Chalky will always be Chalky, to me. As I've only watched 1 episode of "The Wire". This doesn't go over well with a lot of people, as I am an HBO series enthusiast. I have HBOGO, and I can't really get into "The Wire" for some reason. Sorry, WYN.
I would give The Wire about five or six episodes. The great thing about The Wire is that every scene matters; there is very little filler. And the first half of each season basically sets up everything that goes down in the second half or, in some cases, future seasons. It stars slow, so I'm not surprised if you were underwhelmed after the first episode. But if you like Breaking Bad and Boardwalk Empire, I can't see why you wouldn't like The Wire. It is just as strong, maybe stronger, than both shows.
