I binged out on a bunch of episodes recently, and was blown away all over again about how gritty, rich, dark, hilarious, complex, scathing, and real it is all at the same time.

I mention because I discovered a delightful treasure trove of detailed reviews and analysis about all things The Wire, and a bunch of other shows as well. It’s on a blog called What’s Alan Watching? The cool thing about how Alan handles The Wire is that he takes the time to split out episode reviews into “beginner” and “veterans editons.” Veterans is great for super fans like yours truly as it ties in “future” episodes and gives a Big Picture take on the entirety of the series.

If you’re all in the game, you must check it.
