So many people hate on Season 2. In fact it is by far THE best season of the epic series! At first...I was like "wtf". Watched it to the end as it originally aired, and was floored. Amazing season. Watched the whole series.....a few times since. Season 2 is a masterpiece. God I miss this show.
some of you would live through me then lock me up and throw away the key
Its like this song was written for The Wire. The police (McNulty especially) develope a certain affinity with the criminals theyre chasing. He lives through Stringer; chasing him keeps McNulty going, its the centre of his life.
Reminds me of 70s NYC Vandal Squad: they were meant to catch graffiti artists, so had to see their paintings, in the end they actually liked some of it but stil had to catch those responsible
Steve Eagle --- nice! Can't believe I didn't recognize Steve Earle until the series was over .... nice choice having him do this song for the season finale. Just another awesome thing about "The Wire"

@BigJames666 I think its probably the best TV series ever made. Although 'Twin Peaks' is a very close second. Dunno if you've seen that : ))

@alfonz1986 i have seen it, its a good watch, i prefered the shield to the peaks to be honest

@alfonz1986 Same here. The Wire is my favourite show ever but Twin Peaks is definitley second
