I caught up with the season by reading the synopses on hbo.com/thewire, but there is nothing like watching all the complex characters and plot interactions on your couch. I can't wait for it to hit DVD, when I'm going to hole up somewhere and cut off my phone and just enjoy myself.
Anybody agree with me that this is the most captivating series ever to hit television?

Oh, it's my favorite show on HBO! Matter of fact, I will probably cancel my HBO subscription once the final Season Five goes off because it's nothing like it on TV. My favorite characters on "The Wire" is Bunk and Omar played by Wendell Pierce and Michael K. Williams. They really bring the characters to life. Both are well received because of their honesty, lack of materialism, individuality and adherence to his strict code. I love how Omar talks in the third person about himself and my favorite line are "Money ain't got no owners, only spenders" and "A man must have a code." Unfortunately, the new season will be the last. David Simon, writer, creator & producer, stated no other theme seemed substantial enough to warrant a sixth season, except possibly the large influences of Latinos into Baltimore. Simon also stated no writer on the show spoke Spanish or had any intimate knowledge of the city's Latino population, the field work would be too cumbersome. I think he opened that door to the Latino community in Baltimore with Omar's new friend, Renaldo & the Latino guys who helped pull off the bust again Prop Joe & the Co-op. Season Four will come out on DVD just in time for the holidays. Stay posted. However, you can catch Season Four on BET this fall. Not the same without all the language and violence but you get the just of it.

I don't agree. It doesn't captivate me
