I'm a massive fan and very excited about the final season. I'll probably dl it tonight.
This is such a good show and the only show that I shamelessly plug to everybody I meet. You have to watch it! |

I'd say it's probably one of the best shows on TV today. It's a shame it's already started into its final season. I read the creator is in the process of developing a new show based on the lives of jazz musicians in post-Katrina New Orleans... doesn't really sound as interesting as the wild world of Baltimore tho.
I'll probably wait for a few weeks before I watch any new episodes, I enjoy being able to watch a bunch together. There are so many characters, plot points, etc... it's too easy to forget *beep* between episodes if you wait a week to watch the next one. |

I'm sure we'll see Omar in further episodes. I get the feeling that Simon was sick of the gushing about O. Little and left him out of the first one just to cleanse the palate. I hope that he can flesh out the news crew a little more, given that he only has 9 more episodes to make his point, while at the same time dealing with the Major Crime Unit, Carcetti, etc. I just hope that he doesn't focus on Jimmy "Byronic Hero" McNulty in overplus, because that's been done, and ye can't do no more. |

I want to see more of Marlo, Chris, Snoop and Michael in his street incarnation. I liked the first season most of all and I'd love to see more emphasis on the street. |

Ditto, except for Marlo. I can't stand him. He's a one trick pony, *staring coldly, like Makavelli*
Why doesn't somebody just shoot the guy? His strength comes from his firepower, but without a head, his crew would disperse. He must have a s***load of soldiers to be worth Prop Joe's time and H.
I really want to see more of the Dukie/Michael dynamic. I have a feeling Michael's going to pop him. |

This is great! I thought season 4 was the final one because of the way they did the final episode.
I saw Omar on CSI LV 5 the other day. He wasn't gay. |

I absolutely love The Wire. Unfortunately, I need to watch Season 4 first. |

pop him? naw. I have a feeling dukie is going to become a junkie or do something a bit crazy. Michael would only get rid of Dukie if he put Michael and/or Michael's brother at risk.

Eh rumor is he goes a bit crazy and does something even extreme by his standards. So yeah, his role will be bigger this season than the last one. |
