Re: Interesting artcile on HBO\'s The Wire
Great show, can't wait for Season 5. It's different from a lot of other shows that deal with crime in that it don't dehumanize any of the characters, which is what makes them so real and endearing. I love all the characters but Snoop is my favorite. The actor who plays her (Felicia Pearson) has lead a life much like Snoop's. She was born while both her parents were serving sentences and got locked up when she was 14 for shooting a woman. She got out when she was 20 and had the fortune of running into the actor who plays Omar at a car wash she was working at and subsequently getting a part through his recommendation.
