TBH Season 4 was my 2nd favourite after Season 2. I liked all the young'uns in it, afaik it meant to show how not many last long in the game they are either dead or in jail and the crews get younger and ypounger every year. Season 5 was my least favourite but I think they were trying to show how the American(not just the American media I may add) media only report on what they think will sell and will go with a story and the facts and truth often are ignored
Have to agree.Season 4 in my view is the best season of a TV drama ever, by quite a distance. The introduction of the younger characters, to show where the corner boys and street dealers came from worked beautifully and carried a real emotional impact, particularly when you see how some of them ended up. Stunning drama. Season 5 was a bit below the (impossibly high) standards of what went before, mainly due to the serial killer angle which just didn't really work for me. However I really enjoyed the last episode and the wrapping up of the story. Every characters fate in the series rang true, even those you wouldn't have wished (Dukie,Omar).My favourite was the demise of Cheese, which almost made me cheer.
