Walking The Wire with Tristan Wilds
The best drama on television is coming to a close on Sunday. It's the best program that ever aired on HBO. It's not Deadwood. It's not The Sopranos. It's The Wire.
I enjoyed talking to Tristan Wilds, who portrays Michael on my favorite Baltimore drama. From his memorable entrance with three other school kids at the beginning of Season 4, Tristan has become an integral part of The Wire. Not only is he a nice guy, but he's clearly a huge fan of the show.
We spoke about everything leading up to this Sunday's finale, including the tough decisions Michael has had to make, who the smartest character on the show is, and what it's like shooting on the streets of Baltimore. The complete Q&A can be found in Interviews & Features. Give it a read, and let me know what you think.

Jon Hein,
Thanks so much for always being a champion of The Wire (including your shout-outs on Sirius). It truly is the most amazing show to ever be broadcast on television. There also has never been a show with the shear amount of continuity that has been seen in The Wire. I still marvel at all of the small details that were set-up seasons ago that are just now presenting ramifications in the story.
I can't believe there's only 95 minutes left to spend in the world of The Wire, but it was the most amazing ride I've ever had from any form of entertainment. Thanks again for helping to get the word out on this show.
