"You got to man, this America"

about there

when frank "3 inches of blue steel" sobotka is introduced. only redditors don't like s2 of the wire.

I remember dropping it after 2 episodes the first time watching. Then I came back to it a couple years later and it was kino. I think I was ready to accept the boring/cringe parts and wait for the kino everyone was talking about, and it quickly delivered. Then, upon rewatches, those first 2 episodes are some of the best. So you have to convert into someone who likes this show before you can fully appreciate it.

1>3>2>4>>>>>>>5

>>221021563
right around the first episode. gets great around the second season.
>>
>>221021563
Episode 10 is when it clicks. Then season 2 sort of throws you off for a bit.
However on rewatch you'll love it from the beginning and pick up things you missed the first time.
>>
>>221021563
I simulatenously bingewatched the first and third seasons in the span of a week. Then I watched season 2 in the next three days. Then season 4 premiered on HBO. I've never binged a show like the before, I'm sorry it's not working for you.

For me it's this scene. It really shows how D is a complete oblivious outsider. When he naively admits to being approached by Orlando for a covert side deal, all the other dudes look at each other like "can you believe this retard?". D doesn't even realize the other dudes don't see him as one of them and keeps talking.
>>
>>221022169
D is a nepo hire and I don't believe for a second that he should have been anywhere near the bag. Avon should've put him in charge of a legit front somewhere where he can't fuck up. He was never cut out for gangster shit
>>
>>221022250
He's a shitty gangsta but is the most committed to being one. He thinks he NEEDS to be one because that's the identity he clings to. The other dudes are way more pragmatic and opportunistic about it because they're just doing it for money. But D actually believed his life purpose was to be a shitty criminal, constantly being tricked into taking high risks for low reward. It's JUST like my easy high paying office job, which is why this scene really speaks to me.

>>221021563
Season 1 episode 1.
Though from personal experience I've seen people not get hooked until around episode 3.

Wrong, season 2>>>>>anything else

Exactly what I was going to say.
>>
>>221022510
Yawn you and that season are a bore
>>
>>221022250
he was already tainted from being a legit front from whacking that guy he was on trial for in the first episode. it's why he was demoted from the towers to the pit.

Before that, D being anywhere near the high rises was the mistake

Never, watch the Shield instead.

I can't bring myself to watch this show because all the promo pics you people post look so gay. Look at the dude on the right, he'd be bullied so bad in the 00s. And the main dude is a bald manlet with manboobs? Nah, not watching. Thanks, though.
>>
>>221022169
mmmmm boy I sure do love this hot sau-ACK
>>
>>221023016
You sound insecure, anon.

Also the guy in OP's pic looks super gay, so I don't see your point.

You can’t just hire niggers to work a copy and print shop

Oh wait

>>221021563
season 2, episode 1
it stops being good after season 2, episode 8
>>
Like the seventh episode is when thins start clicking. The start is very slow and disjointed, so much that it's actually a questionable decision.
