On brooklyn finest, he did plot on Tango before he knew he was a cop. He begged for his life when his boss (played by Michael K Williams) executed the hit on the overall boss so he could take the helm.

Like two close cousins sharing life stories. A beautiful moment.

Brother Hassan Johnson needs to get more roles! I love him and Meth's energy that they bring to their craft.

Method Man has the Midas touch: Everything he does is gold. This was such an insightful, fun interview with Hassan Johnson. Though there were many "soldiers" in the show (e.g. Snoop, Bodie, Chris)...Wee-Bey being old enough to be father AND choosing to be a good father even while jailed made him the character we love so much.

Robert Chew is/was My cousin in real life, it's great to see him immortalized in the wire.

Watch The Corner.. it came out before the wire and is about the addicts in Baltimore. Dope show but only like 6 episodes

I used to go back and forth over what the best show ever on TV was. I had it down to the Sopranos and The Wire. After many times re-watching both it has become clear, I enjoy The Wire a good deal more. I watch it ever couple of years and every time I watch it I pick on some things I missed. This podcast is making me want to watch it again even though I just watched it last month.

What a great conversation. I have watched the show many, many times, but Method Man and Hassan brought up many different things about these characters that I never thought about. Well done.

I wish the meeting between Method Man and Tom McCarthy had been filmed, it sounded like it was hilarious. Spotlight is fantastic and it really popped me when I realised it was that POS Templeton who directed and co-wrote it I'd love to know if what happened with D'Angelo played on Wee Bay's mind when it came to Namond. The last conversation with Brianna and D'Angelo had a tale where she let him get beaten to toughen him up, and for me that really echoes in Namond's story. You could try to make him fit the streets, but it seemed unlikely it would go any better for him than D'Angelo.

Wee Bay character is a monster in Season 1. He kills people, he doesn't care about the girl over-dosing etc... He is indeed loyal to the crew. Then he changes over the season. Maybe more accurately we see another side of the character. The scene with Colvin is one of my preferred. He knows his son is not for this life and he loves him (and want to give him a chance)

Season 4 was the best just cause they brought old characters in a new light with wee bey and prezbo

I think the guy who played Lt. Daniels and the guy who played Bunny Colvin did the best in covering up their native accents, because they're both from the Caribbean.
