Description The lecture situates the HBO series The Wire within a variety of developments (industrial, technological, commercial) contributing to the changing viewing practices of the American audiences. It focuses on the show's narrative complexity; on the creators' basic subscription to the mode of realism; and it examines its rootedness in a particular place, its economy, history, politics and language.
