"this book is mostly an episode guide (which i'm not into if i've seen all the eps? doesn't make sense to me, but whatevs) but there are interesting essays interspersed on the cast, Baltimore, characters, etc."
"We're currently re-watching the series, and we're only a few episodes into season three so this was perfect. The episode synopses weren't very useful, but I liked all the background information I didn't know before about things like scouting locations, actors, real-world analogues, etc. I'd love it if there was a follow-up book that covered the same territory with the final three seasons."
