The best television show of ALL-TIME.
Ohhhhh baby. The brand new HD remaster in 16:9 of all the seasons of The Wire will be airing from Dec. 26-30 on HBO. Digital versions will be available to buy on Jan 5 and the BluRay will be released in the summer. In the words of the great Senator Clay Davis, "SHHHEEEIIITTTTTT". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1dnqKGuezo http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/12/03/hbo-announces-hd-remaster-of-the-wire
This is more like it @deanzel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrfCixsd2N8
TV at its very best, be warned this will ruin you for any other TV drama.
It was pretty boring. I was expecting much more with this high rating
Classic. They don't make shows like this anymore. Sadly. I wished it never ended but hey all good things must come to an end.
Such a great show, one of my favorite of all time. Season 4 is just heartbreaking...
One of the best TV shows ever!
It's a really good show but saying it's the best show of all time is ridiculous. The acting is sub-par, the characters are ones that we have seen a million times before, the themes are painfully obvious with absolutely no subtlety at all, and the directing is just above average. It's great if you're just looking for a show with a cool plot but it does not extend beyond that at all.
Great show well worth watching through until the end. Some of the best character development ever!
