A drama show that's written in the most remarkable way with a high focus on realism and getting the culture right. It's a show for music lovers, drama lovers and fans of David Simon he's a genius in creating a world that's filled with realism and culture. From the great written characters and story arcs for them to the actors portraying them is just impressive and magnificent, you grow to love all of them, even characters I disliked, David Simon and his writers does as always a fantastic job at bringing us fleshed out characters that aren't black or white. I have actually never been that interested in New Orleans or it's culture but after experiencing the city with this show as I feel that you get a good feel of what the city is supposed to be and it made me fall in love with the city and culture, the music and parades, just amazing. I want to experience it in person someday.
The ensemble cast is superb and has numerous of well known actors from different shows like Kim Dickens, Melissa Leo, Clarke Peter's, Wendell Pierce, Michiel Huisman, David Morse, Jon Seda and other great unknown ones like Rob Brown, Lucia Micarelli and Steve Zahn. Great hand picked cast, I liked them all. There were also real artists like Steve Earle, Dr John and Elvis Costello with lots of more that brought us some superb live music that.
