... the editing and directing makes for a confusing story. It is very hard to follow. They flashback to 5 years ago, then ten years ago, than 20 years ago, and the timeline very hard to follow. I get it, they are trying to tell the story of how people got to where they are but it gets confusing the way they did it. At the same time you need to know all the names G-Money, Shropshire, Allers.

This is very poorly edited, and makes it hard to really care about the characters and story.

They should have kept it simple because the story is interesting and the actors are all amazing. Since this is just a mini series, I only hope they tie it up smoothly together in the coming episodes.

View this show as its own entity - despite it being as ambitious and involved as The Wire. The writing is spectacularly good and thankfully avoids cliches and so many other pitfalls that are the standard of network 'cop shows', which has also been creeping into non-network shows of late. And the acting talent meets the quality of the writing and direction. Hopefully people can just sit back and enjoy the show for what it is and not politicize it - taking sides, etc. Just the fact that it tackles a specific subject in a way that hasn't been done in this style is such a breath of fresh air and this show is worth watching.

It's 2017 Baltimore. The Freddie Gray killing has put police brutality on the front pages. The Gun Trace Task Force has been using questionable tactics to take out guns and drugs. Most of all, they are stealing from criminals and regular folks alike. Sgt. Wayne Jenkins (Jon Bernthal) is a central figure in the ensuing scandal.

It's another Baltimore crime drama from David Simon. This one is really ripped from the headlines. It's a little more contained than The Wire. It's only six episodes long. As always, it is an interconnected story with the reality of the world. This is a must-see for fans of The Wire.

We Own This City is every bit as good as people say it is. Jon Betnthal is such an underrated actor, he's great in just about everything he does and is definitely great here. A lot of people are comparing this to The Wire, while not nearly as good I can see the similarities. The writing and acting are what makes this show so good. The fact that this based off a true story makes the show that more exciting. I'm looking forward to the rest of the season!

I absolutely loved We Own This City! It was so much better than I expected it to be. It's about the corruption inside one of the Baltimore police forces departments called the Gun Trace Task Force. You will get so invested in the story and what's going to happen next that it will keep you glued to your tv. The real standout in this show is the incredibly talented Jon Bernthal. He should be nominated for an Emmy for his work in this. David Simon is one of the creators and writers of this show, he's known for his work on such shows as The Wire, The Deuce, Treme, etc. This has that same realistic, gritty feel as those shows did. I highly recommend this show to everyone!
