1.0 out of 5 stars You'd have to be stupid to buy this., August 16, 2006

Buying all three seasons combined is over a 100 dollars more then buying seasons 1 and 2 bundled and season three by it self. How are people saving money this way?

Please if im wrong, tell me so.

I can't help but think someone is trying to deviously sucker someone on this. It is soooooo much cheaper to buy these separately! 5 stars for the show itself. It's the best cop show ever. It shows the way things really are. 0 stars for this 3 season deal. This is a crime in itself! BUY THEM SEPERATELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't get me wrong, I love this show. Call it an addiction for me that no 12-step program could ever cure, but I'd have to be 10 kinds of stupid to buy this set at this price when I can buy the first & second season bundled, and buy the third season separately, and pay much less. I'd recommend buying all seasons of The Wire.....but not like this.

1 star, because there's no "no star" option.
