the one problem with the wire (for me) was the lack of larger-than-life heroes, and he's pretty much the only character i give a fuck about

not all that excited by the remaining episodes now. its like watching star wars without darth vader. i understand what the writers were doing etc, but im still totally gutted. im now a huge michael williams fan though

^^ I've seen every episode like at least four times, and I'm still as obsessed as I was somewhere around 2001

That's what I loved about the show. THe fact that everyone was a regular joe. And I really enjoyed seeing the story arcs for the individual characters develop (eg. McNulty, Freemon, Marlo, Stringer, Bodie, Bubbles, etc etc).

Originally posted by Scoops HBO has consistantly had top programming on air for the past 25 years... go back to 1983 and The Hitchhiker and Not Necessarily the News and even Fraggle Rock then bring in 1st and 10, Dream On, Kids in the Hall, and Tales from the Crypt. Then in the late 90s you had Arli$$, The Sopranos, now theres Curb, Entourage and other great prgrams.. Showtime has 1 decent show, thats it. HBO > Showtime

That show was amazing. I'd never heard of Louis C.K. up until that point and I became a HUGE fan. He needs to do more comedy or shows or something, he's amazing! He did an HBO special maybe a year or two ago that I had saved on my DVR and I couldn't stop watching it. I almost peed on time.

yeah, that's definitely the attraction, everything reeks of realism and nihilism.

the street characters are all so interesting. i just need a few characters to really love, and i only had 1 and now he's dead and im feeling a little jaded! watching the final 2 eps tonight.
