The Wire = Overrated

[elz]

This is how I would rank the seasons 1-4.

Season 3 > Season 1 > Season 4 > Season 2

With the way Season 5 has gone thus far, my final rank would probably have Season 5 in between Season 1 and 4.

me it's

Season 1
Season 4 and this is tough cuz season 4 is just grimey
Season 3
and Season 2 This could been better but I guess they had to should how they got their connect!

So I see it's a show I just can't start watching from anywhere,m I gotta catch the whole series. So does Season 1, ect still come on HBO from time to time?

If you have HBO on Demand, you probably could?

If you have the cash, I'd suggest just buying all the series on DVD.

I love The Wire show. At first I thought it was alright but I watch the Season 1st Dvds set that I borrow from my brother then watch the whole seasons and ....I LOVE IT.

Download them. Netflix. Buy the DVD Set or borrow it if you can. Library has it also.

C'mon this is not the type of TV series where you can just pick one episode and expect to know what is going on. This ain't like Full House or anything. You HAVE to start from Season 1, Episode 1 and move from there. First time I watched it, I didn't feel the first episode. Didn't try watching it again until about 6 months later. I love it that time. I was WTF was I thinking sleeping on this for so long. Easily one of the best shows on TV. So sad that this is the last season.

Like everyone has already said, it needs to be watched from the 1st season to get what is going on and to get used to the style of the show.

another great show - Dexter.

[Smokee]

its kind of slow and you have to know the characters so its going to take a few episodes to really get into....

[highwhey]

So you watched a random episode from a tv series and you were disappointed bc you were lost? c'mon kizzle

L.Kizzle=dumb as fuck

[Smoke117]

Who the hell watches a random episode from a show like The Wire than makes a conclusion of the entire series based off that? This isn't law and order...you can't just randomly jump into it.

[Raymone]

He's right though. Doesn't hold a candle to The Sopranos.
