Why? Why does this article make you say that?

It’s really good because it’s a wholly different look at people and culture than traditional tv. Standard issue TV focuses on individual character stories - stuff happens to them, they do stuff they grow. This is true in The Wire too, but the show looks at how all the characters intersect with each other + the cultural aspect of each season. It’s a look at the systemic structure of society, and it’s clarity and nuance is what makes it the best show.
Really only Season 2-3 Game of Thrones achieves this level of societal critique, not much else as effective.

Reply to A 2-year-old boy was lost in the Florida woods for 24 hours. Everyone feared the worst. Hundreds of volunteers came out to look for him. One volunteer came to a fork in a field: right or left? He trusted his gut, went left and soon heard a whimper. It was the little boy, crying but in good health. by ConquerWyoming
So I’m probably being over-dramatic that gators are gonna eat me if I walk around in Florida? Or just a lucky kid?
