    I think David Simon just hates the guy. He's at least funny in this.

    Every time I watch Season 2 of The Wire, I just want Sergei to cut Ziggy's head off.

      He's more enjoyable than boring a** Lt. Flick and Iceman.

      Those 2 have the combined personality of my computer desk.

        To each their own, I guess. Iceman is my favorite character so far, by a fairly wide margin. Just because he isn't constantly flapping his gums about nonsensical crap doesn't make him a non-compelling character.

        The contrast between his character and Ziggy's is something I guess they needed to have, though, so in that regard, I do understand it. I also probably wouldn't be as annoyed by the character if it was being played by anyone other than Ransone.

            Another great episode. Best show out right now in my opinion.

              I was going to post that exact same thing.

              Ziggy is great in this show.

                  Sadly, I think this little series will go the way of the Wire. Excellent, but unobserved by the masses. Really is a shame. On the good side, knowing it's a mini series releases me from the anxiety of wondering about a second season due to viewership concerns.

                    I just want to own it on DVD. I'm still in awe at how good the first 3 episodes were.

                        Lol. That Sgt. Major is a funny lil dude. "your moostache is in violations."

                        Found this video of the real Godfather. Lt. Col. Stephen Ferrando. The actor playing him does him justice I think.

                            3rd episode was great. As an opponent of the war from the beginning, it's rough seeing what kinds of things these poor guys had to deal with due to poor planning, lack of supplies, or just a generally ****ty situation (not knowing who is hostile, having superiors give unlawful or otherwise sketchy orders, etc.). I've heard enough first-hand accounts to be aware of it, but seeing it playing out in such dramatic fashion really makes it hit home (even though it's just a TV show). And yeah, James Ransone is doing a great job -- his character is getting less annoying each episode and I'm really starting to empathize with him more.

                              Show gets better and better. Only 3 episodes left.


                              I heard the song at the end and was wondering where I'd heard it from. Went to youtube and found out a lot of people did the same lol. I even forgot I had the movie Loser in my dvd collection. Gonna go watch that now.
