Wire Actors in other things

mcnutty

McNutty did the VO for a nice glossy documentary on street sports shown on Channel 4 on Monday ("Concrete Circus"). Was wracking my brains for the whole programme trying to work out where I knew the voice from!

What's the tally on The Good Wife appearances? Off the top of my head:
Kima
Burrell
Partlow
Boadie
Cutty

West End McNulty:

wow just saw the trailer for the fred west thing

Watching series three of Oz at the moment. Lance Reddick's fake Jamaican accent is ridiculous. I'm amazed he wasn't shanked for being an undercover narc within twenty minutes.

Just saw Nicky Sobotka on The Good Wife.

xp - there's a scene in the Wire where Omar and his bf are watching Oz; forget the season/episode, pretty sure it was a Beecher/Keller scene.

nicky sobotka was on weeds too just recently

Bubs as Rainn Wilson's pal and fellow short order cook in Super.

... and now Carver in the season finale of The Good Wife. You'd think that show would be set in Baltimore instead of Chicago.

Anyone watch the Dominic/Fred West thing then? Not sure what i though of it tbh

It made me laugh.

yeah, that's what was weird about it

I thought it was v good. Woman playing Rose was awesome.

McNutty was fun in the very gory yet entertaining "Centurion"

Probably already mentioned, but I noticed in the four minutes of that awful Jonah Hex movie that I could tolerate, that Lance Reddick is in it and appears to play some sort of Q-type character.

McNulty as Fred West

He was good, the programme started off OK and got gradually more terrible

My wife bought me the Blu-Ray Star Wars set and so I got to see the deleted scene where McNulty gets a line of dialog!

dominic west was _really_ good as iago! he does a credible sheffield accent (lol eton) and when he is lying (which happens a lot in othello) he breaks out his weird lying face (perfected in season 5)

this face

this one's a bit of a wire where's waldo.

dominic west was _really_ good as iago! he does a credible sheffield accent (lol eton)

He was actually born there but, yeah, I imagine any Sheffield accent would not have survived Eton

And then he went to Trinity. Poor accent never had a chance.

i think that's part of why he was cast. pretty sure he's done the crucible before. he was the only one doing a non-RSC accent except peters, who was doing the same accent as morgan freeman in robin hood prince of thieves

saw bodie in a UPS commercial a week or two ago

too bad he doesn't do that teeth-spit thing on the guy at the end

randy on that suburgatory show tonight

Idris Elba is in the new Ghost Rider movie!

Lester Freamon/Clarke Peters is the guy singing the deep-voiced backing vocals "got to keep on dancing', keep on dancing'"

putting my bet on shia getting the other role, unless he prices himself out

Wire/Breaking Bad crossover in short-lived 2007 series The Black Donnellys

just noticed this one

Jermaine Crawford (Duquan) is in Damsels in Distress!

Lt. Daniels had a nice role in an episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia playing a pimp in flashbacks to Danny Devito's past

Wendell Pierce: best known for his role in Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part II

omar was on law & order this week
This past week I watched like 8 various Law & Orders at various times and ALL of them had Wire actors in them somewhere. Nick Sobotka as a failed actor. Burrell as an upstate cop, sorta improbably letting Benson's brother off the hook for shooting a hostage. Carver as Goren's temporary replacement. Rawls as a convict/informant. Method Man terrorizing Nigerians. Judge Phelan as a New York judge. Omar as that hitman. It might have been more than 8, even.

both carver and bunk play nigerians in the same l & o episode

wendell pierce as… the announcer for the jazz at lincoln center radio show.

CREE LED lightbulb spokesman, Lance Reddick

^^^ I saw that and became sad.
