The Wire

[Fpoonsie]

That actor was perfect in Orange is the New Black tbh

Still blows my mind that Nick is PornStache.

How about McNulty and Rawls going at it again in The Affair? Jury's still out on the show, but kind of fun to see the two of them on screen at the same time again.

Wait what? That's ing Nick Sobotka? So this guy is the most annoying character on two series?

Just finished binge watching The Wire. I didn't recognize him. Lol.


I did notice a few of the actors were cast on The Walking Dead.


I liked the series, but not as much as most people. There are a dozen or more series that are better.

I watched Orange is the New Black before this and laughed pretty hard when i noticed Nick was pornstache.

Actually didn't mind Nick though. He just seemed like the competent cousin that was always trying to bail Ziggys dumb ass out. He was alot more like Frank than Ziggy. Even the drug dealing he did for his family just like Frank did what he needed to do for the union.

Marlo and Snoop are annoying as . Chris is really the only one I like from the Stanfield crew. The way Snoop talked always came off as forced to me but apparently that may just be how that is, since she got busted in real life too.

Snoop is genuinely re ed and a legit crack baby.

those are two of the most authentic characters in television.

Just finished the series. Stayed away from this thread until now, cause spoilers.

What a show. So much intricacy. I can't wait to watch it again and find all the parallel threads that run from the first season to the last. Beautiful.

2 is underrated, but so is 5. People who said that McNulty wasn't stupid enough to pull off the serial killer stuff, well, he was hammered when it got into his head, and he was desperate. Desperation and alcohol do strange things to people.

4 > 3 > 2/5 > 1. I thought 1 just took too long to get wound up and wrap the audience up in the character's lives. I'm sure upon rewatching it'll be better.

Season 2 is incredible. The scene where Cheese punks Ziggy and steals his car right in front of Frog when Zig was trying to act hard after getting shorted was incredible. And Omar clowning Levy in court was classic too. Season 2 is second only to 4 for me.

4 > 2 > 3 > 5 = 1

I liked both characters. I though Marlo was a bit of Stringer and Barksdale. Snoop grew on me quite a bit. Marlo's scene in the final episode where he finds out that Omar had trashed his reputation was great."My Name Is My Name!"

Any of you been watching the marathon in HD on HBO Signature? I'd only watched a handful of episode before. I have to say that this was a pretty good show. Kind of a shame it never got any love at awards time.

[spurraider21]

I'm about 5 episodes in. Always heard people raving about it. So far so good.

[SnakeBoy]

I finally watched this series early this year. Very good but it is amazing how dated it seems these days.

Only thing I didn't like was the Hamsterdam story line. Just so unrealistic.

Interesting. I'll probably never go back and rewatch it. But it's gotta be a top 5 series.

I watched for the first time last year. From a pure entertainment standpoint, Bunk and McNulty might be two of the best series cops ever casted outside of True Detective. Just wait until you get to the " " episode.

Damn I was hooked on the show after the Snot Boogie scene. This America, man.

Here's one of my favorite scenes...
"Snoop buys a nailgun"

My fave part outside of various Omar scenes was Rawls just chillin
