The Most Tragic Character in all of Television (The Wire)

[@TBEMike]

How about I make a video on Dukie, Randy, Michael, and Naymond to really breakdown their situations. This show still amazing to this day.

[@Jarail2004]

I must respectfully disagree. Dukie is the saddest character

[@TBEMike]

That’s fair Dukie was tragic in his own right, but the show writers failed him in season 5 by making him an addict after never doing any drugs in the show before that.

@@TBEMike Go to the streets, and get some real experience. That's all it takes.

​@oepi4554 That's a lie, fam... I tried heron and didn't like it. All a do is smoke poles for 60 bucks behind the 711. No drugs or alcohol. Can't get away from the sausage tho.

I was about to say the same thing lol

​@@dankashiochosinko1080Lmfao wtf

[@jaythekid4728]

Nah Michael is a the most tragic character. Wallace is a sad story same with Dukie but Michael was trying to do right to protect his brother leading him down a bad path. Meanwhile Namond suffering from imposter syndrome gets the opportunity that really Michael deserved

something about the whitest of white boy voices saying gangster cracks me up

[@siniister710]

So many characters in the wire have a tragic ass tale tbh

[@Rary.0]

Wheres the kid? Wheres Wallace. Wheres the kid string? Wheres wallace!

[@11bornrich]

D deserved what he got too.

[@11bornrich]

Nothing tragic about Wallace, he desrved what he got. I grew up in the same life before I had double digits in my age practically born into it because of my family, those that weren't built like that stayed on the sideline. He knew what came with it and told, he deserved it. Dukie never had a chance at life from start to finish. Everyone else, their story is normal in just about any neighbourhood.

[@mm-dl8uj]

Thats a nasty view of things both of them didn’t deserve what happened to them

[@11bornrich]

@@mm-dl8uj Wallace did, he ratted. D was very stupid and loose, he couldn't hold water, he deserved it too.

[@Sweetteashane]

That conversation about chicken nuggets they had shoulda been in this clip. You could tell wallace's gears of curosity were turnin. That convo really lets 1 dive into wallace's head space.

[@leek4prez948]

Duke is the most tragic character. Wallace left and came back which ended up being his demise. Dukie couldn’t leave, he had no clean clothes, bullied by his peers and even some adults, became homeless, and ended up a herion junkie.

[@rendellparquette9314]

It's dukie ion like WATCHING dukie scenes in 5 season

[@ROB.314]

Nah I’ll say Randy and Duke

[@RatedTypeR]

This. Duke beats Randy out by smidge.

[@raslove152]

Nah the kid bubbs had under him was the saddest ish ever

[@augiejaqua8178]

You remind me of me giving a presentation also you should do video on season 4

[@outrlmts1879]

Wallace doing Heroin, not crack bro. You realize the Barksdale’s sell dope right?

[@twitchsopamanxx]

Saddest character? Snot Boogie.

[@andrifennell4339]

Dukie all day
