You know how I know this show is great? Burrell’s an a******, and yet I still find myself wanting to see him stand up to Royce.

might be time for a rewatch

i like the friendship between Naymond and Michael

Reminds me of Avon and Stringer a bit

Omar little is too f***in clean man

Season 4 of the wire was really good, but i still think season 3 was better

I loved the focus on the teens growing up and reckoning with adulthood

I loved presbylwyzcki, him and Bunny were the highlights of the season imo. Appreciated how they shifted focus into other areas and saw the other side of their work post-policehood

Bunk and Lester were taming care of business

Bubbles 🥲

The shifting corner dynamics was very interesting too, with prop joe and marlo trying to play politics

Omar is still THAT nigga

I miss mcnulty, and as soon as he gets back he inadvertently gets bodie killed

BODIE 😭 that was my f***in dawg man, one of my favorite characters

Overall, S4 gets a 8/10 from me

Season 1 = 7/10

Season 2 = 6/10

Season 3 = 9/10

Season 4 = 8/10

just started it and holy s***

Bro what in the actual f*** is jimmy doing lmfaoooo

Ive never seen such a volatile individual in my life

He makes Bubbs look like a saint

21st anniversary is on June 2nd btw

Oh jimmy

Jimmy jimmy jimmy

How far you have fallen

Season 5 is looking like a 8/10 for me, idk what folks were talking about saying its the weakest one. Better than S2 for sure, and a little above S1

5 ain’t better than 1 I’m sorry

Almost done with s2 on my rewatch
Seasons better than I remembered

I respect it

Might be recency bias, but S 5 is like a matured S 1.

Seeing the crew trying to break into a new case, the same as they tried to for Avon and them, but with more experience, more grievances, the same ol bull s\*\*\* but this time they dont want to fall the same way they did before. Like lester doing illegal wiretaps, Jimmy becoming a necromancer, Omar scrapping by alone this time, Beadie and her relationship to Jimmy, Greggs working the homicide case, Marlo following in a similar path but not quite to Stringer

To me its like a make it or break it scenario, there is no new dawn in Baltimore and its painfully obvious and its do or die. Only the folks who realized what the game is are doing well, like cutty, bubs, prez, etc

U should join the wire Reddit, they kinda over a***yze the show sometimes but they provide great depth in some seasons and themes.

I feel u on S5 tho fasho, the full circleness of the show wss amazing

And wire spoilers don’t exist show came out 20+ years ago
