All in all, this series is great fun. What a way for a series to go out. I was wondering, What does it take to become an officer of The creative and honest mind of the writers is put on the screen with a quality job of directing. Take it light but take it. To me, the climactic conclusion of the show happened in S5E9 and E10 was more of the epilogue, allowing us to digest what happened and gain some insight on where things are headed for the city. I just finished the final episode of The Wire. I must comment on the general disappointment around season 5 though: I too was bored by the whole Baltimore Sun room and cast. The editing becomes more choppy, inserting 1-2 second scenes in the middle of something else. I can dream sometimes, right? Just depressing the way it wallows in the depravity of the serial killers and hits you over the head with it. I worked at a small, local tabloid, before entering J-school, and rapidly became frustrated as I was lectured on hooks and handles. Cmon, its okay to smile. People who are innocent are very rude to the police and refuse to co-operate for no apparent reason. The more honest assessment is that it doesnt matter where I stand, or where Ed Burn stands, or what I think. Thats why Im here. So lets happily concede that all criticism stands and get to the real fun. Uncensored. There were three full-length movies: "The Mermaid's Singing", "Shadows Rising", and "Justice Painted Blind". It had been on my entertainment backlog since 2002 Id got hold of the first season before it had been shown in the UK at all being a quality TV (and I apologize for using this sensitive word considering the context of various storylines) junkie, but for various reasonsI was deferring gratification if you will. Im so glad I got to bear witness to it, even if I was late. So fuck what I said. We certainly expected more attention from the media. I see commentary all the time where the seasons are ranked and there seems to be a common thread. That said, I thank you for the bitter pill. McNulty, Frank Sobotka, Carcetti (at least in season 3), Colvin and Prez). When one actor leaves a show and is replaced. But all the endings mean something and other endings would have been the wrong ones. And yes, in real life, there wasnt much written about such in my city. but I believe even his murder would have been more satisfying for viewers who were waiting for his comeuppance. I was lucky enough to have a copy taped from BBC America (cheers, Mom!) I fucking love this show. Thank you for telling these stories. WebSeason 6. In the end, she asks for a transfer. He's quirky, he's a little odd, but he helps to provide a different, and intellectual insight into the killer's mind. Ive re-watched this entire series again recently with the HD release (probably my 4th or 5th time watching the entire series) and in many ways it gets better the more I watch it. WITB is a dark, gritty, British crime drama that most all will heartily enjoy.. should you like the genre. It was amazing television. It was especially poignant seeing all the since-deceased (or reformed, theres no way I could overlook or forget Dukie becoming Bubbles) characters roles being filled by the New Age.. But it went over my head, that the newspaper, completely missed every major story about what went on in the city. Journalism is and has been an absolute shambles in the UK since I was a kid in the 80s. And why would carcetti suddenly give them all the money? My husband watched this series on HBO, I must of been working. He displays tremendous potential; one can hope that he will continue to create performances that are filled with the humanity, compassion and insight that "Tony Hill" shows us. No one went near the theme; everyone stayed dead-center and literal, oblivious to the big-ass elephant in our mythical newsroom. Ive just completed my third viewing of the entire series. I love the WIRE Season 5 was great. Drugs were just an excuse to pursue their passion, because it is clear that wacking people is what they loved. Ultimately, thank you for such an epic drama! The people changed but the game remained exactly the same. WowIm emotionally drained. The 'genius' Dr, absentminded of course, to fulfill another clich, who comes across as being more in need of professional help than his patients. I feel better about missing the plot about The Baltimore Sun newspaper missing important stories, now I know that the pros missed it too. I loved the series. Why would he care about the homeless? "Wire in the Blood" is the story of Dr.Tony Hill (Robson Green), a slightly eccentric clinical psychologist who works part time with the police force of Bradford, England. He has a reputation of taking small seemingly unconnected facts puzzling them together and providing a profile for the police to follow. I started watching this show in series 1. Polygon Court hears the case for James Camerons alternate ending. The political corruption, the cronyism, the back-asswards views on racism which prevent all minorities from getting a real say in anything lest they be deemed racist- and most agonizingly, the completely screwball insanity that is the PG County school system is exactly like the way you depicted life in Baltimore. missing such a vital snap shot to the Barksdale case. I've enjoyed his first rate performances in two other series I've seen, and can't wait to see how his character's flirtation with D.I. Season 5 was tremendous, I can only assume the criticism comes from those who still believe that high standards of journalistic integrity are still the goal of the modern news room. I HOPE THEY COME OUT WITH MORE SEASONS!! I have an unanswered question about the ending and it appears as though there is (or should be) a sequel to this? Im proud to be from Home of the Wire I started college as a J-student and later moved to English. Like another commenter, I only noticed the Prop Joe story being missed/overshadowed by the Sun. For me, its all of a