this show was liked by white people because it showed black people going to jail all the time. Thats why it lasted so long. but in real life this shit an't happen noi more.
@Zari7000 This white person liked it because there were good people in every single walk of life -- hoppers, dealers, cops, lawyers, and there were corrupt people in every walk of life. And people grew and changed. Bodie was an amazing character, watching him grow from season 1 to 5. And Ellis Carver. And Poot. The ones who couldn't grow/change destroyed themselves -- McNulty, Bell, Barksdale, Stanfield. And there were no happy clappy bullshit endings.
Love for David Simon, Ed Burns & anything they back creatively. Finished watching their miniseries Generation Kill. Different but excellent. I want to see Treme now, but too broke for cable, can only afford Netflix.
Damn how could the Best Show EVER come to an end!! WTF!!! Why do shows end??? I'm more upset then I was when Fresh Prince ended! Bring back the Wire at least 30 more seasons...
It ended as the perfect show. If the simpsons had ended back at what? season 8, 9.. maybe you could have said the same about that show. Instead that's had a shiteload of uninteresting dull episodes
dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins when ur done press f6 nd ur crush's name wll appear on the screen n big letters ths is so scary cuz it actully wrks ths really wrks
I'm intereseted to know of any show, ever, that came close to it? People say it's been the best show in the last 10, 20 years. Maybe I'm too young but I don't know of any show that compare
In regards to network television (ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC), the best --- no, the ONLY --- programme with an ensemble cast that deserves a mention in the same breath as The Wire was arguably Hill Street Blues. But, you have to keep in mind that that was on network TV, not cable like The Wire. So, they were somewhat limited and restricted by comparison. But, the acting and writing were both the best of anything else that was on network TV during its' run.
I've always wondered why Norris gets so much love. He's a Rudy pal who came here and used city resources to get down with several women, for which he was fired. Guess in this city that makes you a folk hero.
The wire run its course I mean the story was shot from different perspective including police, drug lords, schooling, politics and media, nothing else left but to bring the story to conclusion
yeah, someone asked david simon (the creator) a few years ago how long the show would last and he said "we know how to end it at 5 seasons" so thankfully the show got the full run it deserved
But I also heard that if HBO let David do another season (6) he was going to talk about the Hispanic population increase. Guess it never happened, suck too this is the one of the best shows HANDS DOWN! I wonder how Davids other shows will turn out. He's got a new one I believe it will be on HBO
He said that he didn't know enough about the Hispanics to do a whole season but thats where he would of had to go with it. I also hope that Simon has another show on HBO because The Wire was all HBO had left
i want to season6!!!
