Why do hbo shows usually have solid writing and researched stories? You wouldn't see the writers for shows like obi wan being employed by hbo. Why is hbo able to hire more competent writers than disney? Surely Disney has the money to bring in better writers?
Deadwood, succession, we own this city, the wire, sopranos, righteous gemstones, band of brothers, Rome, etc
All of these are better than disney shit. What the fuck is happening to modern writers and why is hbo escaping it????
I already watched it and for a such an incendiary topic it was fucking boring. I ask you, name the best part.

it was like it tried to be The Shield but splicing in the preachier parts of The Wire and some really bad casting decisions.

I liked that it was reminiscent of a true classic, The Wire. it's a honest look into a problematic topic and it's thought-provoking. I liked that it shows you the issue from the point of view of the cops, tells you why they do what they do, because things are not as simple as just saying "Cops are Bastards".
not sure what you mean with "what was the best part"
because HBO shows tend to be lower budget and are willing to take risks. If a show doesn't turn out well they get a new one. Disney, Netflix etc have a brand where they need to keep a tight reign on things. You dont want to be the exec who wasted a bunch of money on an expensive show that did not appeal to the common denominator.
This and they aren't restricted by standards and practices and cater(ed) to an audience who was into film and comedy. You can try some really niche things and it wasn't tied directly to subscribers or ratings.
Disney has a long tradition of making really fucking terrible movies and making billions, they thought the same model could be applied to streaming. It doesn't work, marketing can't get people interested past the first few episodes and they get burnt out, hence nobody watching obi wan or the last MCU shows

That "fuck white people" they made to re-write history to claim whites never did anything, and stole all of our accomplishments from other races.
That's literally the reason why I disconnected my HBO.
Shame, you missed out on the rollercoaster ride that is We Own This City.
>That "fuck white people" they made
Which one?
>Grew up in a household with a single mom and two sisters
>Everytime I see the HBO logo the Sex and the City theme starts playing in my head

Boring as fuck. All Whyte Peepol be da devil an sheeeit. Dindus get their drug money stolen. That is sad.
Show Me a Hero was a much better limited series and theoretically should have been much more boring.
it's kino.
name the best part.
it gets better with each episode, the last 3 episodes are great. the finale is a 10/10.

Yes. Chuds get triggered by it for some reason though.
they have experience in the business, and rack up all the best people. as soon as someone shows real talent, HBO makes an approach.
