The Wire
Has anyone else been watching this show? A friend of mine has been raving about it for a year, and he played me an episode a while back, and I thought it seemed well-executed, but nothing special.
Two days ago, though, he lent me the first season so I could watch from the beginning and I'm 2/3 of the way through the season now. I'm hooked. This is spellbinding. %90 of the characters are awesome (particularly Omar and Bubbles, at this point). I can't get enough of this shit, and I can't wait to watch the rest of this series. Please, no spoilers, I haven't even finished the first season. |

Re: The Wire
resurrecting an old post.............FX here in the UK has started showing the series from season one and will finish with the end of season 5 some time later this year. wow, what a show, love the way the storylines and characters build slowly over time. only mid way through season 2 at the moment and its compelling tv. fav scene so far has to be the Omar court apperance, was LOL and cheering
possibly the best show on tv at the moment, thought it heroes but was disappointed with the season one finale. also loving charlie jade, brillant mix of sci-fi and Private Investigation; can't believe it was made a few years ago by a Canadian/South African joint effort and wasn't picked up here or the US. still not been shown in the US apparently which is a real shame; and again only started on FX last year. OK so the plotlines take a while to develop and are not too easy to understand, but its one of those shows you have think about and it makes more sense with each show as things start to fall in place. always liked intelligent shows where its not clear whos good/bad or what their motives are |
