I still don't know why Bodie would ride for Little Kevin when he got Lex killed. And Little Kevin did snitch because he told Randy when he didn't have to. Randy wasn't in the game.

It wasn't about lil kev he just had enough of dudes being killed like nothing and his spot being snatched

Am I the only one who didn't think season 5 was bad?

Also have to take into consideration I haven't seen it again since it aired in 08
Nah, I have no idea why it gets the rap that it does. I enjoyed the newspaper companies perspective. Likewise I enjoyed the conclusion to all the characters. Each to their own I guess :manny:

Because of that TERRIBLE serial killer plot line.

But I agree the season as whole wasn't that bad, nikkas just being dramatic. I don't understand how anyone could recommend not watching the end of this series, if only to see how they finish the stories of some of the characters they built up over 2-4 seasons.

The fake serial killer angle is the big part that I see the most people have a problem with.

I enjoyed season 5, and I liked the ending of the series. I thought they did a nice job of tying everything up. I'd put it 4 > 3=1 > 5 > 2.

I honestly had low expectations of season 4 because of Stringer getting clipped off, but I thought season 4 was the best when when it was all said and done. It's a perfect season of TV, and even the theme song that season was the best.

Season 2 works a lot better once you see the whole show. At first season 2 was jarring as fukk. I was wondering where all the white guys on the dock came from. It seemed so left-field. Once it became clear that they started focusing on a different theme every season (school system, decline of print, drug war, unions, etc) it made more sense, but even then, season 2 really sticks out from the rest. A lot of people when they start watching it now ask me if they can just skip season 2 all together.

It's like Breaking Bad season 2. I always tell people if they can make it through that, they're good. For both shows, the 2nd seasons were the slowest IMO.
