First thing's first, I recommend The Wire and hail it as my favorite TV series.
I know The Wire highly based upon Colesburry's experiences and of course this. A lot of the character archetypes are not just shared with this, but are based on this. Actually, with proper editing, one could probably fit most of this series into the Wire seemlessly.
I highly recommend it for fan's of The Wire, or anyone doing social studies on addiction and family dynamics, or just anyone who wants a compassionate window into the middle-ages of the drug epidemic. The stories are so lovingly brought to the big screen and I thought it was super cool to see some of the Wire's main cast playing completely different roles in this.
I really enjoyed this miniseries.
