When "The Wire" saw the middle of the second season, a sentence suddenly appeared in the barrage: "Seeing the people here, everyone can probably be friends." Thinking about it, it really seems like this, and you can click on the second because of appreciation. Season's people probably found some points of resonance in this play because of some life experiences. Of course, empathy alone is not enough to make people interested. After all, "The Wire", which covers many classes and occupations such as police officers, drug dealers, workers, politicians, teachers, journalists, etc., has not been very popular in the five seasons. Therefore, everyone who may be able to be attracted by it in the end also has a strong voyeuristic desire for all living beings.
HBO's show, one thing is very unique. Even if you feel bored at the beginning, it seems that you rarely set 1.5x speed or 2x speed to watch because of boredom. Take the first season of "True Detective", which has only made the audience feel better since the fourth episode, as an example. The Shinto atmosphere created by Rust under the simple main line will inevitably be damaged as long as the playback is accelerated. In contrast, "The Wire" doesn't have a certain atmosphere on purpose, and there is basically no background music at all, but it still makes it difficult to fast forward (even when I feel a certain section is boring). Think about it, real life is always like this, plain and ordinary, but no one wants to skip it. In this way, everyone's blandness is intertwined, and there is a great American version of the 21st century world romance novel like "The Wire".
