Gameplay of the original bounced off me a bit, but I'm always interested in Cole's work, and as you note, few games have such interesting framing.

It's perverse, and if anything, it's worse here than on Twitter.

Is this an argument for the quality of 24 or for its cultural relevance?

Closest thing to The Wire is arguably Andor, or could have been had they not been in a hurry to get to Rogue One.

Chernobyl was easily as good as anything on the list, but it's hard to directly compare a four episode show to things that went season after season.

It mostly bounced off me, but I did appreciate the self-awareness of the guy reading the comic and screaming out about how pretentious it was.

The great achievement of Breaking Bad was its depiction of the American Southwest (derogatory). Beyond that, and a very few stellar episodes, it was decidedly mid. Wouldn't be in my top 10, and not sure it would make my top 20.

seanmac31.bsky.social @seanmac31.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

I'm quite partial to the opening three, but yes, you'll get a different flavor if you can move forward.

seanmac31.bsky.social @seanmac31.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

I never really liked Breaking Bad at the time, beyond the accuracy of its depiction of the Southwest. Just an obviously inferior show to The Wire. But I do get that they are accounting for cultural relevance and staying power.

seanmac31.bsky.social @seanmac31.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

I'm assuming they figured BSG would take the slot, and yes, it had greater cultural impact, but still an unacceptable decision.

seanmac31.bsky.social @seanmac31.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

I think the episode to episode quality of Louie was significantly higher, though obviously it didn't have the kind cultural impact that the top CS skits did.

They should draft three quarterbacks. (I'm half serious.)

The fact that this is an equally good argument for blaming every one of those deaths on Osama Bin Laden should probably tell you how useful this sort of metric is.

I have thought all off-season about the parallels between Glenn's first year and Bill Parcells with the Giants. I feel good about him righting the ship.

Bo Nix is wrapping up what may be the worst game of quarterbacking I have ever seen (and I have seen every snap of Zach Wilson).

9/11 was the most important turning point in American society and culture since 1917. Part of what has gotten us here--ie, at Fascism--is treating History as a consumer good.

It is very funny how many leftists turn into John Mearsheimer when it comes to 9/11 Everyone is rational, anything is justified if there’s a western provocation, and nobody cooks their brain on ideology

I wrote a(nother) thing! This time it is about how no amount of military technical excellence can salvage a situation where political leadership has, in their abject strategic incompetence, demanded the military accomplish an impossible mission. Gift link: foreignpolicy.com/2026/08/21/i...
