The Wire

[DomesticG0ddess]

My husband and I discovered this at Xmas after getting Season 1 DVD from his elderly uncle (how cool is said elderly uncle) and we are completely addicted. We're on Season 4 now - anyone else addicted too?

oooh
list of characters i would!
1: stringer bell
2: mcnulty(with an english accent)
3: sydnor
4:franks nephew
5:boris
6: bubbs!

Men I would:
1 Omar Little
2 Cutty Dennis Wise
3 Chris Partlow
4 Bodie
5 Renaldo
6 Lester Freamon
7 Mc Nulty

Brilliant television!

i didnt like marlo or avon!

right start another list !!!

I'm just a humble motherfucker with a big-ass dick. who said that?

the fuck crime scene takes some beating!

It was the Bunk, no?

I'd love to do the most moving scenes, but there are spoilers, and not all posters have finished the whole series...

Thinking about that, also my "funniest" scenes contain spoilers!

hbo are starting a new series called treme in april that has bunk and freamon in, not the characters the actors x

it was bunk yes!! i could sit here all night and waffle on about the wire!

Oh yes. I wonder if it'll ever make it to Italy.

me too mehdismummy

i hired them all from the libray! can u imagine the wire in italian!!!

I would (in no particular order):

-Jimmy
-Carver
-Reinaldo
-Marlo (I know I know, purely based on looks!)

• Lester, but only if he spends a looooong time talking to me with his glasses down his nose as a form of foreplay
• Carcetti

-Cutty (of course!)

Favourite scenes till the end of season 4:
-The crime scene in season 1 (fuck!)
-The Bunk and Lester having a beer and declining "puss-i".... which ends with the Bunk calling out to "Jimmmmmyyyyyyyy", something I often do too when dd2 drives me insane, and has my dds (4 and 2 ) in stitches

• The Bunk and Omar talking sometimes in season 3 I believe
• the end of the penultimate episode of season 2, featuring Frank Sobotka (not describing the scne as it's a spoiler)
• Any wake with the Pogues' song full blast
• McNulty and the Bunk drinking by the traintracks

-Bubbles walking through Hamsterdam

• D'Angelo explaining chess to Bodie ("what about them bald-headed bitches" "those are the pawns... they like soldiers".... "the king stay the king")

I can highly recommend the Wire cd (and all the pieces matter). I have it on my ipod and love to blast the damn thing up really loud when having a shitty day

funny you in italy! my ds fav prog is from italy. gormiti!

the wire cd whats on that then?

Ah but the repartee to that- wasn't it something like "you wish, motherfucker"? or something like that?

"see that bow-legged motherfucker? I made him walk that way"

Oh and sorry, speaking of the Bunk- his adultery scene???? priceless (if somewhat far fetched)

i am now sad i have watched them all and wish i could watch them all with virgin eyes!

I don't even want to begin to think of The Wire in Italian. I hate how the Italians dub everything and I swear any foreign language program/movie seems worse than it is when dubbed into Italian

at your dc into gormiti... thankfully ds has stopped asking for them!

but in italy you can get hats and tshirts etc with gormiti on! my ds would pass out with joy if they were sold here! i tried on the italian ebay but didnt understand any of it!!

Some of my fav scenes

• yes, the end of the penultimate episode of season 2, featuring Frank Sobotka, pure poetry.

• D'Angelo versus stringer bell, end of season 1

• Herc, Carv bump into Poot and Bodie at the movies

• Bubbles walking in Hamsterdam

• "the boys of summer" fighting the terrace boys.

Oh yes, I suppose we can... there are even shoes

Ah and forgot Omar in the blue pj going out for cheerios

shoes omg shoes?
