I felt the same way. I forced myself to finish it all a couple years ago, but didn't find it as engaging as others did. There are other 'cop' shows I liked more (The Shield for instance). Honestly I find The Wire to be overrated, given the high rankings it has. My other friend who watched it felt the same. And we're both huge HBO fans.
However it was only the 2nd TV series I had ever watched in it's entirety, so I think if I can sit down and watch it a second time, I'll have a better grasp on it. Especially now that it's on Blueray.
