The Wire

[SuckFohh]

Nope...It was just this weird moment that was never followed up on in any way. 1

I read somewhere that there was supposed to be a follow up but was cut out since the show was cut short.

But I thought that brief moment at least showed why Rawls was constantly calling somebody else gay or making sexual statements.....all an attempt to deflect attention from himself.

This is completely true. One of the reasons why the wire was so good. the characters were very deep. they just weren't able to expound on all of it like they would have liked.

Stick with it. You'll be happy you did. Look up where Shakespeare (Marlowe's biggest rival) was born next.

interesting . I was looking back at some episodes and Marlo was actually pretty manipulative and smart . He was a snake

I went through and watched all the seasons again. On season 5 right now where Marlo's crew almost had Omar until he jumped off the balcony on some batman shyt

They really made Omar untouchable. Lol @ me going to the store and buying a box of honey nut Cheerios and it made me think of Omar (not in that way )

For the 1000th time: Donnie Andrews, the real-life Omar (guy who saved Omar in prison and was killed in the ambush), jumped from an even higher floor

Was just gonna say this.....

Look at it this way, Marlo had to have done some ill shyt for Chris and Snoop to respect him. You saw the way he came at Chris in the "My name is my name" scene

The minimalistic almost primal nature of his character is what made him "scary". Most cats who calmly tell you what they're going to do to you typical have full intention to do so and pro'ally done it before

I don't think Marlo was ever supposed to be scary, he was just supposed to be seen as cold and ruthless (which he was).

i totally disagree with most of the sentiment

season 2 was a great season

i just personally think most dont want to see drug dealing, ignorant shyt unless its black people doing it. which is sad cause if the writers of the wire didnt go there a argument could be made on racial stereotyping and prejudice. but the creators of the wire dared to show how not only white people sell drugs (and to an extent control the drug game) but they are arrogant in they actions cause they swear no police will even come after them. and the thing is white people def sell drugs and are heavy in this pill/ meth game. but yet 75% of all drug arrest are still black people catching the cases.

season 2 introduced us to the greek and the root of where the drugs of baltimore were coming from.

it introduced us to bro mazone (or however you spell it)

it introduced us to cheese

prop joe played a more major role in season 2

the way stringer handle shyt was more on broadcast in season 2

de angelo execution

"is the chair going to recognize we go look like some bytches" is always a classic scene or was that season 3?

avon setting shyt up in jail to get his time reduced

bodie and crew going to war in the middle of the street is a classic scene, with the kid getting killed.

stringer setting up bro mozone (again however you spell it)



it was a lot of great moments in season 2.

season 2 was a great season.
