Breaking Bad didn't catch an audience until it was on Netflix, and Ozark is still kind of a niche thing and it's a netflix show.

offhand idk which ones you're talking about, although you could really go back to Weeds which I think predates The Wire?

But even that's still only a niche hit that had a much more straightforward approach.
