    Default The Wire

    Watched the second and last seasons, kept up with it. Have to say, with tonight's final episode, this show is really good.

    Like great in fact. Very poignant, unflinching view of how the lowest of streets affects the greatest of office, and vice versa. Everybody's actions become intertwined, and we are given a view of police, schools, the street, the mayor's office, and the media operate and engage with one another.

    Great series.
    But mark me well; Religion is my name;
    An angel once: but now a fury grown,
    Too often talked of, but too little known.

    Best show on television, by far (or at least it was- it's done with now.)
    Quite possibly the best show in the history of television.

    Really sweet show. Gotta love the realism. Omar Little was my favorite character.

    It really is a great show. I have been following it since the first season. And every season it gets better and more intense as plots develop and former plots intertwine.

    HBO always has amazing shows. Sopranos, Deadwood, The Wire, Rome
    Good stuff!
