Just finished another runthrough. Sometime soon I may write up an analysis of the intros to each season. Dunno.
But anyway so I was drunk and watching the series and thinking about how it stands up. And it stands up just fine. Watching it now--ten years later--is like unearthing a time capsule from a run of years that feel like yesterday to me but aren't. It's a pleasure to go back there--and one of the things the Wire does so well is capture the (ugh) zeitgeist of that time, like Generation Kill does. And I was thinking of maybe doing an effort with Generation Kill similar to what Jerusalem and Escape Artist did with The Wire. An episode by episode analysis. Anyone interested?
Read Fick's autobiography while you're at it, it adds a fair bit of context.
