Arguably known as the best television ever created, The Wire chronicles urban decay by exploring different facets of life in Baltimore, Maryland: the drug trade, the ports, local government, the schools and the media. It employs a literary approach as each season unfolds like a chapter unified by the overall theme of the effect that institutions have on individual citizens.
Created by author and former police reporter David Simon, it features a large ensemble cast including such actors as Dominic West, Wendell Pierce, Clarke Peters, Lance Reddick, Michael K. Williams, Idris Elba, Sonja Sohn, Andre Royo and Amy Ryan.

Created by writers and producers of such shows as The Wire and Generation Kill, Treme chronicles the life of New Orleans residents post-Hurricane Katrina as they try to rebuild their lives, homes and unique culture.
Much like The Wire, the show delves into many issues plaguing urban communities like ‘political corruption, the public housing controversy, the criminal-justice system, clashes between police and residents,’ as well as the local culture and ‘the struggle to regain the tourism industry after the storm.’
A vibrant series with a sprawling cast including many renowned actors like Khandi Alexander, Kim Dickens, John Goodman, Melissa Leo, David Morse, Clarke Peters, Wendell Pierce, Jon Seda, and Steve Zahn.
