“The Wire” is quite possibly the greatest television show ever. Thank you very much for this.

I am one of two people alive who have never seen this show. But I have heard absolutely NOTHING but good things about it. Thanks for this; it will work as a perfect study guide for those of us looking to enter television show development.
