If you're not a fan of math, maybe you loved "The Wire,” elaborately honored in all its ugly grittiness in this 10-minute quote reel video compilation. While I could do with fewer gratuitous F-bombs and would love some longer stretches of dialog, it's a nice retrospective for the long-gone, critically acclaimed HBO show.
