Having been unimpressed with first series of The Wire, I only started watching this, the second series, due to the endless critical praise that I kept seeing every time I picked up a newspaper. And I'm glad I did. The second series of The Wire is a huge improvement on the first. The story is deliberately slow to get into its stride but nevertheless is compelling from the opening credits to the final fade. This is a high quality Police drama which shows the good and the bad in everyone; the criminals, the stevedores and the Police all have very human qualities, both strengths and weaknesses, and the divide between crime and order is a realistically hazy one. A highly realistic drama showing the pitfalls of Police investigative techniques, the hard ... Read More:

Let me start out by saying: I can't possibly say anything negative about this season nor this series.
It has a brilliant main plot with new seasonending-leadups every year which always keeps it fresh and new. It also has great writers (especially Sera Gamble) and puts the old horrormyths to excellent use, such as Hellhounds, Vampires, Ghouls, Ghost, etc. But what really keeps me hooked to the show and on the edge of my seat during every episode is the excellent acting done, mainly, by Jared Padelecki and Jensen Ackles but much praise should also go to Jim Beaver (Bobby), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (John W.), Lauren Cohan (Bela, though sadly she didn't make it into the fourth season), Samantha Ferris (Ellen), and Alona Tal (Jo). Thanks to great casting ... Read More:

Take a close look at the cover of the season three dvd and you will notice something: Avon and Stringer, together in the same car, but looking in different directions. That tells you all you need to know about these two 'brothers' in season three of The Wire. Whilst Stringer is greasing palms to make the most of the properties they control Avon is glad to be back in the game, keeping control of the corners, and regaining his place on the street. Season three brings us back to the problem of drugs in Baltimore and one man's plan to combat the problem. Major Colvin jokes at one stage that to meet the crime reduction targets he has been set he is going to legalise drugs. But his throwaway comment isn't too far from the truth. By creating zones where a blind eye will ... Read More:

On the 6 June 1998, a show called Sex and the City debuted on the male dominated cable channel HBO. But this wasn't the smutty show most would have been expecting when they tuned in. What they got was a well-written, sassy comedy-drama, by not one, not two, but four strong females. Six years, 94 episodes and an uncountable number of boyfriends later, these four New York women had changed TV, women and sex forever.

Its fours years later and we're back with New York's favourite girls. Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her `man-friend' Big (Chris Noth) are house hunting, and more importantly, still not married; Samantha (Kim Cattrall) has relocated to LA to further the career of boyfriend Smith (Jason Lewis); Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is struggling to juggle ...

Well, season four has completely blown me away. Building on the achievements of the previous three seasons it adds a new dimension which you might say was previously lacking: genuine emotional involvement. As I've said before the writing and the detail contained within it had made us interested in the characters and to care about them too. But by focusing on the education system, and a group of eighth graders in particular, it forces us to really worry about a group of children growing up in a city which has already shown that for some people the only opportunities available are different ways to ruin your life.

A hotly contested mayoral election is the main event in Baltimore.Tommy Carcetti may be the wrong colour to be mayor but by speaking to the right people ... Read More:

For those people (like me) who didn't realise this is half a season I have found out the following:

This is the first 10 episodes.
The last 10 episodes will be released in the UK under the title of 'Season 5' (hence the 'Season 4' title of this one).

This UK release will also include 'Razor' (although I can't find any confirmation of whether it will be the extended version of 'Razor'). It will also included deleted scenes and a sneak peak of the 2nd half of the season.

If, like me, you haven't bought Razor yet then this is still a good way of getting your BSG fix. Especially as I'm getting this as a birthday present.

Still leagues ahead of anything else, season 5 of The Wire IS the weakest so far, and anyone who's watched all five cannot fail to agree. That is to say it is the only less than perfect season out of all of them so while it pains me to find any fault with any of it at all I think the focus should be on the incredible consistency of the show in it's entirety. I've watched each one year on year and it's heartening to see everyone else FINALLY glomming onto the fact that this is the possibly the single finest television series yet made. Hyperbole you say? For once it is not. As good as The Sopranos is, that other HBO stablemate looks like a cartoon next to this modern masterpiece. Now, having praised it in it's completeness it has to be said they slightly overegged the pudding in season ... Read More:

I have always been a fan of the series and have loved it from start to finish. As soon as I heard they was doing a film, I knew I HAD to see it! They really could not have done a better film and even my boyfriend who I dragged along to watch it loved it too! It feels like I've been waiting forever for this film to come out on DVD but its now here and I will definatly be buying my copy! Definatly have some tissues ready because if your not crying, you will be laughing. It's a truely fantastic film!
