It's certainly interesting isn't it? Dude must be swimming in money but look at his life.

Looks good, though. Perry Ellis or something.

My first memory of him was on Lost. Amazing in The Wire. gently caress.

Unfortunately, also posthumously in the remake of White Men Can’t Jump starring Jack Harlow. Soooo, there’s that I guess.

Yo, what the gently caress

The first one, he’s in it for like a minute as a preacher.

I loved Paul Ben-Victor in True Detective. He had some great lines. I would rank S1 of True Detective up with The Wire. Never did get into the other two seasons though.

I am convinced I heard Clarke Peters doing the voiceover for (I think) a car rental business on ITV during the coverage of the Grand National on Saturday

I'm kind of conflicted on his character as well. In a world where anyone can get got at any moment, he can kind of just walk Baltimore unchallenged and everyone's like "woah Brother Mouzone, no loving way" like he's the ultimate badass or something. On the other hand, I can sort of buy a bunch of gangsters believing in some quasi superstitious belief that this one guy IS actually the ultimate bad rear end. Also, the dialogue is so loving good ("even if I miss I can't miss ") I'm willing to look the other way.

But the showrunners also had to tone DOWN Omar's escape because the audience wouldn't have believed it otherwise so :shrug:

James Ransone is so good in Generation Kill. Underrated series imo.

Thanks to the Wire, I'm always questioning the usage of "evacuate." In reading a rock climbing article... "He was then evacuated to the trailhead and hospital." Probably would have said something similar but I don't know if the Sun Journal would approve.

I just saw Chris Bauer/Frank Sobotka in a clip of For All Mankind on YouTube. Is that show worth watching? It looks extremely silly but it has like four seasons? Is it supposed to be campy?

Awww yes, I love this, can't wait to see how you react to how things shake out.

And yeah, I absolutely love the SWAT guy just going blank and having no idea what to do when the loving door just opens and all his training goes out the window, and the detective has to motion at them to get the gently caress in there

Does anybody have a link to this? I've been looking for this clip forever.

God I forgot all this happens in S4. Everything Bubbles after Sherrod is absolutely devastating.

He's based off a real dude and, according to the writers, they had to tone him DOWN for the show to add more believability to the character. The spiderman jump in particular was supposedly from an even higher up balcony.

Agree that the McNulty FBI profile is amazing. Probably the funniest loving scene in the whole seires

Based off Donnie Andrews, the guy that raids the apartment with Omar and gets capped before Omar jumps out the window.

For some reason I really like the guy that busts Orlando.

"City jail, muthafucka" :smuggo:

I've also never seen We Own This City. I'd watch along.
