    Anyone watch that show Treme on HBO?

    I tried it a while back and mostly hated it because it's not The Wire.... however going back to it recently I think its actually done quite well so far.. just about half way through the first season now and the next one starts back up in April i think.

    I love the music and that it has Lester Freaman and the Bunk in it...

          I love The Wire with an intensity that could melt holes in steel, but I couldn't get into Treme. Someday I'll give it another chance, based solely on its pedigree.

          I didn't like Generation Kill that much either.

              Completely different then The Wire, except one thing, how the relationships between the viewer and characters developed.

              You can certainly see the same writer/mind in action behind it when you've watch one (and had loved the other).

              I think The Wire was one of the best TV shows ever put on TV, just great storytelling.

                  I'm totally there with you. I ended up liking the show okay, but it took me a while to warm to it at all because I loved loved loved The Wire. I've spent a lot of time in both Baltimore and New Orleans. I wouldn't have necessarily said I had a major preference, based on experience, and I live in Los Angeles now, but maybe I have more of a Baltimore mindset. I don't know. Mostly, The Wire is just a tough act to follow, even for the folks responsible.

                      I think thats what i missed the first time checking it out.. I was too upset that it wasn't a cop and gangster driven show.. It's more centered around the music and how they use it to mend everything it seems.. has some real depth so far anyway...
