The Wire

[Penny Lane]

Why does the best show in the history of television (other than Seinfeld) not have its own thread?

Anyway, lookie! A bracket for the best Wire character:

But yeah that thread went stale.  Bill Simmons annoys me and I refuse to support Grant land......but I'll go take a peak.

And I voted for Method Man

Bubbles and Kima are 7 seeds?? WTF, I already reject that ridiculous sham of a gimmick. Did they not see Kima's sweet, sweet boob squeeze in Season 2?

Oh, and

After taking my current job I was given the entire series as a form of training. I breezed through Season 1, and now Season 2 is just a total sludgefest and I'm trudging through it best I can.

Season 2 was definitely a shock to see the show change so much, but it's a pretty solid season in the grand scheme of things. That being said I think you'll like season 3 and 4 much more.  Season 3 was more of a return to season 1. You'll appreciate the thing as a whole once you get through it all.

white people probs: choosing a favorite Wire character

1. Omar
2. Bunk Moreland
3. Stringer Bell
4. Clay Davis

I think Season 2's downfall is the writing. It shouldn't take 5 or 6 episodes to "get the gang back together". It's like Season 5 of Sopranos with the Vito/Coma Storyline. You are only telling one half of a story really - and that is of Ziggy and his issues.

So far, here's who I like (In no particular order and I'm not good with names):

1) Lester
2) Stringer
3) What's his face who's not Poot or D'Angelo who plays pool with Herc and whats his face
4) The main guy down at the docks.

Omar shows more character depth/more sides to his personality...therefore he wins..
