“At the end of the day, the King and the pawn go back into the same box because the game is The Game.” That is probably the best single sentence summary one could make of The Wire, and using the metaphor from the show is really artful. I really dig your vids, but I’m super impressed by how well you constructed that.

Yep, always kinda had a soft spot for the kids, and in a sense underestimated them. When Kenard saw Omar limping, he was disappointed because the legend of Omar that he envisioned in his mind was shattered, his fear of Omar left, and that’s how he knew he could take him out easily. Did you notice how Marlo wanted his name to be remembered, but in the end, Omar’s name is the one everyone talked about.

What I love most about Marlo’s last scene and Omar’s death is that it shows that in the end, even though he died, Omar won. He beat Marlo, whose name is even an anagram of Omar with an added L. In the end, everyone was talking about Omar with legend status, but no one even knew who Marlo was, and now there’s nothing Marlo can do to save his rep on the street, while Omar’s name will continue to ring out until people start talking about Michael.

I actually think in a way it shows that Omar didn't end up just another body but got to keep his name in death. Remember, Marlo says "my name is my name." Omar got the respect Marlo wanted because he was a man of the people. I like to think he got a proper homegoing, he did have a grandmother he took to church on Sundays.

Interesting take. I had kind of the opposite take myself. When I first saw the scene, I took it as Omar was a big name on the streets of Baltimore amongst the drug trade and the Baltimore PD, but outside of that world, he was just another dead body as a result of the crime that plagued the city. That's the beauty of a show that's written this well. Two people can have two completely different interpretations of a scene and neither is wrong.

The point is all his concern about having a reputation on the street, it's all fleeting. He's one of the most fascinating characters in Baltimore and yet the newspaper didn't even have space to write a two sentence blurb about him. They chose to cover a little fire instead. The morgue almost misidentified him. The whole point is that he'll quickly be forgotten. His obsession over his reputation in the street was a misguided descent

Heavy role in things within his “little” world. Same way a CEO mostly holds weight within the business sector and outside of that (money aside) no one would respect him more than others. So I think the point is how all that street cred BS is so fleeting and amounts to nothing to the rest of society. At least the businessman might get a line or two obituary newspaper . Omar is just another gangsta, thug , street dude etc. I think that message in itself is genuine and powerful. I lled

I agree, it was to show despite being a legend on the street, once gone you're just another body where they may not even get your name right I was locked up for a short time decades ago and there'd be people talking about they did what they did for the streets and to represent. Well I can tell you nobody from the streets came on visiting day and nobody on the streets was putting money in their accounts. It's where Stringer made the most sense saying they didn't get into this just have their name ring out on some corner. He knew ultimately that meant nothing big picture

@@CineRanterthat’s usually how the streets go, that’s why slim Charles is a super underrated at we character because he knew all of marlo moves that’s why he lasted he stayed off his radar and didn’t take the big position marlo offered him , he waited him out because he knew a guy like marlo doesn’t last long in the game and as long as sim Charles been around they came across a lot of marlo back then, also to add to that goes hand to hand when weebay told his son a guy like marlo come around breaking the rules they ended that person quickly. Marlo just a guy that got lucky and was in a vacant seat, even avon knew Marlo reign would be short. Marlo was never a true king, the symbolism is when he’s sitting at window number 2 when him and avon talk, also Marlo became stronger bell in the end which stronger was a number 2 and Marlo had on a suit just like stringer. If they did another wire season or a few more, marlo would be back in the game but he would be to smart for cops to figure out especially cause he has all the money.

It’s simple. It was meant to show that for all you do in life none of it matters in death, you’re just another body. For as feared and known as Omar was in his walk of life, in the grand scheme of things that meant nothing in his death. Not only that but that’s yet another one of the many many times the show creators show you just how dysfunctional the city of baltimores infrastructure is. This seems egregious to tag someone’s dead loved one as the wrong person, but it’s just random paperwork that’s gonna get overlooked or misplaced.

6:20. I found it interesting too. Gus knew who "Fat Faced Rick" was. He recognized his name through the list of campaign contributors to various city council members, and how he got a profitable real estate deal through it. So I wonder why he never knew who Joe was, given Joe was a higher ranking member in the drug trade. It could've been a testament to how Joe operated. Avon and Marlo "wanted their names to ring out." Joe, on the other hand, kept a lower profile. As Joe said on several occasions "buy for a dollar sell for two"

Exactly what I was thinking about that scene. A legend on the streets, in a game lots of people don't know is doing on. Stringer: " You know, Avon, you gotta think about what we got in this game for, man. Huh? Was it the rep? Was it so our names could ring out on some fucking ghetto streetcorner, man? No, man. There's games beyond the fucking game."

How have I only just noticed the name of the medical examiner on Omar's tag is MICHAELSON. if that isn't a dead give away to Michael becoming the new Omar, i don't know what is. I've seen this show in it's entirety at least 5 times and I still spot new stuff on re-watches.

The game does not change. The players in the game change. The firepower changes but, not the violence of the streets. Omar saying Michael is just a kid was watching himself come full circle. Father Time is undefeated

He didn’t whistle “The Farmer in the Dell.” While the tune is the same, he was actually whistling, “A Hunting We Will Go,” a tribute to Elmer Fudd from the Looney Tunes cartoons.

What I got from the scene was. The county coroner possibly also went to school with Omar like Clay Davis, and being the coroner you know that it's only a matter of time when a major source of job security will soon be on the slab eye to eye with you.

The name tag mix up, is to show , that no matter what you've think you've done or accomplished, when you die.....your back to no one. It shows your not near as big as you think you where. He was a king in the streets, but in death? It's back to the real world ,with real people "the mourge workers" were they've never heard of you. It's to show a world within a world. It shows , Anyone could have been an Omar.

12 secs in. Imma say because Omar was VERY well respected by the ppl. HE swapped the name tag because "Omar" can't die. The Hood NEEDS an Omar at all times. That's where young pretty boy took over forgot his name

I thought the part with the name tags was showing exactly how screwed up the Baltimore Medical Examiners Office was. They can't keep a simple name tag with the patient. Plus they were bring persons from temp agency to make things worse. I know they have temp agencies for the medical field, but to need that help in the ME's office is something else for both agency, ME dept. and the worker. Canard being Omar Littles killer shows how young the HOPPERS/corner kids are getting. What is next toddlers running the corners? What was Canard's age 8-9. everyone claims to be Omar's killer, but when the news reports a 8 year Canard being arrested and charged for Omar's murder Snoop's and every other persons claim goes out the window and down the drain. Plus Canard will be out of prison by 18-21 and everyone will remember him at least taking the rap, doing time for the murder of Omar Little regardless of the truth.
