Top Boy S5 — 1.5/5
Out with a whimper. As with last season, the show decided to focus on its top two boys despite both of them being the least interesting thing about the show. And now they face made up drama after made up drama, adding layers all around them, none of which add anything to the final, thankful end. Overall—I'm glad it wasn't a Scorsese 'people get punished in the end but boy isn't being a criminal fun!!!' Throughout, drug dealing seems like an awful trade full of awful people. Were I ever to run an anti-drug campaign, I'd just speak to the economics of it all. High-risk, low yield, except for the people at top who constantly have a target on their back. Like the show at its worst—it's no fun.
