[@denismartin4525]

Not sure about that. But would have loved an expansion of Brother Muzone's charactor. If you looking to fascinate yourself with the game, I'd agree with your statement. But a guy like me, much rather look for the representation of the full spectrum of what brother's all about to include brothers like Bro Muzone. Growing up in Brkln, and hanging out with my college buddies, I know brothers who fit the Bro Muzone profile . Many of whom have become attorneys and now members of profession. It would have made for real good television.

PONCHODAGOD Marlo had this disturbingly calm and clear vision of endgame. The only thing that stirred real emotion is when someone used his actual name when they spoke ill of him. It's like a pure form of evil, not tainted. American dream turned on its ear.

Every scene matters in this show. The Wire one of the most beautifully written, acted, and realistic portrayals of the social commentaries and dysfunctional institutions that betray most of these characters. If this show is being used as curriculum in universities than you know the significant importance that The Wire has bred on the sociology,politics,education,economics,and media.

[@TheWireFan-ur7wq]

Chris Martinez I was only joking. I took that quote from a Barrack Obama parody. What you said in your first comment is 100% correct. In fact, I believe that several actors from the show visited Harvard in Massachusetts to speak to students about the social aspects that The Wire had to offer. Like every season showed a different type of decay on society in Baltimore.

[@StayFrost224]

Was the parody on SNL? I think I heard that before haha. Yeah man this show had an amazing message, the education system in season 4 was the best imo.

[@TheWireFan-ur7wq]

Chris Martinez Nah I heard it off a video on YT. I think Season 3 was the best because of the Barksdale - Stanfield war, but Season 4 had the best message. The decay of the Educational System and the neglect of the Urban "Street" kids.

Stringer lied to Omar, said mauzone tortured his boyfriend to spare his life when omar got him the first time. Mauzone was Avon's boy, and so stringer double crossed him both. Thats why in the scene the night before he dies, Avon asked him casually(but awkwardly) where he was gonna be tommorow, Avon tipped him off. No need to be loyal after what Stringer did to D'angelo.

[@ricocori2447]

sopranos = novel, make believe, an exageration and glorification of what NJ mafia ever was (you can watch the real NJ mafia talking about it on YT) they just a bunch of low lifes belive me... high quality TV series non the less, the writing, casting, acting, plots, locations ezz ezz top notch, but a make believe non the less the wire = based on the work of a guy who was living among police, david simon, no make belive, streets as they are... not much to say here, the wire stands alone in a genre of his own, thats why its unique,, the sopranos is just on the top 3 tv series ever made if you want, the wire is just not on that list :)

[@bobmiter3045]

Bunch of low lives? They are the real gangsters as opposed to the small time dope fiends who work the streets. I think the realism of the wire is over exaggerated wi characters such as the Greek and Brither Mizoune being completely out of place, as well as Omar strolling the streets without getting shot for so long. Sometimes e wire focused too much on the social message of the story that they forgot to make it entertaining e.g. Season 4

People would complain about the all new cast and time period adjustment that would inevitably have to happen. The show would also have to start from scratch, since the original show was one big continuous story about Baltimore and they can't continue anything seemlessly after that big of a tjme jump. If they were going to bring it back on any level, a spin-off or spiritual successor would be best.

It's enuff of black exploitation on TV as it is

[@sassythesasquatch6847]

@@Delightfully_Bitchy The Wire is phenomenal because from beginning to end It’s just a series of events rather than a structural story per season, the city just continues on and another season would do great only with a few returning characters to justify it being in the universe. However returning characters from the streets would feel contrived considering the fact that no one in the game in the first 5 seasons were old for a reason and had great symbolic meaning.

[@Delightfully_Bitchy]

@@Delightfully_Bitchy You misinterpreted the ending and possibly my meaning, the connections were how every facet of society from the criminal sphere, dockworkers, schools, newspapers, politics and law enforcement all co-exist and influence each other, one big system full connections (wires), the series derives it’s name for the characters like mcnulty and many others who think just focusing on one wire will fix things but the machine keeps going unchanged. The entire story doesn’t have anything that could be related to your average story structure imo which is why it’s so special. No characters but bubbles gets redeemed but far from any contemporary narrative structure but far more realistic and human. Only delving into characters is the only thing i can think of.

7:32 i absolutely love Omar's facial expression to marlo's "that's my money" 😂 he's like "you say what shorty"

I will not begrudge a fellow Wire aficionado (especially one that has uploaded a most excellent vid) but McNulty had some great scenes. When he went to Levy's office, when Rawl's kicks his ass, in the court room with stringer. The best is when he confronts D'Angelo's mom. (IMO). anyway. Thanks for the upload. Good stuff.

No Frank Sobotka scenes = fail. Big time.

those useless episodes 🤦🏽‍♂️

@@lamejdavid4254 Nah b 2nd season is super weird if you aren't expecting it but it's so good if you give it a chance. The shit that goes down in that season is some of the most terrifying in the whole show. It shows just how pervasive the war on drugs has rippled through the community of baltimore, it isn't just drug gangs vs the cops. Like Lester says in season 1 "You follow the drugs, you get drug addicts and drug dealers. You follow the money, and you don't know where the fuck you're headed". Season 2 is the Wire following the money.

@@lamejdavid4254 Really!? That were the connect comes in. The real power behind the seen. I thought season 2 was weak until I rewatched it.

[@tyheavenlywings7760]

if you dont like sesason 2 you were only in it for the 'hood' scenes, not the show

[@escherpainting8622]

"Why ain't in your repertoire" is hilarious

[@anthonymason4999]

Lol

[@dmacmcmanus95]

This person really likes the drug storyline a lot

[@howesyboy4lyfe]

Dillon McManus best storyline 👀

[@shuaguin5446]

True not much police quote, and they are plenty of awesome ones. Very little Bubles, Colvin and no Gus either. Both awesome charaters...

[@Delightfully_Bitchy]

Those were the scenes that got the nearly all airtime on BET, so those are the scenes people know best. Reminder: BET was, and always will be, staffed by idiots.

“Nevermind the why. Why aint yo repertoire no more nigga.” Snoop: “YERRRRRRRR.” Fun fact: Snoop is one of the characters in the show that is actually a Baltimore native in real life. Same with Prop Joe, and a couple others.
