With just days to go now before the final episode of HBO's The Wire, TV Guide has published an interview with actor Tristan Wilds, whose character, Michael Lee, has changed considerably since he was first introduced as one of a handful of school kids featured in Season Four. Prefacing the interview, writer Jon Hein calls the show "the best program that ever aired on HBO---and the best drama currently on television."

Tristan_wildsWilds describes his time working on The Wire as "the best feeling ever. It was a life-changing experience." Of the hardest-hit areas of Baltimore depicted in the show, he reports: "I can't even explain it in words, to be in a neighborhood that's considered so bad and get so much love."

To read the interview, visit tvguide.com. For those who aren't fully up-to-date with the latest episodes, be forewarned: there is at least one big final-season spoiler in the article.
