This year marks the 10th anniversary of the debut of "The Wire", still one of HBO’s most-popular original series', and an iconic part of the Black on-screen lexicon. Yet, the critically-acclaimed show never won an Emmy. Still, it was a show that brothers and sisters of all colors watched and fell in love with - its realness and imagery of 'hood life in Baltimore depicted the city's plight, which still has not changed much since the show went off the air.
