(http://www.slashfilm.com/wp/wp-content/images/the_wire.jpg)
In this week’s special episode of the /Filmcast, Dave, Devindra, and Adam spend over 3 hours discussing one of the greatest cultural works of our time, The Wire. Special guests and TV critics Alan Sepinwall and Myles McNutt join us from their respective and wonderful blogs. The first hour is a general discussion about The Wire, its themes, and its impact, and is meant for general audiences including those unfamiliar with the show. The last two hours are a detailed dissection of each individual season (with sound clips). The entire series of The Wire came out on DVD this week. Buy it now at the insanely low price of $135 (I remember when they ued to be $70 each!)

Yea I would say those two.
I would rank it this way
1. SE 3
2. SE 4
3. SE 1
4. SE 2
5. SE 5
Still, all five seasons beat anything else made for tv.

You may find it slow. The things that make The Wire slow is what make it so good.

I'm on the 3rd episode and already hooked.
Good show.

The Wire is definately not something you can just pick up in the middle and fully appreciate. It really takes a commitment. You don't see that with many shows.
-
Over the holidays I re-watched season 2, somehow I've come to appreciate it. I would still rank season 5 as the worst of the 5 seasons.
Season 2 has some good depth even with the annoying Ziggy.
-
a funny clip with Carver and Herc from Season 2
hahah - his name is head ...
-
I've watched the first three episodes. Looks pretty good so far. Seems a bit complex.

It is. Small details often lead to major plot developments. It's best if you are able to pause it if you have to get up.

I've seen seven episodes. This series is very good. :D
The Sopranos is still numero uno for me though. :D
