This terrific short animated tribute to “The Wire” by director, designer, and animator Elliot Lim is chock full of visual riffs on the show that transition into one another with tremendous cleverness. It reminded me how much I miss that show, and how, even though we have so much good television available to us today, few shows have been able to match “The Wire” for sheer quality and substance.
