This pops up as I’m watching the wire for the 3rd time in my life. I watched it as a kid, a teen and now a man. Each time it hit differently. From loving the villains as a kid, relating to them as a teen and now pitying/despising them as a man. What a series.

That goes back to the inflated self worth mentioned in the video. Stringer was the man in Baltimore, and thought he could run with or outsmart anyone, including Brother Muzone. Brother Muzone was a NATIONAL figure, and worked with organizations way bigger than Stringer and Avon. Because he could outsmart local hoodlums, he thought he could outsmart professional hitters.

When you mentioned Barksdale, there is a history there that is why Avon is so concerned with reputation. His family had high standing in them streets. And feels obligated to hold that up. That's why he's worries about what people think other than what they say like Marlo.

The Game in Baltimore is treacherous and fierce so you have to have to make sure your reputation is strong. When weakness is shown that’s when the wolves come out to eat. I use to see them filming a lot when the show was on the air, I ran into Omar one night at the gas station in the trenches of the hood one time.

I liked Stringers character because he didn't fit the gangster figure. He disguised his character to the point that even if he did do something, they really had to have hard evidence on him. His business profile made him blend in so well, that he was hard to catch. But in the end, he messed up by greed.

I watch the entire series once a year and have since it’s original air dates. I’m grateful HBO hung onto the show even though the ratings were very low and it really only had a small cult audience until years later. There’s so much depth there that I always find something I missed before. I could go on and gush for days but I do believe this is the best 5 seasons ever produced. All of the social issues addressed in the show are tragically still the same, if not worse.

My first apartment was West Baltimore and my job two blocks where it was filmed. Never watched it because we have to deal with this everyday. And it is much worse. The state government moved to Annapolis, killing jobs. And the last tourist bastion, Fells Point, is now under assault. The worst part? The city isn't poor. The industry didn't leave, it is making more money than ever. It is nothing but pure, unadulterated corruption. The state has been trying to fix it for years, but outside of an outright invasion, there aren't many options. Though hilarious y, a lot of drug dealers are the most sane people there. They are business men.

This series is definitely the best series I ever watched, and I am not even born in USA, so it allowed me to see shows from other countries while living overseas, as well as my native ones. I watched everything from French, to English, to Brazilian, to Argentinian shows, and the Wire is simply the best to me. What made The Wire the best is that no character here is the "main" character. Everyone plays the role, and everyone (even lower ranked soldiers) played the arc of some kind. From Bubbles, to Wallace, to Stringer, to Avon, to Slim Charles, to Snoop and Chris, to Marlo. None of these characters are main characters, they just play part of the movie's roll. It's the only show that I remember that did it so well. Compared to Soprano's where you had clearly Tony as main character almost at all times. The Wire managed to find a perfect balance of reality

Stringer was a lot of things good and bad. But unfortunately Avons assessment was correct and his downfall: “not smart enough for the business people and not hard enough for the streets”. I respect his endgame, same with Colvin, but unfortunately you need Avon. “You can’t be half a gangster “- jimmy (boardwalk empire). He was so close too.

It goes both ways. Avon was short sighted and didn't care about the inevitable future that awaited him and everyone else in the game. Stringer didn't want that and was trying to change it, but you can't change something that doesn't want to change.

I’ve always admired Marlo’s “still waters run deep” approach. Complete 180 from his predecessors. Always played his cards close to his chest and those close to him had not interest in wearing the crown but being protected by it. Marlo was probably the only one truly tapped into his feminine side, ruthless yet fair.

Excellent analysis all round. I would say Stringer's psychopathy was even more layered. He denied and detached himself from the torture, mutilation and murder of Brandon because he "only" ordered the hit. As far as he was concerned, it was Wee-Bey, Stinkum and Bird who were guilty because they committed the act. He had no literal blood on his hands so he could distance himself further from empathy or remorse. All three parts of the Dark Triad contributed very much his undoing. His self-worth was so inflated that he didn't realise he was too much of a businessman to be a gangster and too much of a gangster to be a businessman, chasing two targets and losing both. He had no idea Avon had set him up because he'd been so distracted by his attempt to become legitimate and he was so green in the legitimate business world that he didn't realise Clay Davis had played him and that donations have to be declared in public. He also still believed he could manipulate people when he was staring down the barrels of Omar and Mouzone's guns. He simply thought he could pay Omar off but thanks to his lack of empathy, it didn't occur to him that no amount of money could pay Omar off for Stringer having ordered Brandon's torture and mutilation. Omar accepted that being murdered was part of the game but torture and mutilating enemies went far beyond the game. Stringer thought so much of himself that he still believed, right until the end, he could find a way out of a corner despite realising that Omar and Mouzone were aware of having been played against each other by him.

