First episode of season four, a few thoughts --
-Using Prez as the vehicle to get us into the schools is great, I'm really gald to see his character staying on the show
-I thought they established a connection with the group of kids awfully quickly -- but that has been a strong suit of this show since the outset... but I still remember Wallace from the first season and how richly they developed his character in a pretty limited amount of time
-The play between Daniels and McNulty was priceless, but it has the potential to be a big tease for the show -- overall, I think McNulty "just" walking a beat is fine, as long as he is still involved in the main plotlines somehow
-I can't help but wonder whether Bunk's new partner at Homicide (white bald guy named "Norris") is going to develop into a real character -- he's played by the recent real-life Baltimore Police Commissioner Ed Norris, and to date his screen highlight has been a puking scene... stay tuned there
