Conrad Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 So I've finally just completed the fifth and final season of HBO's The Wire. I was up to date with every other show on the planet, Prison Break, Lost, Heroes etc and was on the lookout for something new. I then discovered The Wire A few weeks back I downloaded the first season and have been obsessed since. IMO this beats any other show to come out of America in a decade, totally awesome! Takes a season to get going but well worth watching. If you want some decent TV then start downloading.... Still need convincing?

JamesG Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Awesome reviews! I'll definitely get this when I've finished Prison Break - which is the best show I've ever seen (better than Lost!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiceRocket Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've heard good things about this show so I'll buy the whole lot for the winter viewing when it's usually raining a lot (). PRISON BREAK Okay, so we all know this show has not so much jumped the shark as leapt on its back and ridden it rodeo-style across the ocean, but there was a time when this was guilty pleasure in its purest form. The first season (the one which was actually set in a prison) found the saintly Michael Schofield covering himself in handy tattoos and incarcerated in the same chokey as his death row-sentenced brother. Amazingly, it lived up to the completely ridiculous premise, so it's a shame that the second and third seasons took the institutionalized concept out of its comfort zone. BTW season 4 of Prison Break is back on Sky One on September 2nd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
