prop joe had pretty much no fatal flaw other than his dumbass fuckup nephew lol. Slim charles was the shit also.

My favorite show by far. There is pretty much nothing to hate about it.

I cant really convince my friends about it, since it deviates to much of their normal tv habbits (every episode has to make sense on its own 45min span, purely black and white charaters, clear defined moral preachings, etc)

Wierdly, the only show I found even half as entertaining was twin peaks

Most people aren't used to the slow developing stories with in depth analysis of situations. I've never seen any show close to The Wire's realism and storytelling.

Spoilers for thoses who haven't watched

+ Show Spoiler +
yesterday I watched the episode where Prop Jo get shot, DAMN !. I was just thinking about him mid-episode about how he has been around a long time controlling the drug seller group since avon and stringer were gone and how he was pretty much a "main" character. That took me by surprise. Honestly I prefered him to Marlo

Season 1 and 2 TINY spoiler alert!

+ Show Spoiler +
I ran through season 1 and 2, and now I'm on 3 (simple logic, really ).
I love the fact that some of the main players on both "sides" are kept around for the first three seasons at least. As always, HBO does a fantastic job in creating a credible look and feel, and the story is very intriguing.

Here is a link to the scene with Snoop in the hardware store. Definitely one of my favorite scenes. There is so much at play in this short scene its amazing. Things to check out: the way the other store patrons stare at her and she walks through, the employee's eyes when she is talking about a .22 cal, the transaction, and her talking to Chris. I loved the way that she repeated everything the employee told her in one sentence to Chris. She got schooled.

Snoop @ the hardware store.

For like two weeks last year, all me and a friend (he lived in the flat next door) did was smoke weed and marathon The Wire. I have no regrets because it was such an incredible show, we were both poor so we could only afford weed and 1 meal a day, probably wasn't very bright, but I'd do it again.

Also, I liked how gritty the characters were, if that makes any sense.
LOUD NOISES!!!
