Hi all!

For most of tv lovers, The Wire is the best TV show ever. After watching it, it became my best TV show too.
The first time I saw it, it was a crappy dvd/tv rip (it was the best quality you could find out there at the time). The Wire is already a bit hard to watch (4/3, not a lot of post-prod/special effects...), and it appears that the quality of popular torrents of The Wire is still the same :(

So here's the best quality you can find of the TV show The Wire. The only way to get a better quality is to go and buy the DVD/CDs...

In this pack you'll find the TV shows (5 seasons), the sequel (3 mini-episodes) and the extras. All the shows contains english subtitles and audio commentary. Everything is encoded with x264 codec.

There is also a 720p version of the first episode. There will be no other episode in 720p. You can read more about it here  http://magazine.creativecow.net/article/inside-hbos-the-wire

The pack contains also the OST. There is a 320kbps MP3 and a FLAC version. Not the crappy one you can find out there.

Here the screenshots for the show:

Please help us seed (even just an episode or the OST) and make it popular for anyone who search The Wire find the good quality rips. 


NB: Torrent is server seeded for a few months (1GB/s)

Thanks for your hard work. One thing, if you have them, could you please rip and upload in another torrent the spanish subtitles?. if not, thanks again :)

The ratio is not good, the serie is in 4:3...

thewire-ultimate at 2012-05-18 16:18 CET:

The Wire was shot in 4/3.

The only episode which is in 16/9 is the 720p version which was cropped.

Ponkotan at 2012-05-19 08:28 CET:

It's what I meant. The serie is in 4:3 but your screenshots show a different ratio (close to the 16:9) .

thewire-ultimate at 2012-05-19 18:29 CET:

Oh. That's because it's a screenshot from the 720p version.

Here is the dvd version : http://imgur.com/a/bWUcf#1

So it sounds perfect. Thank you for the upload.

karisuma at 2012-05-23 04:01 CET:

Just wondering, is the audio 5.1?

thewire-ultimate at 2012-05-24 05:45 CET:

Yes it's AC3 5.1 for the dvdrip version.
The commentary are in stereo.

evilg0d at 2012-10-03 12:07 CET:

It's very rare for me to bitch about anything from here but you have got to be kidding. Five seasons of TV, Sixty episodes, not a single one titled. Really?

PSotero at 2012-10-04 07:36 CET:

Thanks a lot! Best show ever!

rominoll at 2012-12-15 10:30 CET:

how do i make the subtitles work? im using mpc hc and for some reason its not working

cntmuscle at 2013-01-16 18:59 CET:

@Saito1740
Shut the fuck up, you wannabe gangbanger.

@evilg0d
Every single file states the season and the episode numbers. Google it if you want the name of the episode. It's not that hard. You can do it.

Ive been downloading this torrent for about 2 weeks now and im only at 42% with 1.3 ratio. Everytime i log in all i seem to be doing is uploading at hundreds of kB/s to stingy peers who themselves upload to me at ridiculously low upload speeds. From now on I'm limiting my upload speed to whatever download speed I'm getting.
