Great showAlthough Season 4 was my favorite (those kids just killed me), The Wire was a great show. Why this show wasn't loaded down with Emmys is beyond me. Goes to show what those awards really mean- nothing. Everyone involved should be proud of the work they did. I also want to add that I will never forgive the writers for what happened to Randy and Dukie, but thank God Bugs had a pretty good ending..Score: 5/5

Not as great as seasons one or fourSeason five does a great job of wrapping up a number of character arcs in a believable way. However, it is nowhere near as compelling as seasons four and one. In particular, there is a plot twist with McNulty that seems far-fetched and makes the show hard to watch at times..Score: 4/5

Worst season of one of the greatest shows of all timeNot up to the standards of previous seasons, but still far better than anything else on TV (short of Breaking Bad). The creator worked for the Baltimore sun and clearly has a few bones to pick, so the media arc in this season is one of the most one dimensional of the series. Good is good and bad is bad without the complexity of the characters in the other settings. That said, this season wraps up other story lines well (although not always satisfactorily - the death of a major character is anti-climactic but appropriate). One of the best lines in the show near the end of the final episode: "That sentimental m f just cost us money!".Score: 4/5

The best show on T.V. ever. PERIOD !!By far the best, the realest show to ever grace my television in my life. Some people I hear complain about the foul language, or the adult content (nudity, & violence). Well guess what ? That is what makes this show so good ! Along with the excellent acting and directing and producing. Besides I hate to break it to the thin skinned people that must forget how to change the chanel ? In real life, especially in the real life of the streets, wheather it's Baltimore or any large city, People engage in and see violence, engage in and see prostitutes and sex, and people cuss and use foul language. If foul is what you choose to call it? I;d say it's just the language of the streets. I;m from Long Beach California, and it's very simular to Baltimore in about every way this show depicts. Start with season one and like me you wont be able to quit until the series is over..Score: 5/5
Great show, start with Season 1This is one of the best shows on television. But no one episode stands on its own, so start with the first season and watch them all. Yes, there is foul language and adult content. If you take offense, find a different show. But the show doesn't rely on these components to entertain. Plots are excellent, characters are believable, and nothing is predictable. This show easily ranks up there with Sopranos or Brotherhood..Score: 5/5

The WireHBO hit a home run with this. Having worn a badge for 26 years I can say this is the best police series ever made.

Wait for HDThis series, along with a few other HBO offerings, stands out as a true pearl amidst the vast wasteland of derivative, unrealistic and melodramatic TV. All technical aspects are superb, and the way in which the show gives life to the criminal, law enforcement and political subcultures is phenomenal. I would suggest waiting until the show is offered in HD to make your purchase, though - this show deserves it..Score: 5/5
The greatest TV show ever madeWhen I finished watching The Wire, I felt incredibly sad, because nothing would ever live up to the standard it set. This show is a must - but note, it's got a lot of foul language and violence in it. There has never been an HD version of The Wire; it was filmed in SD from the beginning, and it's part of David Simon's vision to leave it in SD. Don't wait!.Score: 5/5

Poor EndThe Wire is undoubtably a great show and as a whole fully deserves five stars however I feel this is a poor conclusion. It must be watched to conclude the previous four seasons, not watching the fifth is unthinkable, and yet, without giving anything away, The Wire has got away from itself. The main police plot is bordering on ridiculous, miles away from the realism established by previous series whilst the impressive array of established characters are now mostly living their own unconnected storylines. I appreciate it would be trite for all of the storylines to come together but Bubbles could be in his own spin off show based on the amount of interaction he has with other main characters like Greggs and McNulty. Omar also seems to pander to what fans of the show wanted him to be rather than what he was - a criminal stick up man, a thug who was interesting but in previous series' never in fact supposed to be rooted for. In conclusion The Wire remains essential viewing but I feel this was a poor way for the show to go out especially when it follows Season 4, perhaps the pinacle of The Wire's 5 years..Score: 3/5

Probably the best TV crime drama of all timeThe fifth and unfortunately final series of the deepest TV drama of the last 20 years. It's not the easiest watch in the world, it takes dedication, but, once you're into the world of The Wire - you are hooked. With an ensemble cast of characters that Dickens would have been proud of, this series delivers an all-encompassing examination of modern American urban life from the dealers on the corners to the politicians in the skyscrapers. Brilliant writing, acting and direction make this series a TV classic and it seems to be only due to the dumbed-down nature of modern TV programming that this amazing show is not more widely known..Score: 5/5
Bunk and McNulty for spin off ! - Spoilers below.I nearly cried when this finished. It was so moving, what an emotional rollercoaster! It should be complusory viewing in all our schools. Perhaps then kids might learn to stay away from drugs. When Dukie turned to drugs i felt like the i wanted to help him myself. Best parts? Bunk and McNulty saying M***er F***ker while solving a crime scene. And Bubbles continuely called McNulty, McNutty. Oh and Sergeant Jay Landsman, in every scene he was in. Sorry one last one, McNulty failing to tie any knots on his boat. Best Character? I thought Stringer Bell was pretty cool. Great acting throughout. Why this didn't win critical aclaim is beyond me. Its in the same league as the Sopranos if not better. BUY THIS, you won't be disappointed. When is the film version coming out?.Score: 5/5
