This show has got me. Perhaps one of the most realistic shows I've seen. Brutal at times.

I think it's one of the best programs ever on television. It's riveting. I've seen seasons 1-3 but haven't seen 4 since I don't have HBO.

I'll have to watch it. Never saw The Wire but I was a big Sopranos, Deadwood, Band of Brothers, and Rome fan.

Me too.

After watching all those I finally tried The Wire. I watched the entire 4th season on On Demand in two days.

The key is you have to watch it in sequence. If you try to watch, for example, season 2 without having seen season 1, it will not make any sense.

I like it because the legal stuff is much more realistic than on any other show I've seen. The political maneuvering is also very interesting.

I love the political stuff too!!!
