Het vierde seizoen van de Amerikaanse tv-serie The Wire (wikipedia) wordt niet zelden ‘de beste serie ooit op tv uitgezonden’ genoemd. Onnodig overdreven, maar niet eens heel ver bezijden de waarheid. Hoe dan ook, vandaag 6 januari begint het vijfde en laatste seizoen:
“The fifth and final season of ‘The Wire’ centers on the media’s role in addressing - or failing to address - the fundamental political, economic and social realities depicted over the course of the series, while also resolving storylines of the numerous characters woven throughout the narrative arc of the show.
Explains series creator David Simon, “It made sense to finish ‘The Wire’ with this reflection on the state of the media, as all the other attendant problems of the American city depicted in the previous four seasons will not be solved until the depth and range of those problems is first acknowledged. And that won’t happen without an intelligent, aggressive and well-funded press.”"
In Nederland is The Wire overigens niet anders dan via bittorent te volgen. (Leesvoer en kijkvoer na de klik.)
