I think this great show deserves a mention. It got cancelled too. I guess people were too busy watching braindead shite like Lost.

I didn't even know there was a pgrogramme! I do remember all the girls at school reading the books..I'm sure there used to be a lot of giggling behind them as there must have been boy/girl things going on.

The Wire - Greatest TV Show ever FACT

If You have not seen it i highly recommend you watch it.

I got hooked when it first started in the States, and i never looked back.

If you appreciate a well written show, this is for you. There are so many great characters it is impossible to choose.

Idris Elba who plays John Luther in The BBC's Luther has a great part as Baltimore Drug Kingpin Stringer Bell.

One of the reasons i love it is, characters you would not expect to are killed off. As would be in real life no one is safe in the criminal world. Just because your a popular main character means nothing in this show.

Don't think anything will ever touch Lost or 24 for me because I watched them constantly as I was growing up.

But Game of Thrones is up there, and judging from the first 4 episodes, Person of Interest is going to be amazing aswell.

The Unit was really good too, but if it had just focussed on the actual Unit and had the wives as minor characters instead of supporting, it would have been a lot better than it actually was.
