Thumbs up The Wire

Does anybody here watch this show? I have never watched a television show that is more riveting. It is phenomenal, the story lines are extremely realistic and the characters are top notch.

I kept hearing my friends rave about it, but at the time I was barely keeping up with the Sopranos. Suffice it to say in the last 2 months I have watched the first 4 seasons and cannot wait for the fifth to start this month on HBO. Every night I looked forward to banging out a couple episodes after my wife and the baby went to sleep.

I never tout television... but if you are looking for a great series to get involved in this is a no-brainer.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

I saw episode 1 of the 1st season on demand. Did not turn the TV off for almost 7 hours. Its the most underrated show on TV.

The first show of season 5 is what you are talking about right Chef?
