The paper addresses the issue of academic interest in the highly acclaimed HBO series The Wire. While much media and social studies literature has analyzed the series itself, relatively little has been written about community the acafans, who in the rise of web 2.0 replaced the the subculture known colloquially as nerds. Created in 2002 by David Simon “the best show in the history of American television” was firstly rejected by the HBO viewers but then fully embraced by TV critics and scholars. Academic fans created unprecedented fandom around The Wire and in consequence they managed to bring the program back into popular, general interest.

The aim of the article is to illustrate policy considerations on bureaus, presented in the TV series The Wire. We plan to show that significant theoretical contributions to the economics of bureaucracy have been well presented by the creators of the show. It could even be stated that this series is the first TV treatise about social institutions, bureaus in particular. The first section describes inherent causes limiting implementations of political plans. The second section focuses on the series’ most significant contribution, that is portraying the hyperparametrization of bureaus. The third section relates methodological individualism to the context of bureaucratic determinism.
