    Elba as "Driis" always makes me laugh for some reason.

    As if I wasn't convinced before, I would definitely make love to that man.

    Another subtle thing I love: did you guys realize that before he became a semi-regular character in Season 4, Kenard is one of the little kids playing Omar that Bunk saw in Season 3? Blew my mind when I rewatched the series.
    Another favourite of mine (season 5 spoilers):

    Well, there are a few ways you could read that.

    i always read it the second way (i think i may have been helped along by a david simon interview i read once upon a time), and wondered if chris was really homosexual himself.

    If there was, she never showed it.

    She was all business, whether buying a nailgun, or...

    That's a great scene, and in her own way, Snoop was one of the best characters on the show.

    Hey, who did that Wire countdown of top 50 characters? May have to bump that for a bit of the old retrospective.

    Not so sure on your last point. I suppose if it is the case then he must hide it from his colleagues because I believe they refer to Omar as a "faggot" numerous times.

    Any excuse is a good one. Mara and Thirdmango don't read for your own sake.

    That quote is from Season 5...
    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    I assumed it was a reference to iCarly, anyway.

    Late to the show per usual, but I just finished season one the other day. Fuck me for neglecting this series for so long. Just based on the one season, I can say this is one of the best shows I've seen.

    Ahah! I told you to watch this show two years ago. I hope now you've finally learned your lesson.

    It's the only way we can relive the fresh beauty of watching it for the first time.

    Have I mentioned recently that I hated being a high school teacher?

    I HATED BEING A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER.
    I actually subbed at a school a lot like the one in the 4th season. However, there were only ~200 students, 5 armed guards, and no student was allowed any where in the building without adult supervision. It was basically prison. And, the funny thing, the students were probably the most respectable and easy to deal with. They weren't kids - they had seen more life than I ever will.

    I do remember. People fight this show so hard for some reason. Now I'm trying to convince my roommate to watch Breaking Bad. He watched the first three eps a year ago and won't continue. *tears hair out*
