Get off the couch, turn off your TV, go to Blockbuster, and get Season #1.

Or I’ll revoke your graduation.

You were so nervous people were going to give it away! Anyway I’m very sorry your show has ended. I wasn’t a Wire watcher but I was of course a Sex & the City fan and I remember the feelings of loss I had once it ended! So sad!

The closest thing I recall was when I finished Great Expectations.

The characters in great fiction often live for me, but no television characters have ever been as alive to me as those on The Wire.
