Just started seas. 2 of The Wire.. please brehs ...

[Eastside Get The Money]

Worst of the series but still a great season
And after working on docks this past summer it puts in all into perspective

 

[the cool]

I don't know why anyone would skip a season of a show. Season 2 shows how the drugs get into Baltimore, so it's not like it's not important. It also builds around the characters of the cops.

This thread gets made every 3-4 months too, I swear. Almost as bad as the "BRING BACK THE NATION OF DOMINATION" threads in TSC

They could of showed how the drugs got in with one episode. Not an entire season

the ONLY thing that made season 2 acceptable was how they tied it into mcnaulty's character from the end of season 1 being punished and having to take a break from the force, so it allowed us 2 still follow mcnaulty but for the most part like i said if dude dont wanna watch it he dont have 2, altho it was a few funny scenes (the hooker operation) but lets be real season 2 was an attempt by HBO 2 lure more cac's 2 watch the show a la the sopranos.

 

[Zebruh]

Season 2 is slow but honestly, it opens up to what the show really is about, and helps set up more shyt.

Plus it got a couple of the best moments in the series

 

[Trust Me]

I'm on episode 5 right now ... I'll get to the end eventually .. I just had to take 24 hours to let the site of them titties in episode 4 sink in ..

That Cac hoes body is just ..

Loved season 2...never understood the incessant whining bout the docks..for one they didn't dominate the season THAT much...the cops and the barksdale gang were still in it plenty...for two, the docks story arc was great all into itself...frank and the greek, the union politics, the struggle of a decaying working class, the comedy of Ziggy and Nick,etc..a show focused entirely on the docks would've been dope and i would've watched

Honestly it seems as if the concept of the wire is a bit beyond the comprehension of some its target audience. The whole point of the wire revolves around how people from lower socioeconomic climates deal with reality, not simply thugs, drugs, and catching the bad guys.

The entire premise behind the dock scenario essentially is showcas that people from urban demographics whom are typical stereotyped as minorities; are not the only ones engaging in illegal criminal enterprise. Even factions of "hardworking", everyday white people engage in graft to "get ahead".

I could go on and on, but cats in here blatantly telling on themselves for advising others to skip a whole season thus further reenforcing their misunderstanding of all the pieces being connected...

I wonder how many books season 2 haters have read combined. I would bet my life on some type of correlation there.

 

[Urahara_Kisuke]

@ all the "oh you like season 2? You must be white!" comments.

:sheed:

 

[dennis roadman]

two things will make me end a conversation about the wire real early:

"season 2 is the worst season"
"stringer bell is my favorite character, he was so smart yet gangsta"

when someone brings up the show, i ask them how they feel about season 2 and stringer right away. if they answer with the above, i bid them good day

threadstarter could easily skip S2 and go to S3 where it's back to the piff with the barksdales. seeing S2 isn't a prerequisite for the seasons after it.
