after i heard all this remakes of Tom Waits original song, i realized that at the end, original is the "worst" in this competition. My favorites are blind boys of alabama and steve earle.
seasons in order of best to least-best (doesnt make sense to use the word "worst" for such an awesome show): 3, 5, 1, 4, 2. and the theme songs: 3, 5, 1, 2, 4.
It didn't end prematurely, there was no more material for a sixth season. Although covering the influx of Hispanics to Baltimore was thought of there was no one with experience about the Latin American immigrants on the crew of The Wire. It's all in the extra material on the 5th season DVD's.
yea i agree i loved this show like no other and have come to accept the fact that television will never have a show this good again but look at it this way. The Wire went out on top as opposed to successful shows that keep coming back for the sake of having a show and in the process end up tarnishing the overall quality of the show..The Wire didnt do that...The Wire=Greatest thing to ever happen to the television set.
@cs00024 I don't agree it's the best, but it's not often you get a decent American produced drama and this one is brilliant. Makes up for all the crap that comes out from the states.
I did throughly enjoy it though, used to love sitting down and watching three episodes in a row late at night while I was writing work up etc. America won't make something as good as this again for a very very long time.
I love this show, and this is the best theme. I really wished the show would have went on to a 6th season, there are so many things it could have went into, I wished it would have went into the health care industry.

Good god this is a horrible version of way down in the hole. The versions used in the the first three seasons of the Wire were great, in season 4 it was tolerable, but this song was god awful.
All versions are great but TOM WAITS is ONE OF THE GREATEST musician/poets in USA and there would be no "down in the hole" without him. Go get yourself a copy of Frank's Wild Years and hear the master at work.

If you don't like this version.... And if you think this track is no good.. you do NOT like the show..So shut the fuck up you bloody idiot.. All are fitting in their various ways... Season 5 intro is amazing and so is the show
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The Wire is almost perfect The only thing I never liked was the intro...horriible choice of track. Apart from that, the greatest TV series I have ever seen.
Well I'm not all about the action, but I believe involving the newspaper in the story was a huge mistake. Season 5 also left out any chance of emotional attachment besides Bubbles story.
the newspaper was not supposed to be emotional, david was trying to make a statement about how the news is now corrupt and when people cant rely on it , then everyone suffers. I do think it could have been better, the scenes were boring until mid way
maaaybe, they would've been more interesting if there was a season 6 or more in order to develop the characters...but putting them in the best t.v. serie ever in the last season... i think it wasnt appropriate, i'd have preferred seing more scenes of randy or whatever
has anybody noticed that season 5 has the only opening where bodie broke that camera with a stone in colour?
that happened in black & white even in the "original" moment, in season 1
i would pick S5 opening the best, it's really catchy, but the season itself for me it was the worst, i mean, in general terms it maintained the quality achieved in theprevious seasons, but come on, the newsletter storylines were bullshit
i never gave a fuck about that lying reporter or the guy who didn't like him
I've been wanting to know the answer to that question myself! She doesn't appear in a previous season, so I imagine she's either a genuine newsreader and that was a genuine news clip. Or she's an actress pretending to be a news reader that they've just filmed for that clip. Either way she's hot!
A tiny bit repetitive, but the little sequences of Dee, Stringer, Frank etc mugshots gives you that sense of same old same old-ness that's almost the motto of this Season.
It's amazing that the five openings can be similar and yet feel so utterly different from each other. It makes me wish that they'd altered that opening for The Sopranos.
I think my fav is the season one opening though. That bass line gets to me. But the Tom Waits version has great editing. And the season four one is beautiful.
Very repetitive and boring. Tom Waits version was the best, with DoMaJe's second, except for the crappy guitar solo. Once again, for the kids, this is just my opinion, before you get all juvenile on me.
I really dig this version. I like the way it's pretty stripped down and also the fact that Steve Earle appears in the season also makes it pretty cool.
i dunno, i really like the Tom Waits version, its alot more guttural but i listened to this one first and for some reason i am just more fond of Steve Earle. i see where you are coming from tho
you cant top tom's version in season 2, and it really went well with the whole...stevadore, polish/greek dock theme....but steve earl is the man....n he was bubbles buddy when he was trying to get clean 1st or second season....this show is incredible
you are right about that, my friend...i've been a huge fan for 20 yrs, he just gets better and better...for an old guy! ha! he's 53, 2 years older than me!! God willing, he will be singing and i will be listening when we are both pushing 90....
Everybody who says The Wire should just stick to the corners and the drug game is missing the point of this show entirely. Their minds are severely limited.

the worst version was season 4, this is a close second. This is a blues song, and it doesn't sound right as anything else. It was great in seasons 1,2, and 3 but not in any of the others.
I didn't like the focus on the docks but didn't realize they were going for a different theme each season and not just a continuation of one storyline. It works better this way since we still get the drug trade stories mixed in with the docks/city hall/schools/media storylines.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
man they doing some stupid shit with the newspapers this season but other then that the wire is the dopest shit out rite now they need to make a new season after this 1
get the fuck outta here.....stupid shit... they bring something new each season, i suppose the docks from season 2 and city hall from season 3 was stupid shit too, I suppose they should just keep it about the drug game an all that.
Daniels was DEU Sargeant in the Eastern and was looked at by the local Feds and CID for possible skimming of cash off of drug busts. No suspicions were ever followed up with arrests or convictions. This was first alluded to by Agent Fitzhugh to McNulty when McNulty went to the feds to ask for surveillance equipment.
There's no Stringer since there were never any crime scene/post-mortem pictures taken of him (that we saw), nor were there any pictures taken of Stringer by himself that got posted to the board. All that aside, this ties with S1 as the best opening credits.
wrong I just saw season 3 and when there is an x on stringer's solo stand alone picture. Now I kno he doesn't have a prison pic(at least I think so). But he definitely had solo pic which I thought they should've used over wee bey, only flaw of this otherwise great intro
That aint slim charles on the that Omar got his gun on thats one of Marlo's people Omar Shot him in the Leg with a Pump Shot Gun and Omar is Vicious in season 5 but he's emotional and unstable he even walk funny I dont know why I guess its from all that robin and killing people living the bad life will do that to you
aww man this intro is so sick. hands down the best one yet. that shot of slim charles on the floor makes me so curious because you can't tell if he got shot or not. i saw a clip and thats where omar busts in on him.
after i heard all this remakes of Tom Waits original song, i realized that at the end, original is the "worst" in this competition. My favorites are blind boys of alabama and steve earle.

wrong I just saw season 3 and when there is an x on stringer's solo stand alone picture. Now I kno he doesn't have a prison pic(at least I think so). But he definitely had solo pic which I thought they should've used over wee bey, only flaw of this otherwise great intro

Totally, this is my absolute favorite! And I'm really feeling the media theme for this season, probably my second favorite season to season 4.

Is this worse than the season two intro? I didn't care for that one too much. This one is kind of bland.

Oww Me to. it sounds like carcetti is singing this. me no likely.
but i mean the first ep. was garbage, too slow. so maybe the theme will grow on us, yea? I Think Season 3 Was THE BEST SEASON, With BEST THEME SONG XD
CamaRo0sa 4 years ago
LOL! Yes, it does sound like Carcetti singing! Just like the season one intro sounds like Andre Royo (Bubbles) singing!

aww man this intro is so sick. hands down the best one yet. that shot of slim charles on the floor makes me so curious because you can't tell if he got shot or not. i saw a clip and thats where omar busts in on him.

I like the way the creators have tied characters like Wallace and Frank Sobotka into the credits. Gives the feeling of everything tying together.
