Just finished watching ''The Wire''

5th July 2010, 11:33 AM

Now what the hell do I do?

I have bought The Sopranos, Garth Marangi and Shameless boxsets so I think one of those will be next.

I didnt want to post any Wire spoilers but what an amazing show! First 3 series' are best but the other 2 are still of a high standard.

Series 4 is incredible.

Did you ever watch The Corner? Generation Kill is pretty good too.

Its very underated tbf, as it followed series 3 which imo is the greatest tv ever! And didnt really seem to dip much.

Yep http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001Q3M3R...SIN=B001Q3M3R8

Not as good as The Wire, but definitely worth a watch. Loads of the same actors in it.

I love the way that when it ends, everything has come full circle. Despite the political, media, rouge cop, rival gang efforts and all the money that has been spent not one thing has been changed...

Michael the new Omar, Duquan the new Bubbs, Marlow unable/not wanting to 'get out' just like Avon before him....

Best final episode of any TV show ever.

If you are going to watch the corner I recommend you read the book first.
I really enjoyed. It's only about £3 from HMV.

That was possibly the greatest writing ever! It was almost a prequel and a sequel within an original show.
