Product Information
Acclaimed HBO series THE WIRE centres on the drug culture of inner-city Baltimore. The series' storyline unfolds from the viewpoints of both the criminals ruling the streets and the police officers determined to bring them down. In the show's fourth series, which is included here in its entirety, four new characters--Dukie Weems, Randy Wagstaff, Michael Lee, and Namond Brice--are introduced to the gritty television drama. The plot in the fourth series mostly focuses on the eighth graders who try to survive the drug-laden streets of West Baltimore as the city's mayoral race enters its final stages. Clarence Royce, the black candidate, has a colossal lead over white councilman Tommy Carcetti, while Marlo Stanfield continues his ascension as Baltimore's new drug baron.Product Identifiers

ReviewsUSA Today - Brilliant, scathing, sprawling, THE WIRE has turned our indifference to urban decay into a TV achievement of the highest order, Entertainment Weekly - The best series on TV, period, New York Times - This season of THE WIRE will knock the breath out of you, Variety - When television history is written, little else will rival THE WIRE, a series of such extraordinary depth and ambition that it is, perhaps inevitably, savored only by an appreciative few, TV Guide - This is TV as great modern literature, a shattering and heartbreaking urban epic about a city (Baltimore) rotting from within
