Scene Index

Editorial Reviews

In time-honored American tradition, two tough bureaucracies clashed head-on in the HBO police drama, The Wire, created by Homicide: Life on the Street producer David Simon. The "good guys" included homicide detectives Jimmy McNulty (Dominic West) and Bunk Moreland (Wendell Pierce) and narcotics detectives Shakima Greggs (Sonja Sohn), Cedric Daniels (Lance Reddick), Ellis Carver (Seth Gilliam), and Herc Hauk (Dominick Lombardozzi). To say that these law officers did not always see eye to eye would be an understatement, but their jealous squabbles were minor compared to the ego-driven flare-ups within the bad guys' camp -- specifically the members of the Franklin Towers drug dealing operation, led by Avon Barksdale (Wood Harris) and his contentious relatives, like Wee-Bey (Hassan Johnson). The 12 episodes of Season 2 include: "Ebb Tide"; "Collateral Damage"; "Hot Shots"; "Hard Cases"; "Undertow"; "All Prologue"; "Backwash"; "Duck and Cover"; "Stray Rounds"; "Storm Warnings"; "Bad Dreams"; and "Port in a Storm."

November 22, 2009: Probably one of the best shows ever. A must-see.

July 09, 2008: Originaly when season 2 came out, people were weary of the switch from focusing strictly on the Barksdale crew to now moving into the docks. At first glance, this may seem like a weak season, but it is anything but. After comlpleting the entire series and then going back to watch individual episodes, you see how the seeds planted in season 2 comeback in a big way to help determine season 5 and the overall outcome of the show. Great season full of many memorable moments. Long live the Greek.
