    Re: The Wire - Season 4

    Well I just finished season 4 tonight and no doubt this is the best show I've ever seen. I cannot take any other cop show serious after watching all four seasons.

    I gotta say the character development and the heart really separates this from any other show. I really want to write more but its late and its bed time. And I can't believe how low a post count this thread has! OS get out and watch this show!

      Best show on TV in my opinion, I can't wait, I know sparks will fly once Marlo's crew starts messing around with the Russians.

            I have a question..which kid merked Bodie? I know for sure it wasn't Michael..
            Also, dookie seems to be headed on a D-Boy route...I could forsee "from rags to riches" plot with this kid.

              I'm pretty sure it was that Spider kid that Cutty lost to the darkside.

                Wasn't his story a little underdeveloped? The only thing we know is that he he stopped going to the gym because the coach was banging his moms?

                  Re: The Wire - Season 4

                  Yeah it was. I remember thinking "WTF is Spider" when Cutty starting asking about him every other scene.

                  EDIT: actually I was wrong. This is from episode guide on the official site.....

                  On his corner, Bodie's having a slow night, along with Poot and Spider, who is now working the corner. When Poot alerts him to Chris approaching, Bodie refuses to leave. "This is my corner. I ain' runnin'." He fires at the cars Snoop and Chris are ducking behind, as Poot pleads with him to run. Unable to convince Bodie to flee, Poot finally runs for cover, passing a young hooded boy - O-Dog, one of Snoop and Chris's trainees - who creeps up to Bodie and shoots him in the head. Bodie falls to the ground and is finished with a second shot to the head. He lays there dead, as O-Dog jogs off to join his mentors.

                    I started watching WIRE in season 4. I've recently been watching season 1 on BET. It's amazing to see how the team was first assembled as well as the O.G's like Barksdale's crew, Omar. Also Bubble's storyline and the corruption McNulty had to go against within the department. Lester Freeman is the man! - dude could have had is own show. Great stuff.

                      I finally broke down and got Season 1 at BEST BUY a few minutes ago at the reasonable price of $54.99.

                        UPDATE This is really a terrific show. I've already watched 8 episodes, and there hasn't been a dull moment. The equal depiction of both sides of the law makes for riveting entertainment. I can't believe McNulty picked up Omar while his kids were in the car. As a former Marylander, I'm ashamed I haven't seen this show earlier. Please advise on spoilers as I plan to watch all the seasons.

                          I haven't seen an episode in season 4 yet because I've got the basic cable but my boy let me borrow his seasons 1-3. I absolutely love the show. I've got 1 episode left in season 3 then I'm gonna need a fix!

                            Probably going to pace my spending and pick up SEASON 2 ($54.99) in a month and then SEASON 3 ($83.99) in another month.

                              It gets better Jaybee. From what I've read, people that are from Maryland say that its like visiting home everytime they watch it. Food joints, street names and the people are very accurate.

                              What is your take on The Wires portrayal of Baltimore?

                              Also, you can get season 3 for 65 bucks at Frys Electronics, or go to Outpost.com

                                Couldn't tell you Mike. I grew up in or around Port Deposit Maryland from '64-'74 (ages 8-18) and traveled to Baltimore to see the Bullets, Orioles and Colts six times total. Never toured the city, and of course it has changed dramatically since then. Port Deposit was about 45 miles from B-More.
