These TV Shows Desperately Deserve A Revival

Even The Government Wants A Reboot Of The Wire

Yet another show with critical acclaim but a lack of ratings was HBO’s inner-city drama The Wire. Its creator, David Simon, believed the reason for this was a combination of its setting, extensive use of slang and the timeslot, which was shared with another law-centered drama, The Shield. Justabout every article written on the series has labeled it one of the greatest shows ever. Since its cancellation, fans have been expecting a revival. Even former Attorney General Eric Holder jokingly demanded that Simon make another season. Simon’s response? He agreed to make a sixth season if the U.S. agrees to end the War on Drugs.
