When the show premiered, they were caught off guard about how graphic and intrusive they were about late 80's Baltimore drug boon(which got so bad to a point, they renamed the Bullets to the Wizards) and would not grant many filming permits within city limits for season 2. But after the critical acclaim and fanfare the 1st two seasons received, they let them come back in the city for season 3


This is actually a really good explanation for all of that! I kept thinking it was some sort of writer change like The Walking Dead had between season one and two but I guess when you hit a town with the ugly underside, not everyone is super happy about what gets shown.
