ANYONE that didn't vote for The Wire obviously hasn't seen the wire. Had it been on any other network but HBO and it was on regular TV it would of dominated awards, etc... didn't get as much recognition because it was an HBO program.. Google search it Top Ten Shows of 2000s 9/10 websites have The Wire as number one. Watch it people it is a great show and really really goes in depth about American Politics and what not and crime.. It is also realistic not like CSI or something!
