Since it’s been touted as some of the best drama ever made, I guess The Wire is now trying to conquer the comedy market. Probably due to low funds or laziness, however, producers have clearly resorted to regurgitating old scenes, with a cheap laughter track added.

You’d think with all that success they’d be able to re-shoot the whole series and make it into a sitcom. This is what happens in a recession – unemployment and poor television. I think I’ll stick to the original.