piece. I love the Hamsterdam plot. In an interview Robson Green said the phrase wire in the blood was taken to mean a genetic kink, something impure and unusual in the blood, that leads to the As it is, I argued, any good journalist will if he or she loves the business follow this story and wince at the stories systematically missed, the undiscovered and unreported tales of the city known to viewers for four seasons. Grim. The finale was weak/unsatisfying: I feel that the people who express this opinion dont quite understand the type of storytelling that you were going for. It features a crime-weary psychotherapist who is part profiler, part detective, part forensics expert. I feel as if I understand it better and see more with each viewing. Jack and Liz. A mayor was elected governor while his police commanders made aggravated assaults and robberies disappear. Awards And unsubtle. The acting is exceptional. User Ratings To the people saying he was stupid for returning to Baltimore in the first place: Marlo used the perfect bait. Daniels is probably the best example of this, but to a lesser extent so is Freamon, whose corrupted (by definition of the law) actions lead to retirement from the police force. I thought this was a really interesting article, especially in the context of the current pandemic which is hitting local papers the hardest. Unlike most shows, which run at 45 minutes per episode, Wire in the Blood runs at 90 minutes per episode. Given the immense detail used in the stories, the show simply wouldn't work with shorter episodes. The series was cancelled in 2009 due to ITV's financial troubles. You want to suggest that the creator of the project has his nose in the air for being interested in the matter at all, and that you have some insight into his temperament? And while I tell everyone who will listen that this is the best show ever made I do feel Season 5 had some hokey yet prominent elements. But if I dont play how can I and everyone else fix the rules? David SImon, I dont understand why you wrote this. And they covered more ground, and they knew the terrain in a way that they no longer do. There's also a lot of blurry camera work that is meant to show the violent murders but does tend to make one rather seasick! Drug wars, territorial disputes, and the assassination of the citys largest drug importer manage to produce a brief inside the metro section that refers only to the slaying of a second-hand appliance store owner. But no, show dont tell is the rule. Flagg?? but please dont make anymore. I wondered what you thought of new local titles which seek subscriptions from the community as well as community involvement in their storytelling. I was born with scoop mentality and its never left me. Couldnt resist, sorry. When we were beating the story out, Bill Zorzi wondered whether in the final episode it might be necessary for Gus Haynes to vocalize the theme, to turn to Alma or Luxenberg or some other character and say, Were so thin, and we waste what little resources we have left on the wrong things. For now I will just pass. Omar and Prop Joe were the last good guys among the bad guys and both of them had to go down, while Snoop the Psycho Bitch who deserved at least a few weeks of good torture gets off easy with a single shot to the head. Anyway, remember that Colvins 14% were clean numbers (he didnt juke the stats) so 14% is a large increase if you look at it that way. If season five didnt work for you, then it didnt work for you. Jobson develops in future episodes. No. This show, its impact, the things its talked about directly and indirectly (as shown above) has along with all that impacted me, and I feel like Ive got enough influence from this show alone to myself sit down and write like Ive been wanting to do, but not just any writing, but writing thats thoughtful as well as entertaining, and also writing that matters. It is a heart trending, visceral, honest portrayal of a modern city. In series 1-3, Hermione Norris played Detective Inspecter/Chief Inspecter Carol Jordan of Bradford CID, who managed to rein Tony's scattered abilities and make sense of them. David, I just wanted to take a brief moment (6 years later) to thank you for both an amazing show and this write up of your thoughts and insights into S5. The pictures of his cleaned up corners and happy citizens as a result of Hamsterdam would suggest that the drop was much larger than that 14%. There was just increasingly natural interplay between them that made viewing more diverse and interesting (e.g. In the confrontation that follows, Adam shows him the photographs he took But if we give upthen what? I just marathoned the entire series in less than 2 weeks (okay, so Im unemployed & have the time on my hands) and now I see why The Wire got so much acclaim in its day. (And yes, I got the theme. In one of the best scenes of the series, Web2. Maybe I prefer more violent things. I had only heard of it but didnt know it was the drug I needed in my life to actively engage in social discussions the way you do so well in this series. I was leaning more towards something karmic, but its clear that many of the characters did not get what was coming to them. Some shameful shit right there. All Rights Reserved. The Jordan/Fielding character played a large part. The chemistry between Hill and D.I. I recently watched The Wire for the first time this year, and since have done my best to find critical analyses and articles that could help meaningfully fill the void left after the show. 6 Apr. I came late to The Wire, having heard many great things about it from others over the years. Wire in the Blood is one of the most important and valuable series ever produced for television. I was reading The Stand at the time I posted that response. Maybe its honest. It is our not insignificant loss that more shows weren't filmed. I learned more from two weeks of practical work, than an entire year of overpaid theory, and