Fuck The Wire, you need to get on your grind kid and keep watching them Entourage re-runs.
Fuck that shit. Entourage is great but the wire is more than solid. a very good series.
The Wire is HBO's best series ever. But I started a thread about it a year or two ago and nobody responded.
No way it can be better than Sex and the City...
I have always wanted to watch The Wire but never got around to it. I have a feeling I'm going to end up with one long month of watching every DVD sometime soon.
i used to love the wire.... but this season i havent watched a single episode

Yeah I made a post about Brotherhood and nobody fucking responded, pieces of shit...
I too will probably one day binge on The Wire...
Okay, The Wire is HBO's best series ever for heterosexual males.No way it can be better than Sex and the City...
This year is slightly different from the others in that the focus is on schools and the Mayor's office, and not much on the Major Crimes Unit.
Still, great writing and intricate plotting. I'd probably be frustrated except for the fact that I can watch the shows repeatedly on HBO On Demand.
The Wire is simply amazing. It is the best show I've ever seen on television.
Oz, Wire & Sopranos are all awesome.
Dayum.
Is it me or does that kid Michael, have a HOT moms?????
Mr Prezbo, always trying to do right.
I feel bad for DeQuan.
It's just you living up to your title.
The hottie is the teacher in that special group class.
Indeed.
Her and Snoop, 3some!!!
Snoop.
Man, it is gettin' gooooood.
I'm going to rent the 1st 2 seasons (if they're out) & watch them this wk.
I loved the season with the Greek.
"Always there is more."
I had never watched an episode until i had to go out of town for work. They were showing a mini marathon of the newest season, and the show blew me away. People tell me this is the weakest season yet. So, I am very psyched to rent the first few season.
I agree this is the best drama ever on TV, and I think this season is just as good as previous ones. The junior high storyline is excellent.
The character development is as good as it gets. I find myself empathizing with drug-dealers and understanding murderers. Amazing.
I agree. I think this season is just as good as season three, if not better. If I had to rank them, it would be:
Season 1
Season 4
Season 3
Season 2
If this show doesn't take home an emmy this year it will be a fucking crime.
that nigga boadie got done up!
Just saw the last episode of the year on HBO On Demand.
Nice, but a lot of things unsettled for next year. And some interesting tie-ins to previous years.
was the last episode the one where michael fucks up that little kid then later on bitch slaps his friend?
i missed like 2 episodes before carcetti wins the mayoral campaign so i'm definately renting.
Can someone give me a quick rundown about what this show is about? I've never seen an episode or even heard of it, we don't get good TV down here in Australia.
Do tell.
That one is the next-to-last one.
The website Dio gave is probably the best place for info.
It's impossible to describe in a synopsis, but basically it's about a special Major Crimes Unit in the city of Baltimore, Maryland, which was originally formed to deal with drug dealers in the inner city. However, the show spends as much time with the drug dealers and their families as with the cops. It also branches out into politics of the mayor's office, internal police politics, union corruption on the city shipping docks (in previous years), and the public school system (this year). There's about 15 main characters and about double that in terms of significant minor ones, so you have to pay close
attention pretty much from beginning to end of each episode or you miss something. (I usually find myslef watchign each episode at least twice because the dialogue and accents get pretty thick.)
Anyway, the plotting is incredibily detailed (and the depiction of police work reportedly very realistic). and the actors, mostly a bunch of unknowns and some actually recruited off the streets of Baltimore, is great.
thoughts on the season finale? i don't know if y'all have already seen it or wait for the re-runs throughout the week.
apparently season number 5 is the last one, so it should be a good one. the thing that has me thinking is that they're setting up the carcetti thing like he's going to be running for governor in 2 years... so maybe due to the popularity of the show they'll stretch it out a bit more.
I've finally gotten around to watching season 1 on DVD, and it truly one of the best shows I have ever seen.
