The second series of the wire does what no other programme can do, & that is somehow manage to be better than the first series of the wire.

I had to get it off amazon.com months ago & have to say it is the most powerfull engaging television that I have watched. It carries on with the same characters as last time, the opposing forces of Mcnulty & Barksdale, cops & dealers, & adds a whole new layer of characters as we have a look at the baltimore docks & the stevedores, working class americans making horrible decisions to fight for the survival of their trade. It rises above cliches of cops & bad guys effortlessly & looks at human bengs struggling with what America & its intstitutions can offer them & how to survive the grim situation of poverty & desperation. It can be heartbreaking & at times blackly comic & left me in awe at such a fantastic achievment.
