'The Wire' Returns On January 6th!

The best show on television, The Wire, is starting it's fifth and final season of 10 episodes on January 6th. (Actually if you have Time Warner Cable you can see the first episode on HBO On Demand starting January 31.)

The Wire has been one of Mad Professah's favorite television shows since discovering the second season by accident. I immediately bought the first season DVDs and devoured the entire 13-episode season in a weekend in order to catch up on the back story as the second season unspooled.

Here is a promo for the 5th Season

In addition to this vieo, the producers have released some cute "prequel" videos prior to the start of the final season, mostly for cultlike fans to enjoy, since if you haven't seen the show before you won't really understand their significance.

'Lost' to return Thursday January 31 at 9pm

Season 4 of Lost will return to television with 8 consecutive episodes on Thursdays on ABC at 9pm (Grey's Anatomy's time slot) starting January 31, 2008. It was previously announced that Lost would end in 2010 after 3 seasons of 16 consecutive episodes in 2008, 2009 and 2010 --- but that was before the writers' strike. The producers of 24 have announced they will not start airing the show until they can guarantee that the full season of 24 episodes can be aired in its entirety.



There has not been a new episode of Lost since May 23, 2007.
