i was doing some filing work in a hospital in west baltimore recently, kept myself entertained one night by seeing how many surnames of characters from the wire i could find in the patient files (iirc i got at least five: stanfield, barksdale, daniels, sydnor, little).

I started watching iCarly with my niece, but now I actively enjoy when she nowhere around. Good, funny show with lots of references like The Wire one.

antexit wrote this on thread "The Wire" on HBO on board I Love Everything on Jul 22, 2008
Richard Price cribbed a good amount of dialogue for the Wire from Clockers, mostly stuff that didn't get used in the film, like "big paws on a puppy."
Just started reading this. Also:
Season 3 exchange w/Herc and Justin about where to buy sideways hats
and the classic Carver/Herc/Dozerman meet Bodie/Poot coming out of the movie theater

this (cancelled) canadian show 'intelligence' is pretty hot shit—wire fans might find it interesting/entertaining.
it builds up steam pretty slowly like the wire, and doesn't have all that much love to it, certainly not the sense of humor, nor the sense of locality (i kind of recognize vancouver in it occasionally, but it seems to leave out a lot of the city), but it's pretty non-stop by the end of the first season. (i mean, it it is all the way up to then too, but by the end every 20-second scene seems like it might be the one where the whole thing falls apart.)

this show is def great, got hooked on it and now sort of dreading getting to the end of season 2

This is probably more for the Treme thread but I'm way behind on that show so I stay away from the thread for fear of spoilers. This pic is from Coco Robicheaux's memorial second line a month ago.

i kinda want to rewatch this but i'm kinda scared to? like it might not be as good as i remember. Dating a girl who hasn't seen it and she's kinda like "is it uncool to watch the wire now" and i kinda think it might be?
― Pup Shalom Dog Costume (forksclovetofu), Friday, 9 March 2012 04:02 (twelve years ago) link
it's as good. mad at you and the girl you're dating fyi.
― horseshoe, Friday, 9 March 2012 04:02 (twelve years ago) link
it's been like six years since i watched it! tastes change.i own the box set so go pop yer shots elsewhere.
― Pup Shalom Dog Costume (forksclovetofu), Friday, 9 March 2012 04:05 (twelve years ago) link
anyways i think i'm echoing thomp's point that it feels like talking about how good the wire is is like big upping the joys of bacon om nom nom
― Pup Shalom Dog Costume (forksclovetofu), Friday, 9 March 2012 04:06 (twelve years ago) link
forks stfu, your girl is tripping and who gives a fuck if a bajillion people TALK about how good the Wire is. It IS good and don't make me kick your ass.

listen, i'm just saying, rewatching the wire is one of life's pleasures. just do it. or don't, but who cares if people are 2000andlate about the wire. i also like bacon.
