True. But prop Joe should have taken his own advice when he told old face rick that he should be hiding out of town somewhere.

Lil man that killed Omar was plotting on him since he saw Omar limping. Ain't run like everybody else when Omar was coming down the block. A major street figure killed by a kid. Crazy.

On season 4 of the re-watch. Show is so damn good.

Season 2 isn't as bad as people make it out to be. Love how the show seamlessly flows from season to season.

 

[Master Zik]

Lowkey season with the journalists, I think the last season, is worse than S2.

 

[getback]

Oh hell yeah season 5 is def the worst.

4>2>3+1>5 IMO

Season 2 is criminally underrated because they invoked the ports. Folks weren't feeling that angle at first. The character arcs in that season are remarkable and the writing is probably second to only S4. Story is as relevant as ever too as it pertains to the working class, unions, politics, etc.

The Wire was great at addressing social topics before they were "mainstream."

Yea I used to be on the season 2 is the worse boat but after rewatching, Ima say season 2 might be the second best behind season 4. Currently on season 3 right now.
Been rewatching the show and also reading David Simon’s homicide book. Going to read Clockers next which is also by a Wire writer Richard Price.

Aye, what corner was tater-man shot at?

Division and gold?? Or was it Pennsy and gold?? Never could make out exactly what weebay was saying.

Highly recommended if you haven't already:

Funny fact: They almost gave John C. Reilly the part of McNulty.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

All the seasons are good but I'm going

3>1>4>2>5

 

[DaKidFromHaiti]

Also wanted to ask, I’m on episode 8 or 9 of season 3, after Chris shoots at Avon with the shotgun. Is there a scene where we see Avon talk about setting up Marlo with Devonne or did I miss it?

 

[getback]

Avon does mention it in a scene, not sure exactly which episode.

Got it, thanks, musta missed it. Gonna rewatch the last 5 episodes

Yep, It was division and gold

[Maximus Meridius]

McNulty and Freeman was going hard with that "serial killer" nonsense.

And they swept it under the rug cuz it make the rest of law enforcement and the politicians look terrible.

 

[edshoecator]

season 5 by far the worst season. 2>4>1>3>5
