Def not enough love for Bodie and D in the thread; however, I still voted for Omar as hes just sick. his scene in the courtroom was one of the best TV scenes

This is like asking me to choose which of my children I love most. I refuse to vote.




(Omar's obv. the best)


Also, no love for Chris and Snoop?

I'm surprised there hasn't been more love for McNulty... when he spent 3 hours of his own time just to stick Rawls with all the bodies on the boat, that made me laugh as hard as any other scene in that show.

McNulty is a great character for sure. But, since he was more central for most of the show for so far, he gets a little overexposed. Characters like Bunk and Omar get somewhat less face time and consequently most of it tends to be awesome. Also, the fuller presentation of McNulty also reveals the extent to which he's a self-destructive [censored], which negatively affects his likability, at least in my eyes.

I always really enjoy scenes with Herc and Carver, but I gotta agree with everyone who says Omar is the best character.

Bubbles is [censored] terrible. Die already.

Blasphemy!

I think the only characters in the history of the show that I've really wanted to disappear were Johnny and Ziggy. And by the end of that season I think they did Ziggy well.

QFT.. when I first saw the Ziggy character I thought, christ, I have to last a whole season with this moron? But by the end of the show I really started to feel some sympathy for him.

This would be an easier thread if we were asked to list characters we hated, since everybody in the wire is awesome.

Answer: Bro Mozone is too much of a cartoon. Hate him. The only cool factor is that his manservant is the real DeAndre from The Corner.
