Re: The Wire

Wow 9.8/10 rating on IMDb from 9,000 votes, I shall have to get this... thanks guys.

I also recommend Deadwood (western) also by HBO and has 3 seasons, cancelled because it was too expensive to make! You can tell it was expensive just by watching it, stars Timothy Olyphant (Die Hard 4, Hitman) and Ian McShane... 9.3/10 from 7,000 votes and Season 1 is excellent.

Re: The Wire

Yeah its very good.

I've only seen season 1 but that was excellent, if a little too slow paced at times.

I'd still take Dexter and Prison Break (season 1 :xCry: ) ahead of it though.

Re: The Wire

initially i found it overwhelming loads of characters with loads of deep dialogue, but by episode 3 i was hooked. i like character driven serials. although i do like the fast paced nature of prison break as well

Re: The Wire

On the penultimate episode of Season 2.

This rivals The Sopranos.

Re: The Wire

yeah, gotta love the Wire. The best tv show ever written. Fact. probably.

 

Ive just finished season 4, another great one. 2 is a bit different but still good, who couldnt love ziggy? 3 and 4 are exceptional, 4 is very heavy and can get a little bleak.

 

Im gonna weep when season 5 ends no more after that. knowing that they are only ever gonna do 5 has made me saviour it so much more.
