Dope

This show is pretty interesting if you're interested in the drug world, or crime stories in general. It's just generally well put together and overall I really enjoy it. There are a few unbelievable stories that feel extremely scripted, but they don't really hurt the general feel or message of the episodes. My only main complaint with the series is that it's becoming increasingly dependent on extremely annoying shots of B-roll while blasting one of four songs, and over the course of the series those weird musical interludes become longer and more common. Feels like a dumb complaint to have about an otherwise entertaining show, but then again, I've heard "Devil's Playground" or "Gimme That Money" at least twenty times each over the course of three seasons. As long as the sound engineer chills out this show will remain one of my Netflix go-tos.

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 love the documentary, but is anyone else annoyed by the different genre of dramatic music playing? Lol

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

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