The Wire TV Series

[Habib]

^ That's a great scene too. :lol:

Even though I've only seen the first season. There is a scene where McNulty and his partner are investigating a scene of the woman that DeAngelo shot. They say a certain cuss word about 25 times and that scene made me laugh so hard.

 

I also loved Omar's character. Just when he's whistling when he's rocking that shotty is hilarious.

That's an excellent scene as well.

Anyone know if they are on Netflix? I've heard nothing but good things. Usually with things like this if I like it, I'll watch it all the way thru til I'm done with little interrupting (aside from important things like work, toilet and whatnot).

Best television series ever.

 

I would also agree, at least in my top 3 series of all time.

It is not. It is on HBOgo though.

I just recently finished watching the series myself... It's great all the way through, and I don't disagree with FKYW that it's the best show I've ever seen.

 

5 was weaker, but still better than most shows.

Grantland has a Wire bracket going on right now that is pretty cool. I'd go check it out if you have finished the series. If not, you might want to avoid it as there are spoilers.

Also, Andy Greenwald and Chuck Klosterman taped a podcast about the bracket. Really good stuff. Check it out here:

I don't know. I have HBO and Directv so I was good to go as soon as I downloaded the app. I'm on episode 3 already. As long as my workday stays light I should get through another 2 episodes before 5.

I think you have to be an HBO subscriber.

You do and not every cable company allows it.

I disagreed with some of the seeding, and one of my favorite characters missed out entirely. I was displeased.
