It sucks that you wouldn't watch it because its about drugs (or Baltimore).

I used to refuse to watch Dexter because it was about a Serial Killer and a buddy of mine refuses to watch Breaking Bad because according to him it "Glorifies Meth."

Well while these shows are about those things, they really aren't. They are about the characters. The characters are great in all of these, especially The Wire.

If you decide not to watch it you are really missing out.

If you currently have or ever get Netflix, I would recommend renting the first season just to try it out. Its only 12 episodes.

I just don't have any desire to watch much television (or DVDs). If it were about something I was actually interested in, I might, but not that.

It's the best show ever to air on television. You are missing out on perhaps the greatest work of art of a generation.

Are all the seasons available on netflix? sounds like my kind of show but if I can watch it all on Netflix I won't bother buying it.

American citizens especially; The Wire is the richest, most comprehensive look at urbanity and the American city ever produced. I really think that every American owes it to themselves to watch it.

I'm just 2 seasons into it and the depth of the show is already beyond any depth I have ever seen. It's truly astonishing.
