The Wire
Produced by HBO
Created by David Simon
2002-2007
The Wire is a cop show about the grit of life in the streets of Baltimore, the drug dealers and the politically manipulated bureaucracy intent on not rocking the boat.
This realism comes from long time Baltimore Sun reporter David Simon and he brings the City to life with a great voice.
The title 'Wire' refers to the use of wiretaps in investigations, but the production was also at a time of great popularity for the magazine 'Wired'. These wires were provided by one honest State's Attorney and one honest Judge.
