Some Technical Stuff

The Wire is the central focus of this blog, but I don't entirely intend for it to be the sole topic of conversation. Expect full reviews, recaps, and discussions of individual episodes to make the majority of the content here, but don't expect that to be the entirety of the content. From time to time, I'll be discussing other topics that interest me, which may be as far-reaching as poker and sports and video games, to other television shows and general web themes, tropes, and memes that have caught my eye.

I have no set timetable for these reviews. At the very least I'd like to do one per week, but we'll see how that works out.

Each review will consist of a specific structure, starting with a plot synopsis and moving on to episode review and discussion. My intent is not to compete with the sort of (almost overwhelming, imo) detail that you'll find on a place like Television Without Pity, but for commentary and connections to form the bulk of the text.

I will frequently reference and link to The Wire Wiki, a fantastic resource for episodes, characters, and bits and pieces of trivia.

I have no qualifications whatsoever to do this, apart from the qualification that stems from the fact that I'm doing it.

Enjoy!
