The Wire is very good, but Breaking Bad is on another level. The characters in The Wire don't even go nearly as deep as in Breaking bad, the writing is dragged across questionably repetitive premises, and the cinematography is basic/empty as fuck compared to all the subtleties BrBa offers. You can't possibly think TW is better without bias.

If you haven't, I envy you because you get to watch it all from a fresh perspective.

Season 1 is brilliant, season 2 changes direction a bit with different (albeit, I still think good) characters but it really picks up in Season 3 and 4. I do envy you indeed if you've got this to look forward to.

is the wire on netflix or amazon vod?

If you're looking for funny check out Louie or It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia both on Netflix.

I found the perfect substitute:

aside from BB I really enjoy the walking dead (obv.), Justified, and i sort of a little bit enjoy falling skies at times.
