I was glancing through the metro this morning and was surprised to see a giant photo of Bubbles (aka Andrew Royo) in the Metro Weekend section. For those that don’t know, The Wire is probably one of the best written and most honest dramas that has appeared on the small screen. The first season began as an average-to-good cop drama, focusing on thug life and the dope game on the streets of Baltimore. Over the following four seasons we saw the city of Baltimore come to life, each season introducing a new aspect of a struggling American city–the dockworkers being replaced by technology, an underfunded school system, the politics behind a white mayor in a primarily black city, and a local newspaper struggling with its credibility and buyouts. Next to Six Feet Under, I would say this is the best show to appear on HBO, and one of the top ten to appear anywhere. This Sunday will end its five season run; it will be missed.

Greetings and Salutations.
