A good friend tells me that the video editors for The Wire work next door to him, so I might get some advance poop on the new season, set to start in March. Ideally, you know, their edit suite would be some Narnia-like room where I could suddenly become the rookie cop on the show, but I'm not sure exactly how that works so I don't want to get too excited in advance if that part doesn't work out.

was wondering this morning whether anyone had a complete list of the names on the board and which episodes they feature in.
― koogs (koogs), Monday, 12 December 2005 09:29 (7 years ago) Permalink
itv4 are dicking around with the schedules a bit, episodes are being dropped for random films and stuff (between parts 2 and 3 of the last storyline for instance) and this week there appears to be a friday episode on top of the sunday episode.
(i have started the aforementioned list of names on the boards in my palm pilot. some numbers have 3 names associated with them.)

More Homicide / CSI crossover. the one i watched last night (actually from the night before) was the one with the suicide that gets fatally shot on the way down. before she started telling this tale (at an ME convention) the bloke before her was telling them about how his department has just located the place of death using the bugs found in the body using their newly appointed forensic entomolgist. "Forensic Entomolgist!?". much laughter...
tivo episode descriptions are currently one episode out.

they've been showing it again, from the beginning, on itv4 but appear to be finishing at the end of series 3 (next week)
i've been writing down the names on the board as i spot them but figured it'd be on the web somewhere. a quick google for "visciglia liddell" (2 of munch's cases from 1994) gave me:
http://members.aol.com/jimking/ which is stunning.
(the last 3 i've seen have had Steve Buscemi, John Waters and Tim Russert guest starring / cameos). but the way they are showing them out of order bugs me (end of season three was episodes from before the shootings / bolander's scar, for instance.)

I have been thinking of watching this when I finish S5 of The Wire. How does it compare?
― Meg Busset, Saturday, 19 July 2008 17:51 (4 years ago) Permalink
For its time, it was really about as good as it gets. C4 UK passed up on the final season, which is probably where the rot set in for them.
Having recently seen a BBC2 piece on The Wire, but never watched it, I'm in the opposite situation of feeling I should really catch up with a box set.
― Soukesian, Saturday, 19 July 2008 18:26 (4 years ago) Permalink
I don't know how much it compares as I haven't seen much of the Wire, but it's generally considered about as realistic, but more episodic. Nearly everyone I've come across who loves one loves the other.

Everyone needs The Wire in their life.
I'm just worried that Homicide will be like The Wire, only not quite as good. Only one way to find out, I guess!
― Meg Busset, Saturday, 19 July 2008 19:26 (4 years ago) Permalink
well, according to the current Tivo listings, on 4th october itv4 here in the UK is showing "La Famiglia" which is episode 1 of series 7 and i think is the first time it's been aired on english tv. (is, as usual, 2:55 in the morning but...)
(last night's was 6.16 The Abduction which is roughly where they stopped the last lot of repeats)

In anticipation of this placing on the '90s poll, just thought I'd point out that Amazon at this very moment has an insane sale on the complete series. 60% off, dudes!!!

Pretty much best show ever created.
My husband would agree. We're only through season 1 and started watching s2. But he's hooked. And thinks it's the best show evah.
Me? I really like it. S1 was good, S2 seems even better. I did not like the Gyllenhaal directed ep, I have to admit. Hated it. Not the storyline, just the style of directing was totally off (imo)
