I got heavy into peaky blinders for a while. had a great time, but semi-consciously emulating a psychologically unhealthy protag didn’t do great things for me.
Brassic is the same premise as PB but modern and plays out like if Tommy was more of a stoner and didn’t sacrifice relationships and went to therapy.
It’s a wonderful, funny, quintessentially British experience of community, romance, the struggle to act well in the face of everyday struggles. It’s crime and healthy masculine friendships and I love it. does a great job of walking the line between realism and absurdity.

The Wire is a great choice. I remember the first season being my fav. I still need to finish Sopranos.
From the list above highly recommend Narcos and Peaky Blinders
