The Wire, The Complete Series HD Download

A must have series worth every penny.

When I finished season 5 my immediate thought was "I could start again with Season 1 … nobody would know"! Have watched it 3 times and would happily do so again.

I watched this TV series when it was relatively unknown and was rarely heard of, let alone mentioned, here in the UK. Whilst I still believe that the fourth series is the peak (of the entire show), as a cohesive whole, it is by far and away the greatest drama I have had the pleasure of watching on TV, even after the likes of Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, The West Wing and my own personal favourite, Firefly. Although it takes some time to get going and you may feel slightly overwhelmed by the number of characters to begin with, the payoff for following the journey on the streets of Baltimore is quite unlike anything else.

The Wire is without a doubt one of the best TV shows ever made. I took my usual route of waiting until a show has finished airing, buying the box set and then powering through. Characters are well developed, the plot is intricate, everything is just pure class. iTunes pricing once again is a little off, but if you have not seen it, and you are looking for a cop/crime show, then nothing else really compares.

The greatest TV show of all time, plain and simple.

SERIOUSLY ITUNES? DOES YOUR GREED KNOW, NO BOUNDS?!

I got hooked after the first episode!! I'm thrilled I got the whole series package when it was on sale!! HBO outdid themselves!!! Why can't they make more shows like this?! Worth every penny! Heck, every dime!

Has to be the best series to date. Excellent writing, superb acting and a great but sad storyline.

What The Sopranos did for gangsters, The Wire did for cops. A proper crime epic, each season focusing on a different part of the city of Baltimore. Probably the best cast of characters in the medium of TV You have to watch this show.

Probably one of the best tv shows ever

The Wire is by far the best television show ever made. It may even be the best thing ever filmed. It ended 12 years ago and is still just as relevant today.

Hands down one of the best series on tv ever. Kind of slow and confusing the first few episodes but when it gets going it doesn’t stop. Easy to binge and rewatch. Always catch something new.

Period

This is another example of someone taking time to waste ours. The subject matter here is not what we should be focusing on at all. Too bad this made it to the screen.

Simply the best TV show of all time.....the writing, the characters, the setting all create a unique series that is the most realistic illustration of societal issues I have ever seen on television.

So real, it makes you understand so many things people just don't.

no doubt, this show is the best show I have ever seen, and I watched them all.

This is the bar that EVERY television series must be measured by, before or since it’s original airing. David Simon just understands story telling. This is the only series that I can watch over and over and discover and re-discover gems in every episode. It is peerless on EVERY level (writing, directing, acting, editing, etc.). I’ve come to envy those who are discovering this series for the first time as they have so much enrichment ahead of them. THIS SHOULD BE MANDATORY MATERIAL FOR EVERY CIVICS/SOCIAL STUDY COURSE IN AMERICA!

No need for a long review. The show is fantastic with a ton of great characters, outstanding acting and its very entertaining!

The show is so good, the president of the US met with the producer (David Simon) to discuss relevance to governance & policies. No other TV series could touch this one.... in a league of its' own.

So happy to finally be able to purchase the entire season in HD. its about to be a marathon viewing session.

The best tv series ever produced bar none.

If you think iTunes is to blame for any mistakes with this upgrade, you're pretty slow. Apple doesn't make the show or set the release dates dummies lol! Anyways, I finally get the opportunity to see one of the greatest shows to ever show on television!!

Without a doubt the best TV show of all time

This show is undoubtedly up there with the best tv shows of all time. Certainly not for everyone, but the writing is so incredible and realistic, you really become so immersed in the series. Highly recommended.

Dark. Gritty. Real. It’s the best.

There's nothing I can say that describes the sheer depth and genius of thid show's storytelling. An incredibly entertaining, vivid masterpiece about so many faccets of inner-city life in not only America but Western society. Such an insightful and enlightening experience. Enjoy! All in the game yo, all in the game.

This is a great series about wires. Each season contains a different colour wire. People die along the way trying to discover the colour of the wire. A must for wire fanatics!
