As The A.V. Club discovered, there's an upside to having much of your perception of Baltimore come from The Wire: The city is a lot nicer than you'd expect. Yes, we understood on a realistic level that Baltimore wasn't just blocks upon blocks of Hamsterdam, but we were a little surprised by how charming Fells Point was when we arrived to meet Wire location scout Eric Bannat. Of course, right in the middle of Fells Point is the run-down building that was the headquarters for Homicide: Life On The Street. (Apparently it's being turned into a hotel.) It has a giant plaque out front to commemorate the show.

  • The Onions website is diverse, so is their youtube channel. Get over it.

  • I don't like Pop Pilgims. Yet, I don't bitch and whine about it. That's because I have two functioning balls. Grow some too!

  • hehehe i remember one time they was filming in my neighborhood

    when i was kid. i got outta of school early for some reason.

    anyway they was doing a scene where the police was busting down a door.

    i walk up to my house with was about door apart from the scene,

    knocked on the door yelling "GRANDMA LET ME IN"!

  • Why do I have to watch a fiat commercial before, when this whole video series is basically a fiat commercial?

  • They have a AV Club channel why do they keep uploading this?

  • I just voted this one down. I subscribed to a satire channel, not to a pop-culture channel.

  • Omar comin'!

  • i dislike that lil red car

  • What is the song they have playing at the end x.x someone tell me DD:

  • I'm so glad they did this. I live right next to Baltimore and its not NEARLY as fucking bad as its portrayed.

  • Wait, is this real?
