I've not really watched The Wire.. Neither have I really thought about how far the writers went to make it as authentic as possible either until I read this..

Yeah they only list him on shows he was the dept head/lead for which is sad because he's worked on soooo many movies including like enemy of the state, for richer or poorer hell just about anything in the pa,va,dc,md and some NY stuff


He met method man and called me like " hey you like rap have you ever head of Clifford smith " and I was like nah ... Then like a week later I found out Clifford is meths real name smh

The Corner is the shit.


TK Carter gives one of the better acting performances ive ever seen.

[Strikta]

Yeah, he was awesome in it.

Fat Curt was dope too.. & the dude who played Gary.

Fran was also good.

Very dope mini-series.. I actually watched it a few weeks ago.

Oh.

I always just knew him as Charles S. Dutton.

Surviving the Game was raw as fuck.

Matta fact I'ma watch that shit tonight.. Gary Busey goes ham in that shit.

[Frank Metts]

You never seen Roc? And you from bmore? Shit put Charles S Dutton on the map plus is was one of the first shows to openly dabble is some deep racial issues, very eye opening and well written

Black people hate Season 2. I thought Season 5 was the worst because the newspaper scenes seemed unnecessarily thrown in just to spite David Simon's former bosses. It's too neat how the newspaper almost never was mentioned on the show, then it became the biggest story line for the last season. Still, you have to watch it to reach the conclusion.

And you absolutely need to watch Season 2 to see why the major shifts in Season 3 happen. I won't spoil it. But it suffices to say that the biggest plots of Season 3 only make sense in the context of Season 2.

That's how The Wire works. Nothing stands alone. Every plot began before the viewer gets dropped into it, and every plot continued after the show ended. It's about a cycle.

Season 2 is a whole set up season it's necessary but can get boring but after you see season 3 and 4 you understand that if someone was to just watch season 2 they would hate the show

It's all relative. One of my best friends says Season 2 is the best, probably because he comes from a family of blue-collar laborers.

I didn't like Ziggy, but besides him, the characters were fine. Nick's girlfriend has A-plus tits. Beadie, Vondas and The Greek are good characters. And the scene with Jimmy and the prostitutes is the funniest.

[...the Nagger]

I didn't like Frank much

or the whole "union" bit with the fat guy

and ziggy is actually why I didn't like the entire season

I was so glad when he left the way he did it actually fit him and it made me feel good to see him go away
