it's a Bodie episode
It's a Bodie episode
i think this was the first kind of show where I fucking hated a character so much for most of the series and ended up being so upset by the time he was gone. obviously that happened a lot in television around the same time and after though
There were Bodie episodes?
I kept thinking any time Bodie was on screen "What a nigger!" by the end I was like "He was a real nigga" even if he wasn't the top nigga
be marathoning the wire one day
one day neighbor decides to mow lawn all day
put on subtitles because I can't hear shiiieeeeet
realize all this time they were calling this nigger poot or poo
not poop
not even the shit but a fart
anyways turns out neighbor had a stroke or heart attack or some shit on his lawn and his weedwhacker only stopped when it ran outta gas
next seaon they introduce a character named DOOKIE
bravo hbo
Holy shit it's kenny from Oz
Poot's real name was Marcel or some shit.
Dookie was Duquan.
he played some random kid in the first season involved with Chris' crew that accidentally shot the truck driver they were robbing too
i think watching oz first made me think he seemed like a nice kid
i like that he seemed to actually like Carver and McNulty by the end. They had mutual respect for each other. Bodie was old school where he could respect certain cops
Why? Just because he was Adebisi's fleshlight? Kenny was a little shit.
yeah i meant bodie seemed tame in comparison
The pool scene with Herc was kino
Pool scene? I don't remember that. I thought they just ran into each other at the movie theater, not the pool
Billiards
zesty lil playa got his bucci reshaped in Oz IIRC
wish i could find the scene. i honestly don't remember what happens in it
It's weird seeing The Wire actors in so many random things:
Bodie being acting as an unhinged version of himself in Oz
Carver going insane and becoming some fake warlord from a made up nation
Daniels getting addicted to tits
Fucking Busmalis being the fbi rat
Herc being Kingpin's abusive father
Kima fucking Shaft
Marlo as the milquetoast vietnam vet who dies in Quarry
McNulty as a Naboo palace guard out of all things
The black mayor playing a sheriff in The Autopsy
Gillen playing a gazillion silly roles with weird accents
My headcanon is Bodie being the stubborn fuck he was survives the gunshot to the head but the gun and all the drugs on him gets him a lengthy sentence but they can't send him to the same prison Chris and Weebay are at so they transfer him to oz with a fake identity or he thinks he's someone else due to the head injury.
The acting in Season 1/2 of the main cast will never be forgotten, i dont think any episode is about any character specifically, some are always in more focus than others in the first couple of seasons but its fleshed out so well.
Fuck, I forgot about Clay Davis as the repairman in 1408 and Idris Elba in Suicide Squad.
This
i like the episodes where Prez protects his kids from his old crew. they were his students at that point and didn't want them involved with the law
Wallace was a snitch and he deserved to get got. You shouldn't have hated Bodie at the start either, he was smart and it made sense to not warm up to D.
he smacked his lips in oz
i didn't even like wallace, mostly because the actor was terrible but bodie was still an asshole back then. that's the point. he was an over the top hardass that got smarter as he went. ultimately it did him in
*skip*
The wire reminds me of those times when I was dragged to the salvation army in 01-02 with my mom and the counter had a cop show playing on their staticy 12 in TV
God take me back I miss that smell of old dusty furniture and clothes
i like it when the cops bond with the hoppers :)
I don't like the orange ones
wtf was his problem?
MFW after watching The Wire 5 times I learn Wallace is that martials arts negro actor. Mind blown.
whole episode is just poles who think they're italian
Poland does larp as Italy pretty hard, desu. Some people even call Krakow "the second Vatican", kek.
They even mention Italy in their anthem:
March! March, Dombrowski!
March from Italy to Poland!
Under your command
We shall reach our land. 𝄇
body got got because he didnt do the smart thing and step down
that's the point. he was an over the top hardass that got smarter as he went.
ultimately it did him in
Not very smart then
Feel so bad for bricks, sided with the wrong nigga unfortunately
Marlo also plays a slick fancy suit LA detective in Bosch. Great role
I literally fast forwarded through every scene with Bubbles and his faggot junkie friend, they were the most useless characters on the show and never advanced the plot.
You green and he was trying to make you brown.. ehehehehehhhehhhhh-ehh-ehh
Some niggas really do go through a metamorphosis
Wasn't it talking to mcnutty that did him in.
That white guy had to be nuts being the one white junky
Wasn't it talking to mcnutty that did him in.
fuck did i do?
I literally fast forwarded through every scene with Bubbles and his faggot junkie friend
Me too
Watch more HBO TV series and movies and you'll see them recycle tons of actors from their older stuff. The fat guy who marries Johnny Sack's daughter in The Sopranos plays a dumb deputy in Boardwalk Empire.
Idris Elba also had a role in the HBO film Sometimes in April. Depressing as fuck and much better than Hotel Rwanda.
Stinkum?
