fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
 

After having watched the 1st and 2nd seasons and midway through the 3rd, it's obvious that this show is a masterpiece, mostly based on the strength of its many characters. But which one is your favorite, in other words, which one do you wish had more screen time every time the show ends? (Obviously I didn't include EVERY character, but the ones that I think have a realistic shot at getting a lot of votes. My apologies if I left off anyone)

Hey I hear ya, Bunk probably has the best lines/delivery in that show... but I had to vote for Omar... all his scenes are electric.

It's hard for me to choose, because there are a lot of characters I like. Bunk might be my choice, Omar being another obvious one. Some characters I haven't seen mentioned here yet that I also really like: Cutty, Bubbles, Colvin, Landsman (in a perverse way). EDIT: I used to like Stringer a lot more, but I think that was when I had only seen chunks of season 1 and season 3.
