Now I know there are a lot of fans of The Wire on this board, but I'm looking for people who have watched both shows. So save your

and
if you're a fan boy of The Wire and never seen one episode of Breaking Bad or vis-à-vis. I'm looking for quality thoughts and opinions.
The Wire had 5 seasons and each one was great. What made me like The Wire so much was that it had a "real" factor to it. Each season brought a different aspect of life of Baltimore which made it interesting for me to watch.
Breaking Bad has now had 4 seasons and it's going into its fifth and final season. I think season 4 has set the bar for television really high. Both Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul basically sealed up their best actor and supporting actor awards. The development of Gus this season was amazing to watch.
I feel season 5 could be a make or break for Breaking Bad in terms of its place with the all-time great shows. However, at this moment, I have to say Breaking Bad has surpassed The Wire.
*This thread is for the sake of discussion. I want to hear people’s thoughts. I know comparing two great shows and saying which is better can be hard.
