The Wire

teckle is the word we use around here...tuckin' feckle

i wasn't sure the court episode was entirely needed at the end of season 1 though...although i liked the bit when mcnulty gets asked by rawls where he doesn't want to go and he just smiles

the only problem with the start of season 2 is that it starts the new story while still showing parts of the old story...and the sting operation for the dock workers you dont really bother about to begin with and just want to know what's happening with Avon Barksdale and everyone from season 1

Yeah, I felt the same way about season 2 at first, like who are these guys?, but it develops and i think season 2 is my favourite.

Word to you fools. I felt the same, too. Then I gave in the beauty of the show, and I was swept along by the tsunami.

loved Omar in the court scene...

Omar rules, my favourite character.

i like this new guy from NYC...brother or whatever they call him...reminds me of the assassin from serenity...

just finished season 3...good stuff...i knew brother mouzone would come back into it...and i had a feeling it was to make a deal with Omar about stringer bell...and i was right...yay me

didn't think Avon would outsmart stringer though...he obviously sold out stringer to mouzone (the asking where he'd be at what time gave it away)....but i did think stringer would try and get rid of Avon

i like this Marlo character...i get the feeling him and Omar will be having a showdown at some point

also get a feeling alot of main characters are going to be dead by the end of the series

well i've got 2 episodes of the final season to watch...have to say...what a shit way for Omar to go out...

finally finished all 5 seasons

my verdict?

i didn't like the cheese they layered on at the end...trying to make Mike the new Omar and trying to make Dukie the new Bubbles...we get the idea that the whole thing is cyclic and it never ends...smacking people in the face with it wasn't really neccessary

i did like Marlo going back to the street at the end though...

i'll reserve judgement on whether it's better than the shield when the finale of season 7 comes...

neither of them touch the sopranos for characters though

now i best get cracking on with "generation kill" and "sons of anarchy"

Sopranos sucked. Oh, Chrissy sat on the dog, watch out for rats, lets rip the the phone off the wall, gee, maybe if we kill off Bobby in the toy store next to the train sets, Tony can have a couple fart dreams, ever had any of our sausages? Nuff said.

obviously watched it then...couldn't have thought it was that bad

i have'em all. I'm just a trolling bastardo that plans on getting banned soon. What are you doin' here? I thought I told you to go **** your mother.

yeah...it's obvious...fair play to you

I thought the finale was perfect. Just perfect. Also, I think The Wire wins the world in terms of the characters; I miss McNulty, Bunk, Omar and Skeletor daily.

Fantastic show. So many great characters. Omar is awesome 🙂

Been watching this again and it suddenly struck me how much Ziggy Sobotka looks like Jeff Buckley.

Best form of entertainment on any medium.
