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.

1.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS A RIP-OFF!!!!!!!!!! DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!!!, September 20, 2006
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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars I agree, December 19, 2006
By Erica N. Prophet (Maryland, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absurd
Right now, you can buy four seasons individually, or bundle 1-2 and buy 3, 4 individually, CHEAPER than this offer--$109.96. Each sells for $27.49. Do the math. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Wire - Amazing
One of the best series I've seen. The details to bring this as close to real life is amazing. The fascinating part is how each season and characters are interlinked. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best under rated show on TV
The Wire sucks you in with one of the best, and overlooked actors, writers, and story line in all of TV. A must, with those who still believe that TV has something to say still.
