Mr. B

Ok. Serious talk you need to know this. You might fit the profile of someone transporting drugs and get stopped. Real talk!

Mr. B

No. The money doesn’t have to be connected to Damon. These people are all separately crooked.

Mr. B

You know why Stringer didn’t go thru D. For 1, he don’t have to go thru D. D is just one step up from the workers. 2. He already knew D wouldn’t do it.

Mr. B

How do y’all be missing the story right before your eyes? lol! Dude the just said “This is SENATOR DAVIS” and the first that y’all say is “Maybe he’s working with the other guy!” lol! When the police start looking at campaign finance records, it obviously rattles politicians because guess what, they have campaigns. It kinda hurts your understanding of what’s happening when you don’t know how politics or the government works. The lady with the red hair is THE State Attorney. The only person about her in the state in the State Attorney General (if they have one). When the guy was worried about the $4500 checks, it wasn’t because he was getting red hair in trouble, it was because he knew that she had the authority to investigate any wrongdoing in the state. The issue is SHE didn’t know it was happening and to be honest, she didn’t need to know because those records are public. She would have been needed to authorize a subpoena (maybe) but public records are there for the taking. Back to Senator Davis: Rawls is more worried about protecting Davis because Davis is his buddy and as a politician, he can make life easier for Rawls who might also have political ambitions. Why does Davis care? Because he has to be elected to stay in office. Even if there’s nothing, news that there’s an investigation into him about illegal activity could tank reelection chances. lol. I hope I can keep watching with y’all without getting pissed off. lol. Hold on to The Wire and come back and watch it after you’ve had a lot more life experience and it’ll be even more enjoyable. Some of the things don’t make sense to you because you haven’t experienced the underbelly of this crazy mess we live in.. You’ll get there tho!

Mr. B

I’m so proud of y’all! You have accurately identified the problem with Avon a Stringer. Avon is about street business. Stringer don’t care about the street as much as stacking paper and building wealth for the future. That’s the whole conflict. If you watch the series again, you’ll see a lot of subtle things you missed the first time.

Season 2 is annoying cause it switches to the docks & the Eastern Europeans. It’s slow to me. But Seasons 3 & 4 are iconic. You have to get thru season 2 though. I say binge watch it but don’t recap.

Nikki

Poor Amanda, she got a good heart & can’t take the madness. People who watched this show years ago still devastated by Wallace murder. I feel her.

Poot (Wallace's best friend) was putting Wallace out of his misery by telling Bodie to "do it gotdammit if you're gonna do it." He didn't like seeing Wallace crying and pissing in his pants while Bodie belittled him. If they were going to kill him, he just wanted to do it and not prolong or humiliate him. That's partially why he shot Wallace in the head when he was bleeding out still alive, to go ahead and end his suffering. I think the other reason Poot also shot Wallace was to share the weight of killing Wallace with Bodie. He wasn't going to let Bodie carry that shit alone.

It’s good just different than what everyone was used too with the first season. But it’s the most important season. Once you realize the main character in this show is Baltimore and not any character you appreciate the show even more.

Kangdarius

Lol if that were true I wouldn’t skip it so much. Anything about the ports is traaaaaash

Jae Amanda

Len Walker

Season 2 is the most important season

Stan Ross

Lord the episode!!!

B.Laster

Great recap. Y’all really starting to figure things out. And I like the pausing to talk because you can easily miss a name drop or something important. The Wire is the best series ever because of the realism. It’s based off of true people and events, the real life Omar is actually in the show, I believe season 3 or 4. And it shows how much dirt is being done by police , city officials and higher ups, not just the street dudes. You have to go to season 2 and beyond. Season 2 is different but it all ties in together. I’m riding this with y’all like it’s my 1st time watching

Taurean Reign

I agree wholeheartedly. Season 4 is iconic

Taurean Reign

When J said he need a new earring, I laughed way harder than I needed to because that was so petty lol

Jaybeast5x

sean john going to be messing with you is wild😭😭😭

Kangdarius

I’ll peep these when y’all get to season 4. One of the greatest seasons in tv. The next season prolly gon be a struggle for y’all but the rest of it is dope.

Yo, guys you should check out one of the saddest, most disturbing movies ever made. It’s called Requiem For A Dream. Marlon Wayans is playing a 100% straight up dramatic role as a drug addict. If you wanna keep your kids away from drugs, let ‘em watch this. I felt like I had to take a shower when I got home from the theater. This wasn’t a mainstream, popcorn movie so it didn’t get a lot of promotion when it released. But nobody who’s seen this movie will ever forget it. Just ask them. The original ending had to be changed a couple of weeks after the movie came out because it was considered too sexually graphic. They wanted to give the movie an NC-17 rating because of the original ending. Keep an eye out for the actress playing the main character’s mother. She absolutely steals the movie. One of the greatest performances you will ever see on film. She broke me down to my core. My eyes were leaking. I remember trying not to blink because I didn’t want anyone to see the tears falling.
