Comments on: The Wire http://forge.ironrealms.com/2008/01/06/the-wire/ A blog on virtual worlds, games, and digital content, from Matt Mihaly Fri, 22 Aug 2008 02:29:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.3 by: Anna http://forge.ironrealms.com/2008/01/06/the-wire/#comment-54492 Fri, 07 Mar 2008 16:28:08 +0000 http://forge.ironrealms.com/2008/01/06/the-wire/#comment-54492 In recognizing the overall loss of such a great show, I started seeking out any videos I could find about The Wire. I found a great one where David Simon talks about the affections he feels for Baltimore and how the city has influenced his work. Check out the video http://www.visitmybaltimore.com/video/449/ OR See More Baltimore Videos at <a href="http://www.visitmybaltimore.com" rel="nofollow">www.visitmybaltimore.com</a> In recognizing the overall loss of such a great show, I started seeking out any videos I could find about The Wire.

It will only frustrate you and consume you as you endure long periods of waiting for new seasons. Wait for a few years until the entire show is done, then you can get through it all at once.

With the freaking writers strike I do believe The Shield will be the next tv series we Netflix after we're done watching Lost (which I'm enjoying a lot more than I thought I would, though only on season 1 still).

I'm unconvinced it will beat out The Shield for a place in my heart, but since The Shield only gets new episodes at the rate of about 3 per year, I'll have to broaden my horizons. BTW, The Shield is the first police drama I've enjoyed-- I highly recommend checking it out.

Yea, I'd add more, but that pretty much sums it up. Check out The Corner, and I bet you already have. I love the Wire. Yea, I’d add more, but that pretty much sums it up.
