The Wire: Season 3
"Grade: A - TV's richest, most satisfying experience..." - Entertainment Weekly
The heat is on in Baltimore. The drug war is being lost, bodies are piling up, and a desperate mayor wants the tide turned before the election. But the police department hasn't got any answers. With the demolition of the Franklin Terrace towers, Stringer Bell and the Barksdale crew have been forced to improvise. But no matter how hard McNulty and the detail try, the dealers always seem to be one step ahead of the game.

Hang in through the first half of the season.... - ByeByeCable
After about three episodes of this season, I was starting to get a little bored, but continued to watch because as with the other 2 seasons, I hoped that it would get just as intense and I wasn't disappointed. The last 4 episodes were amazing! The benefit of renting TV after it is aired is the ability to watch episode after episode and not wait for weeks. By far, the finale of this season was the most shocking and intense yet.One of the Best Shows EVER - Mookie
There are two types of people - people who love and rave about this show and people who haven't seen it yet. Okay, sure, there are some who started to watch it and thought it was two slow but I would be amazed if someone who watched all of first season wasn't hooked.
This was another amazing season with amazing acting and outrageously great story-telling. It is hard for me to rank seasons so I can't say if this was the best (I think first season still holds that honor for me) but it was again amazing and is a different type of story-telling. Like all seasons - it starts slow ends with bangs and then fades into some unresolved story threads. We are back focusing on the drug trade again and Stringer Bell. We get some politics thrown in and one cop's unique solution to the drug problem. So unique but effective that you'll be asking if it was based on a true event (it wasn't).
If you are a fan - this is another great season. If you aren't a fan PLEASE rent season one and get ready to see Intelligent TV at its finest.The Wire: Season 3 - paulwren1
