[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could it be that The Wire hasn’t aged well for today’s first time viewers? I’ve started it a few times and just can’t get interested. [/quote] I was hooked before the opening credits of the first episode. "If Snotboogie always stole the money, why'd you let him play?" "Got to. It's America, man." Killer. My husband hadn't seen it, either, and he LOVED it. (He did need me to translate some of the Bawlmorese, though.) Not only are there so many amazing characters, but it is really smart about institutions, and the way that institutions shape people's choices. And it's not just the police department or City Hall--the drug dealers also operate within a system of rules that they have limited power to shape, even those near the top of the pyramid. [/quote]
