Nothing would be spoiled. It doesnt even contain any clips.

For anyone interested, Idris Elba (actor who played Stringer) is working on some pretty interesting hip-hop music. no clue if/when it'll see the light of day but the sessions i heard were pretty cool.

I thought the McNulty reveal was a bit of a spoiler [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] But CB posted it, and he's awesome so he gets a free pass.

DB - I'm actually curious as to what a Brit's take on this series would be. Imo, it's incredibly American in its vernacular and feel (haha I mean this in a positive way). But it's also ultimately an exploration of the human condition, so I think would easily cut across cultural barriers of understanding.

I have written this many times on 2p2 - this is an incredible series, perhaps the best produced in American television history.

I didn't think the McNulty thing was that big of a deal. You can't keep a good man down forever, ya dig?

I also bumped a Wire thread the other day in OOT to say that the Season 4 DVD set is available for preorder on Amazon. Just double-checked, and it's still there for 39 bucks (awesome price). In fact, every season is available right now for approximately 40, so if you don't have them already, you should get them.

Al is correct, and I'll go a bit further, it's the best show in television history, and one of the most significant pieces of art in the past 50 years.

I feel like you can't fully appreciate The Wire until you've lived or spent a considerable about of time in Baltimore.