eventually switched to English, because I couldnt stand a style that, to me, was tantamount to lying. Each season building toward a singular, connected argument. Imagine all the fun they could have conflicting professionally, not to mention romantically, vying for Jobson's attention and favors! David Simon, a reporter for the Baltimore Sun for thirteen years, is the executive producer of HBOs The Wire. This is but the latest example of Web2. The reason I loved the Wire was because it felt REAL. Really, someone should have put it to Herc, you have to admit. That was thematic and no one commented on the argument, which I found disappointing. Because the thing I cant leave alone, the thing that makes me giddy as a schoolgirl is this: Whatever else I am a traitorous apostate to newsprint, the angriest hack in television, a kicker of small dogs you must acknowledge that I am now, also, the newly crowded King of Meta. -- if you're a Robson Green fan, it's a fantastic showcase for his acting. The case was based on a wealth of curruption and illegal detective work and the need for self-preservation could easily allow for a deal to be made. I found this series especially delightful because Robson Green's character lives within the confines of his own mind. Wow, I cant believe that went over my head too David. Im vaguely reminded of the backlash we (I) felt when Seinfeld came to an end, having been blinded to what we were ignoring for so long that the hyper-reality we were caught up in seemed like the be-all, end-all. If I didnt know the show was set in Baltimore it just as easily could have been set in Lanham, Capitol Heights, District Heights, Temple Hills, Forestville. They are gradually won over. I just recently bought the Blu-ray box set as well, just to have it in both editions and to see the reunion at the Paley Center. Prayer of the Bone. This is really a two part TV series.. the first three seasons with Green and Norris.. bit.ly/1780gxl .. in the leads, and the second three with Green and Lahbib.. bit.ly/13Pgcqi .. OK so Rawls put him on a boat for while. Lowry got it, and tellingly, he used to work for theL.A. Timesbut is now a step or two removed from a metropolitan daily, writing forVariety. A few months ago I decided to give it a go and, as you can imagine, I fell in love. Even though I dont like those gay fags fuckin each other but thats the world we live in so no problems. Good series wish could of been another series though! I was watching for the Barksdale arc and didnt know how important season two was in the overall visual novel. While very formula driven and somewhat unbelievable at times, particularly with the characters often going it alone to catch the bad guys, it is entertaining and very "bingeworthy"! Just the slow motion walk through of him seeing his operation in action, and the perfect timing of Polk (or Mahone?) Beautiful. Enter DI Alex Fielding, Simone Lahbib. In Baltimore, where over the last twenty years Times Mirror and the Tribune Company have combined to reduce the newsroom by forty percent, all of the above stories pretty much happened. I have no idea how you were able to pick one quote out of the whole episode, to show at the beginning because almost every line is of substance. There wasnt a single interesting person in that arc, except maybe the copy editor championing integrity at all costs. Nothing against Robson himself but his character annoys me. But the rest of you blessed, scribbling souls? With no consequences for either, even Herc the Assclown who monumentally fucked up every single case he was put on? I do honestly feel that way about the ending but telling you that personally (digitally, whatever) was completely asinine and unnecessary. THOSE cops and THOSE lawyers definitely exist in abundance in all over D.C., the southside, and Baltimore. Anyway, thats all. Green is, of course, the lead of the show and he is brilliant. David-I just finished the entire series in about a week. Love your comment. I mean its obvious all three of them enjoyed it way too much for a normal gangster who just wanted someone out of their way- and Marlos final shot licking the blood off his sleeve just about proves that that guy was about to go on a black Manson killing spree had the story logically continued from its stopping point. But the gratuitous images and the worn-out theme aside this show has a lot to offer. Im nitpicking though I loved seeing the little references to old characters even sourvino being in the final series Top series. Actually, I dont even think of it as a show its literature. I loved how the series showed its one big circle & for everyone person saved bubbles theres a dookie, Marlo trying to become stringer but him being more like avon, Michael becoming the new Omar & many more. It worked, I thought it fell short of the seasons 3, and 4. It was way worse than you thought. But the fifth-season story arc began with a wonderful bit of adversarial reporting on deadline good, clean newspapering it was. Its about the media and powers that manipulating the masses to support a war in Iraq fought on false pretenses. Both shows only went 5 seasons but BB tied up the loose ends and made the ending much easier to swallow than TW did. I just graduated and During the political campaign in Season 3, when Royce was facing pressure from Carcetti, there is a subtle glimpse into the racial component. August 19, 2002. 