I don't think Michael turned into a sociopath, he is just desensitized to killing, but he does feel empathy, that's also why he basically replaced Omar.

He's basically a child soldier, still redeemable despite his crimes under the right supervision.

Throughout the show, we show Stringer have fits of anger when things don’t go his way, but if it was psychopathy, they wouldn’t show emotions. Good video overall, very interesting!

To me, the most Shakespearean type tragedy of stringers story was that Avon eventually approved of sharing the towers with joe AFTER he sealed his fate. Instead of sticking up to Avon he played a very stupid and complicated game that the risk was greater than the reward. If he’s a business man and Avon wasn’t listening to what needed to be done, let him start losing more money. That part always bothered me. In his defense tho we see how he did stand up to avon over the war so maybe it had to be that way.

That’s the thing though Strunger could not be trusted. He went behind Avon’s back, tried cheat everyone around him. He could never commit to any life. Had no character, you can’t have anyone like that i your organization. To be honest with you strunger is lucky he was best friends with Avon. Because Avon would easily gotten rid of him earlier. Stringer met his end by trying to cheat and outplay everyone even though he was not the smartest guy in the room. Prop Joe met the same fate to, being smart does not make you wise. Wisdoms is smart and character. Prop joe and Stringer had smarts but they had no wisdom. Same could be said about Avon at times but Avon and slim Charles had more wisdom than everybody on the show. Even though Avon is in jail he is a live and he will get out.Slim Charles made all the way to the end.

To me, the show is about life cycle, cirlce of change - Uroboros. At the end of the show, you see how some of the characters took roles of the ol'reliable: Sydnor became McNulty, Michael became Omar, Duquan became Bubbles, Marlo became a Stringer, Rhonda became Phelan while Daniels is new.. Rhonda. Also note how Carver softly took a place of Daniels in show and how Hauk became two-timing mf. A cycle of life.

This show had lots of Easter eggs. When talking about channeling energy, an image of Gervonte Davis appears. Not only is Davis from west Baltimore, but the Boxing coach Cuddyvwas based off his coach Calvin Ford.

This is an amazing work on the greatest street violence show ever made..it's funny how a monster like marlo or stringer can make you forget how avon used dark persuasion on his own nephew to only get 7 years, stringer was a greedy psycho, marlo was a monster, avon seemed more human despite killing civilians and torturing omar boyfriend..avon tried to save stringer despite him killing his nephew, avon gave money to cutty to help the kids, the first time we see avon he's admonesting d'angelo for unecessarily shooting a guy...none of these suckas showed remorse or morals except d'angelo and omar..and one of the worst character here was the lawyer levy..he was responsible for the death of a innocent witness. Boadie was a hypocrite, he blamed marlo for doing to lil kevin exactly what he did to wallace..the lesson from the wire is, the only way to win the game is not playing...Great video!!

All these characters that are being pointed out, if HBO was thinking, they could've made a spin-off from every single one. Could've been a "Wire Universe" just like the Power Universe.

🤔Greatest show ever.. You gotta do one solely on Marlo Stanfield, as he appeared to be textbook, sociopathic.. Digress.. I see you don't reply to comments here but be interested in what software you use for videos... 🤔 You self taught or some media expert /psychology student etc.. ... Either way, very well done... 👍

I wonder who had more bodies on the streets wee bey or Chris P. I assume chris had at least a couple before we meet him, but bey won a couple wars along side the Barksdales and weather he was recruited or more likely came up with Avon. He ain'this number 1 hitter without a couple bodies, but they imply that bey was putting in work young when they talk about Namond and bey at his age.

Chris reminds me of the real life MALIK who was a soldier for the Preacher Crew. I believe Malik was in the Armed Forces just as well, cause of the strategic tatics he used against rival drug dealers. Except Malik whos real name was Anthony Boatwrite was a socialpath.
