This series isn't as broad as the Wire, it seems to be focussed mostly on the Police perspective, the criminal element are bit players and carry no weight. I can't see it running for more than a season or two as it's telling a very specific story. In some ways I think it's a reaction to the BLM movement, they have the Office of Civil Rights represented in the storyline for show, but in Baltimore, there are no solutions and nobody ever wins, they just keep shuffling the deck.

It's based on a book, so yeah I don't think it's intended as a long running series. I'm interested in checking out the book now though as it's a non-fiction best seller by a Baltimore reporter. I want to see how close the show is to the true story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHeart Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 at least the developers are making their own decisions, I would hate to see other streaming services go to hell like Netflix has (poor cancellation decisions, jacking the price) speaking of netflix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Caught the last Norm MacDonald special called "Nothing Special" on Netflix, filmed the day before he died in surgery, it's fascinating and haunting to watch considering the circumstances, and it's apparent he was very vital and would still be with us had the surgery gone well. Norm did not fade away. Followed up with a panel discussion with Dave Chappelle, David Letterman, Adam Sandler, David Spade, Conan O'Brien, and Molly Shannon, well worth the watch and countless re-watching. Here is the trailer. https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/81128851 Noeller, Wideleft and Bigblue204 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHeart Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) well this is fantastic news, I actually spent quite a bit of time on the site last summer watching the Surreal Life (I had to use a VPN though) wish it had all the episodes though they didn't have the Dirty Laundry episode of season 4 Edited June 8, 2022 by iHeart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHeart Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 well since season 1 was a parody of Brigadoon, the next one will be a parody of Chicago, so I guess they make any parody with the "Schm" prefix https://tvline.com/2022/06/10/schmigadoon-renewed-season-2-chicago-parody-new-returning-cast/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
