HBO's The Wire Follow-Up Makes Stringer Bell's Dream A Nightmare
Stringer Bell’s dreams of legitimizing his criminal empire are cast aside in HBO’s new series We Own This City — making his long-held dream a nightmare. More than 14 years after the ending of the popular HBO crime series The Wire, creator and former police reporter David Simon has returned to the platform with another Baltimore-based story of institutional rot. Although Stringer Bell and his associates are largely a distant memory in We Own This City, more shocking is that Bell’s aspirations to overhaul Baltimore’s criminal underbelly seem to be all but forgotten as well.
