proof avon and slim charles are massively underrated in this thread.

(edit: don't watch if you haven't seen season 3!)

The music to s2 is by far the best, but it's totally ruined by the singer's Grover impression. I'd also give the overall crown to s1.

[censored] you for hating on Tom Waits.

Tom Waits or no, I think the cover for Season 1 is clearly the best rendition of that song that they've used in the four seasons so far.

I don't know how everyone in this thread has ignored Carver. In terms of development and sheer force, the guy is amazing. While I agree other characters in the show have better lines and more snappy dialog, Carver's scenes are the true [censored]. He evolved from a lazy [censored] into an effective police who really does care. He's still got awesome lines and his scenes with Herc over the years have really shown a broad range. If anyone exemplifies the good of the show, it's either Carver or Bunny. And Carver's better.

Which reminds me of another great Omar quote:

"Just like you, man. I got the shotgun, you got the briefcase."

I cannot stand Carver. He has irked me from the beginning. That scene where he and Herc are driving to pick up Bodie from the juvy prison makes me want to gouge out my eyeballs.
