I'm getting Season 4 as a belated b-day present. Psyched.

that teaser fucking stings because it feels like it's talking about actual local headlines as much as the show. i think the current murder rate is putting anything ever depicted in The Wire to shame.

I just finished season 3, and I figured I'd just wait for the DVDs. Also my wife wants to catch up, and she just finished season 1.

Hurting 2, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:41 (sixteen years ago) link

o u poor bastards (but on the other hand u have so much enjoyment to look forward to)

jhøshea, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:42 (sixteen years ago) link

and uh learn torrents ffs

jhøshea, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:42 (sixteen years ago) link

Nothing has outdone S1 for me so far, but I think that's partly just that you can't recapture that first thrill of "OMG I have never seen any show like this." Still, S3 was at times as good as S1. S2 was a slight letdown but still miles better than anything else.

My wife is actually almost done reading The Corner, which from what she's told me is considerably grimmer and grittier than The Wire.

Hurting 2, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:45 (sixteen years ago) link

they just took hbo offa my stolen cable so now im totes torrent dependent

jhøshea, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:45 (sixteen years ago) link

season 4 was the best imo - but i kinda just love them all in their own way

the corner mini series is wicked sweet too - and yeah way more gritty/realistic

Picking a favorite season is like picking your favourite childe. Except season 1 is the adopted one.

Anyone who doesn't think S1 is the best is nutty.

milo z, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:50 (sixteen years ago) link

I love the way in S1 every scene was "NEW INFORMATION! NEW INFORMATION! DID YOU HEAR WHAT HE SAID? DID YOU SEE THAT? DID YOU CATCH THAT?"

yah i was happy to have dude fade away like ok i get it already right xp

jhøshea, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:51 (sixteen years ago) link

s4 is the best cause the scope is the widest and the kids break a heart. s1 is so awes but basically just a cop show (plus there's some def growing pains there)

jhøshea, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:53 (sixteen years ago) link

The sole factor in determining the quality of art is how many LOLs it has.

Leee, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:53 (sixteen years ago) link

I've missed this so much.

forksclovetofu, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:01 (sixteen years ago) link

S3 was the conclusion to S1 tho, S3 > S1!

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:10 (sixteen years ago) link

guys this is seriously like the 80th time a debate about which season is best/worst has sprung up JUST ON THIS THREAD. start a poll or stfu already.

Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:15 (sixteen years ago) link

and like anyone gives a fuck what your personal preference is as to best season

cutty, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:16 (sixteen years ago) link

and in any case, it's clearly the fourth.

forksclovetofu, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:18 (sixteen years ago) link

jeff, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:19 (sixteen years ago) link

jhøshea, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

places where the word "vagina" doesn't magically become funnier and funnier every time you say it: Knocked Up, ILE

Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 9 November 2007 20:36 (sixteen years ago) link

yeah well you probably have a slightly different perspective since you like have one and it is full up w/sand

Fuck. I've had season 4 saved for weeks. Was burning it for a friend and accidentally deleted episodes 11-13. Started retorrenting them this morning. Was 75% finished, and then Demonoid went down. Not a good day. None of the other torrents I can find seem active. Don't suppose anyone could hook me up with a sendspace link or something? Webmail if you can help.

caek, Friday, 9 November 2007 21:11 (sixteen years ago) link

Failing that, does anyone have a Youtube link to that scence in season 1 where they just say "shit" for like three minutes.

caek, Friday, 9 November 2007 21:12 (sixteen years ago) link

haha someone just sent that to me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQbsnSVM1zM