1) The newsroom angle was a good idea but perhaps the show writers were a bit too close to it. I did have a question though that I hope you could answer. Rowan is following him even though she is hurt and losing blood. While we have been in the longest war in U.S. history we have had to sit through endless sensationalism about: Jeb Bushs crackhead niece Noelle Bush; Terry Schiavo; Tiger Woods; Casey Anthony; Treyvon Martin then George Zimmerman; Michael Brown; and it will never end. Much respect, and I hope you still read these. From the Huffington Post, March 17, 2008 Loved how one episode segues seamlessly into the next, and one season covers one full story in depth rather than typical crime dramas that present a problem and a resolution all in 43 minutes. The character development and the way each characters persona was mirrored throughout each realm (from the street, to the BPD, to the courthouse, city hall, the ports, the newsroom) is the most amazing writing Ive ever seen. The acting is excellent, but I find this show way too unsubtle, lurid, and melodramatic. Okay, I dont actually agree, but neither would I argue. I worked at a newspaper with a POS liar who made up quotes, and the editor was obsessed with him and looked the other way (on the fake quotes and also, grossly, sexual harassment). And being a refuge from a newsroom, I thought I was over my grief at the death of real journalism. Reformthat word evokes so many thoughts for me now after watching The Wire. The Wire was arguably the best television series ever made. I just watched all 5 seasons over the past couple weeks and it was a pleasure. Brilliant! And then Season 5 happens. basically that whole hood that was the result of DC trying to lower crime stats by forcing all the hood rats over the Maryland line. If you like your murder mysteries uncensored this is the best one. Every time I sit down to watch it again, more and more of the depth reveals itself. Thanks for the response, even if it got the best of me! It would not have been easy for a veteran police reporter to pull all the police reports in the Southwestern District and find out just how robberies fell so dramatically, to track each individual report through staff review and find out how many were unfounded and for what reason, or to develop a stationhouse source who could tell you about how many reports went unwritten on the majors orders, or even further to talk to people in that district who tried to report armed robberies and instead found themselves threatened with warrant checks or accused of drug involvement or otherwise intimidated into dropping the matter. The story the music the acting is just so damn beautiful. Then you have the choir, inexplicably, warbling on as if to lend some kind of gravitas to the lacklustre proceedings. But suggest that high-end American newspapers have been gutted by out-of-town ownership, besieged by the internet and preoccupied by a prize culture that validates small-trick and self-limiting impact, rather than seriously evaluating problems? We told the precise story we wished to tell and what happened was supposed to happen. Great. I binged watch all 5 seasons, The Wire is the best tv series in tv history. So they went from 20 to 17. We have some of these initiatives in the UK but Im not sure about the situation in the US, and Im curious to know what you think. . Americans are stupid ppl by and larger, they pretty much believe whatever we tell them As they series progresses, the style of editing and camera work alters. If my state of mind can be presumed by this fellow, certainly Im entitled to note his own. I think it was something like a 14% reduction in crimes such as shootings and aggravated assault. Maybe the guys just kind of being a dickhead here. Well now, its been a week since The Wire s final episode and a certain calm has descended, leaving a little less agita and a little more reflection. Endless repetitions of the words "of course" are truly the hallmarks of a second rate detective production. It was fuckin awesome. And, just like the black counterparts, almost all of them gain some level of career advancement, be it Rawls promotion to superintendent, Pearlmans to judge, Hurks ascension in the legal realm (admitably his is more honest than the others, since he wanted the same things McNulty and Freamon wanted, and he actually suffers the consequences of his mess-up in Season 4), Carcetti, Templeton, etc. Interesting article. And Omar, well I can understand his death, tragic, but it was more realistic than a final bloodfest. I always thought the crime reduction % that Colvin reports as a result of his Hamsterdam experiment were too low. I am writing my thesis on THE WIRE This argument strucked me when Omar died and no one noticed it in The Sun No institutional memory, no quality journalism. But what is particularly interesting is, aside from McNulty, many of the white characters in the season engage in almost the same amount and level of corrupted games as their black counterparts, in some cases moreso. David, let me first congratulate you on making one of the most riveting series to have ever graced the global stage. In this sense, life-imitates-art just as art-imitates-life. The first was Joshua Ferris novel Then We Came to the End, FAQ Id always had reservations about the believability of character who existed in a contained bureaucratic work environment surrounded by lifers, repeatedly stabbing his peers and superiors in the back for wholly self-serving reasons with so few repercussions. I became hooked from the first episode "Mermaids Singing" which is done in 2 parts, with each episode my enthusiasm for the show also grew. I realize that this is ten years too late to be of any practical use, but I just thought Id throw it out there. The great irony (relative to the final season) is that the criticism being leveled against NCLB and the war on drugs was lost on the real-life media in the very same way that The Wires Baltimore Sun missed those very same things in the show. Hopefully there is some point in time when the majority of people become a little smarter and catch up w/ the intelligence this show possesses. The writing, the directing, the acting, the story arcs: are all amazing. What is most unfortunate is that your scathing and accurate critique of Washington D.Cs left armpit (with PG County being its right) and really the entire D.C. area will always be written off as great entertainment and remembered as one of the best shows ever on television.
