WORTH CONSUMING!

Although I love The Wire, I have to say that I found this series rather fragmented and less satisfying than the other two seasons. I think it’s because the central narrative draws together previously established themes (The Game, politics and corruption) rather than introducing newer ones. As a viewer I had to shift into the idea that things were developing rather than going off in a new direction.

However, having said that, this is still razor sharp drama with fantastic characterisation that never allows you to take one side over the other. This season has the added subversive suggestion that perhaps the only solution to the out of control drug trade is to legalise it; a bold position for any mainstream drama to take.

Can’t wait for Season Four!
