It's been almost a year since I've last seen an episode so this will be fun.

HoneyBoy posted:Something I just picked up on in the very first episode: when McNulty is talking with Phelan he first refers to D'Angelo as Avon's cousin. This is never brought up again after this scene. I'm pretty sure the cousin angle gets brought up quite a bit... maybe I'm remembering things wrong. Flashbacks weren't even supposed to happen, HBO insisted they were included for that first episode.

Rewatching the first two episodes is making me realize it's really hard to see any of these actors in other roles without thinking of the wire. Also, Herc is seen with the tennis ball in episode one.

Rewatching the show without having to focus so hard is allowing me to try to pick up on the finer details. Never noticed this sign before, which pretty much sums up the series in general.  Also I wonder if the actors when reading the first season knew that they were going to be part of something truly special- even when they got passed on during award season.

chesh posted:I really can not class The Wire with anything else. Yes, it is a TV show in that it aired on the television. But I can not compare it to any other television, because it is so distinctly, so completely, different. It literally (IMHO) transcends its medium. It is a visual novel. It really is. Unlike most shows where it can be identified by certain "episodes", the Wire gets differentiated by it's "seasons". There's never really been a discussion on which is the best "episode" of the Wire, and there shouldn't be.

EvanSchenck posted:Prez's shooting incident in the towers is bananas, by the way. He, Herc, and Carver are being pelted by brickbats and such, and there are even a few shots fired, and then Prez returns fire with his Glock but... he can't see poo poo. He doesn't know where the fire is coming from, because he's buzzed and it's the middle of the night, so basically he's firing random shots at an apartment building. Provided he didn't hit anybody, he can clear it in the report by claiming that he was firing at visible targets, but realistically it was appallingly irresponsible and another indication that he's totally unsuitable for street work. He's also the only character to kill a cop

Just finished the last two episodes of season one. I gotta say, that scene with Dee at the station is still one of my favorites of the series.

escape artist posted:The "Where's Wallace?" scene? That's good too, but I really like when Bunk is showing him all the pictures of everyone murdered throughout the season. I could be wrong but I think it's the longest scene in the entire series.
