Baltimore: The Wire locations, part one

[@Blue_ocean66]

The wire is Baltimore. It's actually a documentary portrayed as just entertainment.

Yes to The Wire, best TV show ever.

[@LoxBeats]

So thats why they were dogs barking on pretty much every scene on the street. Especially the ones with gun fights

[@goonitary]

They should make a Wire type show in Chicago. Sure, it wouldn't be the same, but anyone from chicago knows the similarities between Baltimore and Chicago after watching The Wire. From politicians, police and budget cuts, the drug game ran like a Mob.. It'd be awesome I bet.

[@davidarmitage289]

Rose Hubbard great idea!!! Any progress??

[@pawekosinski9539]

Why would one want basically the same show with only the city's name being spelled differently?

[@acesul8811]

They should call it "The Democrats" because that's their speciality

[@vka337]

They had a show on Chicago called Boss starring Kelsey Grammar. Then the dumb fucks cancelled it after 18 eps.

I think The Wire and The Sopranos are the 2 best tv series ever made. I actually think Wire may be better as there were not any "weak" episodes at all. Sopranos had more than a few episodes that were slow and just not as good as the better episodes. Maybe it was because there were more seasons/more episodes.

[@glennross85]

the sopranos was probably slower because were only really being told tony's story, whereas in the wire we are seeing many stories. both good shows.

[@MizTheDonGargon]

@@glennross85 that's not true at all. We're being told Meadow & A.J's story, Chris's story, Big Pussy, even Vito and Johnny Sack at one point

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

I think at one point they had to add CGI towers after they were taken down. They did eventually introduce that into the pot. For the high rise anyways

I replaced the big windows where avon got killed a d the bullpen scene was at the court house bullpen . We changed that glass for them to and a lot of other ones
