Warning: rewatching The Wire with subtitles turned on was a totally different show for me
I binged all 5 seasons of The Wire back in 2019 on my phone at the gym, no captions, and I honestly missed probably a third of the dialogue. Last week I started it over on the TV with subtitles on and I caught at least 5 things in the first 3 episodes alone that I never heard the first time. The corner kids mumble half their lines and the cops talk over each other in the detail room, so yeah, it makes sense now. It went from a show I liked to one I can't stop talking about, and that took about 4 nights of watching. Anyone else forced themselves to use captions on a rewatch and felt like they got a whole new show out of it, or is it just me getting old?
