Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
[ QUOTE ]
The only cool factor is that his manservant is the real DeAndre from The Corner. [/ QUOTE ] I'm impressed at how much of this type of stuff they manage to sneak in. Snoop is supposedly playing more or less herself - her character has the same name. The white mustachioed lieutenant in the Western is the actual Jay Landsman. And so on. |

Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
S4 introduces 2 characters I really like alot, but through S3, my favorites:
1) Omar 2) Stringer 3) McNulty 4) Bunk Think DeezNuts once told me that Omar is the character Simon gets questioned on the most (as being the most unrealistic). Simon acknowledges that while this person exists (i.e. guy who robs drug dealers), he extended the archetype to give the audience "someone living by his own rules and code", an increasingly difficult / basically impossible task in this era. The fact that Omar feels grounded and real is a testament to the actor, imo. -Al |

Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
Gump - if we include S4 he is a real standout to me (though sometimes I feel the actor is not that strong). Also the Carcetti character is brilliant, imo.

Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
Just as a random aside, I was extremely disappointed they didn't keep the S1 intro music for the other seasons. I loved that song. Instead, they remixed it up and made it worse.

Other good ones. The Deacon is actually a former crime lord that Ed Burns busted. The white bald homicide cop is a disgraced former baltimore cop/politician Kurt Schmoke (ex b'more mayor) as a social worker in S3 |

Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
Omar and Stringer, obviously.
Cheese, Michael, and Snoop get honorable mentions. |

[ QUOTE ] Bubbles is [censored] terrible. Die already. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, it got to be a bit much by S4, imo. He was a great character but his S4 arc felt somewhat redundant (probably the point, he is a junkie afterall) and I didn't care as much for him. -Al |

Re: fans of The Wire: which character is your favorite?
How can you all not give Bunk the love???
Classic Bunk(may not be verbatim): Bunk: Everyone has to know their roles. Lester: What's your role, then? Bunk: I'm just a humble muthaf*er with a big d*ck. Lester: I think you're giving yourself too much credit. Bunk: You're right. I ain't all that humble. |
