    Best 1st season of any show!

    Incredible. The beginning seems kinda dry, however, once you get into it you're immersed in their world and you want to skip work the next day just to finish it! I bought the first 2 seasons, I'm definitely buying the next few.

  • The VERY BEST SERIES on TV EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If you missed this gem of a series when it premiered on HBO in 2002 don't despair, you have plenty of time to catch up before the last season airs. If you are a viewer that likes his/her shows all tied up neat and tidy by the end of each episode, this show is not for you. If you enjoy intricately woven storylines, characters that are created and portrayed with such authenticity you will forget that they are actors and totally realistic plotlines, then this is the show for you. But make sure you start at the beginning with the first season because this intricately woven series unfolds like a novel you wish would never end. If you were a fan of Homicide: Life On The Street and/or The Corner, then you, like me have probably been banging your drum to anyone within earshot about The Wire ...

  • Bmore at its finest

    This show will make you laugh,cry,get upset and feel almost every emotion youve every felt before. Look at me talking like a female... The best part about this though is the authenticity towards the lifestyle from both different aspects Police & Streets. Love the TUUUU instead of TO and DUUUU instead of DO. Actors play thier roles perfectly. Id rate this a 100/100. Get this now. If your still on the fence Go watch some clips of Youtube. Youll be hooked.

  • Politics & Death

    I had seen this series on HBO before and I was intrigued by the fact of how close the kingpins and politicians are so closely alike. They have the same type of cutthroat ideas and attitudes that plague our country. And unfortunatley, real people get caught in the crossfire of illegal practices. I would recommend this series to anyone who wants to have a real eye opener. It may not be the most dramatic series you will ever see, but it will make you want to see more. Your spine will tingle at the senseless but yet provocative minds of the detectives, majors, drug lords, councilmen, and even the mayor. In my opinion, I would give this a 9.5 in sheer quality and because how the director makes you think of what really happens in a city plagued with selfishness.

  • The Wire - Complete First Season

    For my money, The Wire is the best show on Television. The best written, acted, and most life-like storylines I have ever seen. It's the best show HBO has ever done, better than the Sopranos! The characters are very well developed, and the dialogue demands sharp attention. This show is not for those seeking mindless entertainment. It is very deep and very engaging. The good guy doesn't always win in this show. You will learn or gain a better idea of what life on the street is like for the less fortunate and what it takes for them to survive. The writers for this show deserve a lot for this work.
