The Wire: Port in a Storm (2003)
Season 2, Episode 12
7/10
Season 2 Review

Overall a pretty good season. The port setting and Greek connection was interesting and most importantly easy to follow. I watched this whole season quickly because it was quite enjoyable. This was far better than season 1 which was lackluster.

One of the biggest things to me was this had initially started because Valchek, an old and arrogant official, wanted to settle a score with Frank Sobotka. One has to consider that illegal activity and hustling happens every day, it is only because of revenge and allocating so much police resource to an area that it exposed so much. Would Bunk and Freamon been able to solve the 14 girl murder with no resourcing or detail? They likely wouldn't have got far enough.

Strong 7 out of 10.
