I have a confession: I have yet to get addicted to HBO’s The Wire. I just recently bought the first season box set after /Film’s own Adam Quigley wouldn’t stop raving about the show during last month’s Comic Con. I’ve watched a couple episodes, and am still unsure – I like it but I don’t yet love it. Everyone says its one of the best television series of all time, and sometimes you have to put your trust in the wisdom of the crowds. Heck, I don’t think I would have watched season one of Battlestar if everyone I talked to didn’t assure me that it got much better after the miniseries. Anyways, enough ranting. Point is The Wire is highly loved and acclaimed, but I don’t know many people who watched it as it was being broadcast on HBO. And everyone I know is always looking for a good show to watch on DVD…
