The Wire appreciation thread seriously, has there ever been a better TV programme? Im only up to Series 4 but Im dreading the day I get to the end of Series 5
i can safely hold my hands up and say i never ever watch televison, only when to watch football, but i've got every season of this as its an unreal programme
the best thing is that it gets better with every series Whatever you do DO NOT look at Wikipedia about either the characters or the programme in general. I ruined Series 3 by looking at one of the characters wikipedia page after the 5th or 6th episode
best tv program ive ever seen, watched all 5 series in about a month. felt like something was missing when it all ended shhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeiiit
If every drunk person was like Bunk when hes drunk, the world would be a better place The bit when hes sitting on the bog in the pink dressing gown is mdmazing "You a bad man, Jimmy"
Aye mate i'm staying well clear of any internet banter on it. I was even scared to look in this thread again in case of any spoilers. I watched Rocknrolla and The Wire Season 1 in the same month and Idris Elba became my new favourite actor of the moment. Really want to IMDB or Google him to see what he's doing TV/Film wise but i'm too scared in case any searches reveal anything about him returning as Stringer Bell. Stringer was such an immense, subtly portrayed character and he played him brilliantly. I hope he returns in a future series, but half the fun in exploring Seasons 2-5 will be finding out if he does or not.
Stringer is probably my favourite character along with Bunk and Omar. Im well jealous that you've only seen series 1 so hard to make a post without giving any of the story away
Haha, and for that very resaon i won't be wandering into this thread for a while. I'll be back after i've finished Season 5. See you in a month or so mate
Lovefilm just cant deliver them quick enough for me. Nothing worse than finishing a disc at an awesome bit and you have to wait 3 days for the next disc
