For Final Grades (2006).
- 2009 Winner AFI Award
- TV Program of the Year
THE WIRE captures the decay of an American city by calling upon the forces of many art forms - the novel, the opera, the motion picture - and combining them to present a show like no other on television. David Simon's wizardry of the word harnesses the unique power of the medium to show the interconnectivity of our complex social and political systems, the consequences of their inability to relate and the dramatic effect on us all. This fifth and final season brought the curtain down on America's tragic urban landscape - an ending that served as both love song and eulogy to a city, its institutions and its people. - 2007 Winner AFI Award
- TV Program of the Year
THE WIRE is the great American novel produced for television. Rich in detail and engrossing in depth of character, the show is a moving document about the failure of American social institutions - from the family to schools to the justice system and beyond. David Simon and his talented writing team have created a window on our world - one complicated by motives, illuminated by nuance, and ultimately, heartbreaking in its humanity. THE WIRE is a show that you do not simplywatch; it's one you live. - 2004 Winner AFI Award
- TV Program of the Year
THE WIRE portrays mundane police work with tragic grandeur and, in doing so, captures the seemingly intractable problem of drugs in American society in a daring and unique way. Complex and subtle, the series offers a look at police procedure more realistic than any show on television.
