I thought the time had come to introduce JazzySon to one of the 5 greatest television shows ever. I checked out the first season of The Wire and invited him to sit and watch. It had been over a decade (longer?) since I had seen it, and I was eager to see it again myself. Fifteen minutes into the first episode, he was somewhat dividing his time between she show and his phone. Thirty minutes in, he was fully dividing his time. Forty-five minutes in, he was devoting more time to the phone than the show. By the end, I'm not even sure he noticed the first episode had ended.
Clearly, The Wire did not appeal to him. The only thing that seemed to really get his attention was when he realized one of the young recurring characters was played by Michael B Jordan.
OTOH, I really enjoyed watching the first season again!
