‘The Wire’ is Can’t Miss TV

TelevisionSorry, folks. I’m a little late with this one. “The Wire” is quite simply the best show on television, and has been for a while. Now it has entered its fifth and final season, and the season premiere airs Jan. 6. But my head was wrapped in holiday paper and soaked in eggnog, so I failed to tout it early enough. If you have HBO, you know the first episode will continue to air this week and also is available on HBO On Demand. Usually, each season is unique for a particular backdrop — politics, education, life on the docks. This time it’s the newspaper business. Creator David Simon is coming home. Give this show your attention and also a proper send-off. You’ll miss it when it’s over, and no mentions in Can’t Miss will bring it back. (HBO, Sunday, 9 p.m.)
