Writers of the Wire Wax Poetic On Show’s Five Year Run

by Avid Reader on March 5, 2008

The season finale of The Wire is March 9. Where has the season gone? Anyway, I ran across this article that is written by Dennis Lehane, George Pelacanos, David Simon, Ed Burns on what it is they were trying to convey with their five year run of The Wire. All I have to say is that it’s been a great ride, guys. I own all four seasons and can’t wait till season five is available. You can read the entire article here. Enjoy.
