Ohh yeaThe best show out there .. After Dexter.Score: 5/5

A MUST SEE : ALL SEASONS.....this has to be one of the top 10 shows of all time West Wing being number one this series is amazing as well......watch it second season about the kids is so good.....The Wire should be in everyones library....i wish i could give this 10 stars.Score: 5/5

STILL NOT CONVINCEDOK, I'M WAITING FOR THIS TO GET GOOD. WHILE, STARTING OUT OK, JUST LIKE MOST OTHER COP DRAMAS, IT IS GETTING BETTER. EVEN HOWARD STERN SAID THAT HE DID NOT START GETTING INTO IT UNTIL THE SECOND SEASON. FIRST EPISODE REALLY DIDN'T PUT A HOOK IN ME. JUST LIKE THE NEW AMC DRAMA IN THE CIVIL WAR, "HELL ON WHEELS", OR "SONS OF ANARCHY", STOPPED WATCHING AFTER THE FIRST EPISODE. I AM WATCHING THIS FOR WHAT IT IS, A COP DRAMA PRODUCED IN 2002. WHILE SOME SAY THEY MAKE THEIR KIDS WATCH IT BECAUSE IT REPRESENTS LIFE ON THE STREETS OF BALTIMORE, THAT DOESN'T MEAN I MAKE MY KIDS WATCH "BREAKING BAD". NOW, THAT IS THE BEST, LET ME SAY AGAIN, BEST SHOW ON TV RIGHT NOW. YES, EVEN BETTER THAT MAD MEN. THAT IS THE ONE AND ONLY SHOW, THAT HAD ME IN THE FIRST 2 MINUTES OF THE TRAILER, RIGHT UP UNTIL "FACE OFF". CLASS ACT. I AM STILL GIVING "THE WIRE" A CHANCE, I WANT TO LIKE IT..Score: 3/5

Another soundI just cant believe all the positive comments about this show !! I love TV and movies ( and also books by the way) and enjoyed shows like : The Shield, Desperate Housewives, Family Guy, Tudors, Sopranos, Spooks etc.etc, and was certain to be entertained by this one, but boy was I wrong. Dull, Dull Dull, Duller , Dullest. Dullest show on earth ; period..Score: 1/5

The wireThis show is truly hands down the best show ever. I'm not just saying that because I've lived here my whole life. What the wire has brought to television is what most shows haven't, and that the truth about what's really going on out here..Score: 5/5

FantasticI hesitated at first to get into this show. But by the second episode of the first season I was hooked. This is a well cast, well acted series. But the key to this show is the writing. This a series of great stories. And like another great crime show "Homicide -Life on the Street's"; this show is set in Baltimore. And a number of the cast, writers, and people responsible for bringing this show to air are from Baltimore. All that gives this show a charm and ambiance that's not seen in many shows. I cannot figure out why this show was stopped at five seasons, it was still going strong. Take a chance on just one season, you won't be sorry; this show delivers..Score: 5/5

Above and beyond the BEST SERIES EVER!!Had to buy a digital version because Iā€™ve already viewed the DVDs too many times. It is brilliant. Even though the technology may not be current the underlying problems remain the same. After watching all 5 seasons you can see how everything is intertwined. The problems arenā€™t just drugs. Or politics. Or media. They all play a pivotal role in Baltimore and many other cities across the nation. Donā€™t know if there is anything a solution because 15 years after the series previewed the same problems exist..Score: 5/5

An Amazing show...This show is still top notch, but I have a question, why aren't all of the episodes in widescreen presentation and surround sound? I was just curious....Score: 5/5

