    Just started watching the Wire. I'm on season 2

    Why didn't this show win a truck load of Emmys?

    Michael K Williams was on a rerun of a local public affairs show this past weekend and it made me sad again that he's gone. For auld times sake

    Same reason Homicide: Life on the Streets didn't either. David Simon's own curse of sorts.

    There's so much going on in every episode, in every season. I'm starting season five next weekend. I'll be sad to see the end of it.
    When I first started to watch The Wire one of my friends said she was jealous of me because I was seeing it for the first time with no expectations.
    Now I know why she said that.
