The Wire este probabil unul dintre cele mai bune seriale crima/drama facute vreodata, asa ca poti sa-l incepi linistit. Altele care merita: OZ, The Shield, Person of Interest, True Detective (sezonul I), Homeland, Dexter, Sons of Anarchy, Fargo, Luther, Hannibal, Peaky Blinders, Mad Men, Justified, Whitechapel, Vikings, Boston Legal, Broadchurch, Rectify, Banshee, The Killing, The Fall, Rome, Life, The Bridge, The Americans, The Blacklist, Lie to Me, Endeavour, Southland, Strike Back, White Collar. Si daca-ti place genul, niste minserii senzationale despre razboi facute de HBO: Band of Brothers, The Pacific si Generation Kill.
