I just finished a Wire binge, I watched every season in something like 3 or 4 weeks. 5th season is great though, like the rest of em. Just get ready for a lot of shit happening all at once. It's almost too much but it all works out in the end. You won't be wondering what happened to anyone cus every story is finished pretty much, like Wood was saying. Season 5 seemed a lot more fast paced though, mainly cus of the situations and just how much goes on, which sucks cus it goes by the fastest when you don't want it to end. As far as my favorite seasons go, 1,3 and 4 probably. I wish Omar wasn't gay.
