Many of the same cast members of The Wire star in Treme. [Note: I absolutely HATE HBO's website. It is a total disaster. I am only linking to it out of respect for the creators of The Wire an Treme. Ugh. What a horror show.] The first season of Treme was difficult for me because I really wanted to like it, but something just did not seem right. One glaring problem was that the sound was off. You could tell that the musicians were not actually playing their instruments and when folks were dancing it was often to a different beat than the music we could hear. For a show that centered on music… this was a deal killer. The second season was quite different. It started off with a bang. The writing was different. the annoying characters either disappeared or were marginalized and… the sound was much improved. By the second or third episode I was actually looking forward to the next show. By the time I had finished the 6th show I was totally hooked. Anyhoot. The scene below is quite well done and I thought I would share it. The MP3-only version follows as does a nice version by the Staple Singers.
