8.5
8.5 star

Russell tells Sobotka the investigation is over, but, in fact, a port computer is cloned, and when a container goes missing, the detectives follow. Simultaneously, Greggs and Prez tap into a circuit of Russian prostitutes. With two sets of evidence, the detail goes to Pearlman. Neither crime merits wiretap--but a drug connect could give the case legs..

Great Season!The Wire is one of the best television series I've ever watched. It ranks with other greats, such as Six Feet Under. This season focuses on the port of Baltimore, but most of the characters from the first season are there too with their stories continuing to develop..Score: 5/5

Another Great SeasonI 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

The 2nd album problem ... not in this case!After a great 1st series, would the 2nd be as good? Hmm, the 2nd album syndrome. Not in the case of The Wire which just seems to get better and better. I know, Ā£1.89 per episode is a bit steep and yes, you can pick up the DVDs cheaper elsewhere but sometimes you just need your instant fix, whatever the price (Avon would be proud!). PS. The loss of one star is for itunes and not the producers. Come on itunes, have a wee think about pricing (credit crunch and all that) and also what products you can get on the US site compared to the UK one! Having said that, well done itunes for putting all five series up now..Score: 4/5

A brilliant second chapterI have heard talk of the second series not "being up to scratch" etc but in my opinion, this is one of the best parts of the best TV show ever. The family relationships of the Sobotka family (particularly the strength of Frank) were extremely life like. The way David Simon and Ed Burns can show another shady element in Baltimore (the port) as well as keeping the project story moving along is nothing short of genius. Five out of five for me on this series !.Score: 5/5

How much!!!Firstly can I thank the iTunes boys and girls for putting this up for purchase. This is the best TV series I have ever had the pleasure of watching. It's gripping, comedic in parts but most of all the characterisation is fabulous. I thought Battlestar was good and I loved Dexter however this just steals the show. While McNulties accent is a bit dodgy in parts this does not detract from the power of the script. Thank you iTunes however, I won't be buying from you you've had enough of my money already!!!!.Score: 5/5

Addictive TVFantastic........................thats about all you can say. The series is realistic, gripping and does not sugar coat at the end, the characters are excellent, its well written, no dialogue wasted. Moving on to 3 now..................Score: 5/5

The wire is one of the best.What can i say this is a top show and happy iTunes have now uploaded it all. But the price needs to be looked at. Would give it 5 stars but the price. Thank god for downloads.Score: 4/5

The wireOne of the best TV series ever. I was totally wrapped up and like many of my friends totally addicted to it. So be careful lots of sleepless nights. I have sat up for 24 hours to watch as much as i could at the time. The only problem is how can the producers top this? Hard to imagine. Since then i Have watched all five series twice and every time i notice something i had not seen before and would still watch it again. However could not watch it as a weekly TV series could not stand the wait. Luckily it's available to buy. If you have not seen it before (though i am yet to meet any one who have not yet seen even one episode) have a look, but a word of caution make sure you have lots of time on your hands and let everyone know you will be out of contact for a while, a long while. Happy viewing see you on the wire and remember you never know who is listening..Score: 5/5

Best TV Show Everā€¦ā€¦Even for Ā£1.89 PER Episode!!This has to be the best TV show ever made. Slow burning, intelligent and full of complex and real characters. Omar is my personal favourite character in any TV drama. A word about pricing iTunes. I'm not sure who decides on these prices but Ā£1.89 per episode is a rip off, when are you going to learn that if you put the prices down slightly then the profits would rocket..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. From HBO comes Season 1 of this highly realistic drama series that follows a single sprawling drug and murder investigation in Baltimore — one that culminates in a complex series of dangerous wiretaps and surveillance. Told from the points of view of both the police and their targets, the series captures a universe where easy distinctions between good and evil, and crime and punishment, are challenged at every turn. The ensemble cast includes Dominic West, John Doman, Idris Elba, Frankie R. Faison, Larry Gilliard Jr., Wood Harris, Domenick Lombardozzi, Deirdre Lovejoy, Wendell Pierce, Lance Reddick, Andre Royo, and Sonja Sohn.

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. Wiretaps havenā€™t worked. Neither have stakeouts or street busts. With the demolition of the Franklin Terrace towers, Stringer Bell and the Barksdale crew have been forced to improvise. 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.
