TV.
