None of the black cops and none of the white criminals can act.

Also Omar is closer to fitting into the Marvel universe than a realistic drama.

>Omar
>implying he's the worst offender

*teleports behind you*

everything outside of season 2 and 3 are major snore fest but I guess that's to be expected from a show written by a journalist.

>>83267754
>white criminals
What did he mean by this?

>>83267810
female lesbian cop and lester were also terrible.

>"serious" crime drama
>main character has a fucking catch phrase

>>83268385
It wasn't like he was constantly saying it

>>83267810
The dialogue when he and omar have the alley confrontation is horrible

>>83268385
It's like Sopranos "What are you gunna do?"

It's not a catch phrase that ends off the episode with seinfield music that plays it out, it's his defense for being an asshole all the time. Mcnutty victimizing himself when he's the destructive asshole.

>being this retarded

>>83267691
First, you gotta remember when the Wire came out. HBO was just starting their epic tv show trend you so much enjoy now. Second, the wire brought the drug war and its effects into upper white American homes. Third, after the wire starting explaining the process of getting wire taps and cell phone tracking we saw middle America begin to demand that privacy laws matter.

So while you may not enjoy it, it will be one of the most important shows HBO ever made.

>>83270867
Also thanks to The Wire people realized that Black people exist, truly a revolutionary TV show.

Is this what Baltimore is actually like

>"You're a loose cannon, McNulty. I oughta throw you off the force!"
>he actually throws McNulty off the force, just like he said

If you're over 25 it's actually sad that you're on this website

>>83272680
>because old guys never sit on the toilet

oh son. are you ever in for a world of hurt.

>>83268201
not remembering Bodie is even worse than not remembering Avon

>>83272680
It's sad that you're on here at all. Just a little less sad than him being on here. Why get superior about it

>>83267691
People go on about how realistic it is but there's literally zero character development

>>83267754
Omar is a composite of several real life people. One of them even jumped from a balcony to avoid being killed like in the show. Only the real guy jumped from the 6th floor instead of the 5th.

>>83272841
there is, and that's not what realistic means

>>83273007
Anytime they attempt to do character development, they end up killing them off.
The wire is nihilistic trash for pseudo intellectuals

>>83273032
Most of the cops get some development and they live, nice buzzwords though

>>83272809

So, D'Angelo didn't have a character growth just because he got killed?
>they end up killing them off
Who's Prezbo, Poot, McNulty and Carver? Just fucking stop baiting you tasteless faggot and fuck off.
