The Wire Season 1 Opening & Intro

The opening and intro to the first season of the excellent HBO show "The Wire", in which Detective McNulty learns about how America works.


When I uploaded the Season 2 intro over a year ago, I think it was one of about five videos that were on YouTube about The Wire. I'm happy to see all the recognition it's gotten since then!
Although I made this video the content is © HBO, if you enjoyed it please purchase the DVDs!

Best show ever

What an Intro, looking back it encompasses the biggest theme in the show, the failing of institutions. It may seem silly that they allowed snot to play craps every Friday night and he would steal the pot every night but do we not elect government officials every election and they screw us over, or trust in our bosses and still get fucked over. Great show

finished this show 2 weeks ago and already miss it. I made a big mistake finishing it.

[booker136]

can i see somewhere the full serie?

man this is incredible. Any other police type show before this had crime scenes so glamored up and hollywood with so much going on trying "captivate the attention of the viewer". Less is way more with The Wire. This murder scene displays Its run of the mill, ordinary baltimore murder and has an eerie relaxing atmosphere.

I just finished watching season 5 and I now im kinda sad that it's over, I watched all the 5 seasons in about 2-4 weeks and now I wish I could rewatch them without knowing what is going to happen.

Blacks at their finest :D

[suziecreamchease]

A police drama where good people trying to be loyal to each other and to what they hope is a good institution, but sometimes being corupted by it. Complex chacters and increasingly complex plot revealing the coruption coming from higher up and maybe the top. The only really sane character is a lesbian. Big boys games playing by big boys rules.

The BBC got their first with "Between the Lines" which has even more subtle comedy and something of a greek tragedy. If you like "The Wire" check it out.
