Best Cop Show Ever !

In the running for just best drama.

Much better than the Sopranos.

I could go back and watch season 1-4 like today. Season 5 I didn't like as much (still great) and I saw fairly recently so maybe not.

yeah my mate loaned me the boxsets and I was hooked, watched them all in
a couple of weeks, another series I loved was OZ

I'm devastated that the Wire has now finished. A gritty and cynical depiction of the rich tapestry of urban Baltimore life, all interconnected. The best TV show ever made and, unusually for a US show, the moral seemed to be that there are no good guys or bad guys - everyone's a mix of the two ...... and life is seldom fair. Fantastic.

You know as much as I like HBO series I have yet to see a single episode of this. I have heard so many good things about it. I really need to take the time and watch it.

I have loved so many of those HBO shows the Sopranos, Generation Kill, Entourage, OZ.

Another new one thats pretty funny is Hung anyone been watching that?

....personally I think 'Homicide: Life on The Streets' was much better than The Wire, but The Wire is still very good

Lyle, you must be on that Marion Barry shit to think that, the first 2 series of Homicide were alright, but The Wire is just on a different level as a TV show. Hell, for my money it sets a completely different bar in TV drama.

Probably one of the few shows that people of all races, classes & across the political spectrum can enjoy, because basically everyone has some decency to them, whilst also being a complete bastard.

Well, except Major Rawls, Valchek & Clay Davis. They're just bastards.
