The 50 Best TV Boxsets

The Wire: the Complete Series
Virtually every TV critic in the country has described it as the greatest TV show ever made, and combined with the fact that it was shown here on the relatively obscure FX channel, it's hardly surprising that The Wire has really taken off on DVD. Over five series, the show takes you through the inner workings of Baltimore, and its wide scope ranges from the detectives in the homicide department to the drug dealers on the corners. If you haven't yet succumbed to the hype then do so - you are in for a treat.
How much: £124.99

What are you basing this 'Best' on? Where's The Shield? It's way better than The Wire, and possibly one of the best written and gritty TV shows to grace our screens!

I suffered from post soprano's depression so when I heard about this series I thought i'd give it a go. I wasn't disappointed. The wire is the most realistic police drama i've ever seen. The only problem is i've just finished the 5th series.
