Reviews
Washington Post - The absence of gimmickry and the presence of respect for the story and the audience give THE WIRE organic advantages over nearly all other TV dramas, whether they deal with cops and crime or birds and bees., AV Club - Among the many things that separate THE WIRE from other TV dramas is the way that creator David Simon eases into a season., Variety - Based on the seven episodes previewed, it's every bit as cynical, riveting and brilliant as the four flights that preceded it - a searing look at the decay of a major American city that puts most of what's on television to shame., New York Times - It is one of the most intimate and alarming depictions of urban America on television, and yet it's an invigorating and even exhilarating experience, each season a new HARRY POTTER book for adults.

    Why the Wire? Read on...

    This series fully deserves the hype it has generated. The action is pacey and humourously insightful. I particularly appreciated the wisdom of reflecting street life in such a way that characters on both sides of the tracks are products of their environment and life chances rather than good guys and bad guys. The depth of characterisation draws the viewer into a relationship with the dealer, the cop, the corner boys in a way that holds and demands your full attention and makes a nonesense out of standard stereotypes. This is seriously good drama. It will challenge and enthral, shock and surprise. I fully recommend it.

    Time and again I've been told The Wire has no equal and how right they were

    Time and again I've been told The Wire has no equal and how right they were. Without question the best show on a TV.

    I would heartily advocate this series as one of the best i have seen

    I bought this as had heard reviews about it but never had chance to watch- so bought the full set and had a wirefest over a couple of weeks. I was very impressed with the plotlines, the comedy, the catchphrases and love the characters. I could not wait as one season finished to get to the next, it never got stale....and my only regret is that there are no more- sigh!
