Set in post-Katrina New Orleans, this hourlong drama series, from "The Wire" executive producers David Simon and Eric Overmyer, follows the lives of ordinary residents as they struggle with the aftereffects of the 2005 hurricane. Says star and New Orleans native Wendell Pierce, "The only things people had to hang on to were the rich traditions we knew that survived the test of time before: our music, food and family, family that included anyone who decided to accept the challenge to return." The large ensemble cast is supported by notable real-life New Orleanians, including many of its famous musicians.

Rolf Potts The Atlantic May 25, 2018
Treme doesn't capture an authentic sense for New Orleans so much as join the city's ragged, time-honored argument about what authenticity should look like... The result is an ambitious, occasionally compelling, consistently frustrating mess of a show. Go to Full Review Alison Willmore IndieWire Jan 2, 2014
I'm sorry to see it go, except that it went out on such a perfect note of bittersweet complexity -- like the culture it celebrates and mourns and suggests will endure anyway, it's something to have been relished even as it's come to a close. Go to Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Dec 5, 2013
It's to the credit of the show's creators, David Simon and Eric Overmyer, that these characters have become so familiar and alive in only 30-plus episodes. Go to Full Review Yohana Desta Vanity Fair May 11, 2020
New Orleans is often referred to as the birthplace of jazz, and Treme takes that honorific seriously - one live show, one house party, and one second line at a time. Go to Full Review Randy Dankievitch TV Over Mind Feb 25, 2020
It's an episode full of unbridled hope, even in the face of the very real threats... still remaining in the historical city, ending a dark season (and series) on a number of emotional high notes. Go to Full Review Chris Ball Cleveland Plain Dealer May 25, 2018
Showrunner David Simon delivers the same brilliant writing that made his earlier show The Wire a cult smash. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Ma'ark T @RT57514104 Jan 14, 2026 The final season of Treme was very rushed (I know the story behind the decreased number of episodes) but it tied up all of the loose ends nicely. I love New Orleans and really enjoyed this slow burn of a series and got very attached to the characters (as I always do in Simon's work).
