HBO's The Wire, starring Idris Elba and Dominic West, among others, is one of the greatest dramas to ever grace the television screen. There's high octane action, engaging characters, humor, and everything else one desires from a binge-able series.
In season 2, David Simon, the show's creator, gave the viewers a detailed look at how the docks in Baltimore functioned, included the corruption and the lack of attention people usually pay to it.
