Dope

The best part was the "phone calls" arranging the package. Totally fake.

Have to disagree knowing facts. But what may have been better understood is defining the subjective term "poverty." Because according to the legal definition, the show was correct. And in Detroit it is well over half.

I think it is harsh downgrading the show to a 2 just for that but it's your opinion so I will respect it. Having some knowledge both hearing it on blast now is not only well documented but also depressive.

I take away the true over all picture that the war on drugs is not a war, it is a political platform to award an agenda. If the United States had the power or backing like the Philippines, then you could call it a war and that this country is doing something about it.

This show is spot on showing drugs in people's lives in the United States. How other countries demonstrate the US as the best customer and why. Drugs rules many countries, fund many countries and facilitate disguised happiness; in the US, they just do it better. Once you cross that line no matter what the involvement is, it is tough if not impossible to cross back.

Enough of the psychology...series is well done, well edited and very complete with information on both sides.

The amount of guts from this crew and team to show dozens of layers of heavy drug issues in America is incredible. From distributors to street dealers and addicts to local and federal law enforcement - this series doesn't flinch an inch.

S1E4 on Chicago's endless crack problem was one of the first times that I can remember seeing mainstream reporting acknowledging how deadly and clausterphobic that the city really is.

I mean sure the stories might be fake, and maybe the characters are fake. But whatever, it was entertaining and that's why I have Netflix.

.....there is no reason to shake the camera that much. It's not watchable
