The Wire is one of the best shows on TV. I'm not one to bestow greatness on anything easily, but the Wire lives up to the claim as one of the best ever.

About The Show
Drama which follows police officers in Baltimore as they tackle a single drugs-and-murder crime investigation case per season. Season one depicted the national drug war through the microcosm of a West Baltimore housing project. Season two chronicled the deindustrialization of America, focusing on the toil of a longshoreman's union to survive in an ever changing economic terrain. In the third season, Baltimore's political leaders played a key role in the examination of reform and the problems confronting this post-industrial city. Season 4 looks at a quartet of inner city boys dealing with the harsh realities of their environment and the educational system.Drama which follows police officers in Baltimore as they tackle a single drugs-and-murder crime investigation case per season.
