You've posted the last three entries to this thread Monroe... Bless you I felt obliged to contribute.

The Wire has been around for ages, I always wondered what was taking everyone so long to enjoy it.

Woah, just been reading the piece in yesterdays Telegraph mag about David Simon, the creator of the Wire and thinking i must take the time to see this (and read his books). Then come on TEF and what's got bumpage? Begone, get out of my head TEF mind-suckers!

Charlie Brooker say the Wire is ace. That's good enough for me. One day I'll get around to watching it.

I am one episode away from the end of series 5, which will be the very last episode.

It's all getting a bit too much for me. Sob.

That is a wonderful opening scene. Two gunslingers talking about their work..

One day, when I get paid I'm gonna get me a season 5. As compensation I'm going through 3 again. Shiiiiiiiiiiit it is still  so very good.

Oh David Simon's book - Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets - which became the brilliant Homicide: Life On The Street has finally been published in Britain. It's all about Simon's time with the Balmer Police and much of The Wire is taken directly from the cases and characters in it.

I'm waiting for the 1-5 Boxset to be released on December, 8. I shall exploit my 30% discount at work... unless I can get it cheaper online of course.

Season 5 finale is on right now, and I've only gone and missed the first 15 minutes haven't I. What a twat.

FX+ it is then.

Oh look there's a new Cadbury's Gorilla Drummer advert on, but this time it's to Total Eclipse of the Heart