Top cop drama, strongly recommendedBefore watching this show, I had only heard and read brief reviews about The Wire. I am usually sceptical about TV series in general, however, this being HBO, and the fact that ALL reviews were fantastic, I gave it a shot. I was blown away. The depth of ALL of the characters, not just the main 2 or 3 is very well thought out, and clearly there was thought of seasons after season 1. The character and story arcs are large, but well thought out. Most police shows are not good. Plain and simple. There are very unrealistic scenes, circumstances and scenarios. Paired with the fact that typical cop TV shows require 2000 bullets being fired for one person to be shot. Ridiculous. This is no such show. I have to admit, the first few episodes were slow. I understand now that this was because it was laying the group work for a very sophisticated and deep television series spanning past season 1. It has an unprecedented array of character arcs that intertwine with each other to such a degree, I have to put the show on pause at time just to put it all together. Fantastic. This show allows you to think, which is something I enjoy. As most reviewers also state, this shows closest rival with regards to "realism" is probably "Southland". This show is not filmed like Southland (semi-single camera situations). It is filmed similar to The Sopranos with multiple cuts and angles of all characters-typical HBO fashion. The fact that this show follows the story of not just the police, but also the "gangsters" is a nice touch. The viewer gets to look in to both sides of the situation involving both parties, allowing you to know more than the actual characters do inside the series. Watch it, you will not be disappointed. Highly recommended..Score: 5/5

Absolutely terrific buy thisThis is one of the best series I have ever seen. Absolutely flawless acting story line...very very intelligent... Everything. You will not regret this purchase..Score: 5/5

A work of art - Astonished it's not more popularThis is without doubt one of the finest TV series ever made. I'm only writing this review as it's sad to think that more people might not enjoy a truly awesome show. It's not for passive watching, it's like reading a book you just can't book down. Sure there's some barriers to entry, it can be hard to understand and you have to pay attention but it's worth it every single minute. I'm not normally bossy but you simply have to watch it. Please. You'll say this after you've seen it - I promise..Score: 5/5

Almost PerfectThe story and characters were great. The acting superb. The portrayal of a dysfunctional police force (which they all are) accurate. My only criticism is that this is native 4:3 and not 16:9. I realize in 2002 HD was not main stream. Perhaps it is time to rerelease this in HD. Thanks for the great series..Score: 5/5

The best TV show everThe Wire is a better cop show that NYPD Blue or the Shield, it's better on gangsters than The Sopranos, says more about politics than the West Wing and blows the CSI franchise away in one amazing forensics scene. I'm jealous of anyone who hasn't experienced The Wire yet because they have a life-changing experience ahead of them. This is what TV could and should be. It's as complex and multi-layered as the best novel you've ever read, as powerful as the best movie you've ever seen, and as enjoyable as a regular thriller. It shows you how the "war on drugs" is a war doomed to be lost, and how the tired concepts of "good" and "evil" just don't help explain how a modern city can become such a morass. Everyone should see this show. It simply can't be praised highly enough..Score: 5/5

On the drug-infested streets of West Baltimore, there are good guys and there are bad guys. Sometimes you need more than a badge to tell them apart.

The ensemble cast includes Dominic West, John Doman, Idris Elba, Frankie R.

McNulty's on harbor patrol. Daniels is in the police-archives dungeon. Prez is chafing in the suburbs. Greggs has a desk job. The detail may be on ice, but corruption marches on . . . and a horrific discovery is about to turn the Baltimore shipping port inside out. HBO presents Season 2 of this gritty drama series that focuses on the vagaries of crime and law enforcement in Baltimore, MD. Setting up in the wake of the first season's joint homicide/narcotics detail that exposed a major drug operation — and left its members stigmatized and reassigned — the second season expands to include not only familiar drug dealers, but a group of longshoremen and organized crime members who are caught up in a major homicide case. The cast includes Dominic West, Chris Bauer, Paul Ben-Victor, John Doman, Idris Elba, and Frankie R. Faison.

The heat is on in Baltimore. The drug war is being lost, bodies are piling up, and a desperate mayor wants the tide turned before the election. But the police department hasn't got any answers.

But no matter how hard McNulty and the detail try, the dealers always seem to be one step ahead of the game. Itā€™s time to change the rules. A new story begins in Season 3 of the acclaimed HBO drama series that focuses on the vagaries of crime, law enforcement, and politics in Baltimore, MD. As told from the points of view of both the police and their targets, The Wire captures a universe of subterfuge and surveillance, where easy distinctions between good and evil, and crime and punishment, are challenged at every turn.
