Facts. Makes you think about how many Randys, Michael’s and Dukie’s there really are out there thankfully, my mom was like a mix of Delanda and Miss Anna except for the fact that my mom told me to step up and be the man it wasn’t about elevating in the drug game. It was about being responsible and having a job I watch the wire late teens early 20s seeing this as a grown man with a child it’s totally different.

Still, my most favorite show ever. I think this show is so realistic. It’s almost like watching a fucking documentary yo.

The actor that played Randy is mature well beyond his years. His speech, vocabulary, mannerism.....

Damn I miss this show. 20 years later and I still go back and watch every season. Season 4 my favorite.

When Prez ”packed too much” lunch and gives a sandwich to Dookie that hits me right in the feels every time, I can see how people wanna become teachers regardless of pay or how hard it is. If you could help out a kid like that, even just once, you’ve done a damn fine deed.

@@ComputerJunkie00 tru but they all could have been saved if they themselves just made different choices. for example mike had adults who would have token care of his situation other than depending on criminals, if he did let cutty help him mike would have made it out the hood through boxing. randy lost out being to naive trusted the word of cop and principal who didnt give af about him in the end result. Dukie as much as his shit life wasnt his fault where his fault lies is not being truthful with prezbo not wanting help, by the time he met with prezbo he was already too far gone. heroin is a serious addiction to break and starting out as a kid makes it even worst, can he be saved sure by his own determination to get clean but unlike bubbles where he broke the addiction due to his sisters help and other factors of him seeking help, i dont think dukie can accomplish that but its not impossible but his path to recovery is a tough one. mike future is gonna end unfortunatley just like omar killed or in and out of prison, and randy will eventually learn of his relation to the drug game and rely on that to survive as prop joe namesake carries weight but he too will become a victim to the streets of baltimore. But namond is the one who surprisingly let down his wall and seeked help and accepted the help however it came. the desperation in his scene with cutty that he has lost his friends and doesnt wanna be in the drug game, is what prompted cutty to reach out to colvin, who in turn asked wee-bay to let him adopt namond. there is a saying closed mouths dont get no food, meaning if you doint say that your are in need or call out to help normally people will assume you are fine, being upfront and truthful about their situation could have saved all four respectively by seperate adults but in the end they made their choice to go another direction.

Dookie ending up a heroin addict like myself at the time just made me relate to even more. NOw it just makes me sad. I was able to quit but I will never know if dookie quit, died, or went to prison.

Best HBO series ever. Better than Sopranos!

It's far better than the Sopranos. Sopranos was a great show, but it had some serious writing flaws. Unfinished story lines, characters brought in just to be killed, or brought in and then they didn't seem to know what to do with them (The Steve Buscemi character for example). It's character drama was fantastic. Especially Tony. But it just wasn't as complete as the Wire. Wire had all the great believable character drama, but with iron clad plot lines. The only show that even comes close to the wire for putting all elements together is Game of Thrones. For me the only thing that puts the Wire ahead of GoT is the fact it's based on real situations. It is a mirror of the flaws of America.

These storylines are brilliant... Never thought of school like that ref: what Seth said. I loved the drama classes for the creative freedom and languages as it opens so many more opportunities to connect with people around the world. I don’t think we ever grow out of our true passions.

As an immigrant to Latinos our immediate neighborhood did bond more, many of my black friends had it real bad. Mom had those brothas loving rice and beans, eggs and bananas. lol!
