Stringer telling McNulty "nicely done" is a call back to the first episode when McNulty says it to Stringer after they'd intimated the witness to change her story in Dee's trial

Stringer looking at the camera at the end always seem to me like a big middle finger to everyone who thought he was gonna get arrested or killed lmaooo

Bra, Hahaha The Wire is different

They lost the ability to arrest stringer for Brandon when Wallace died. Wallace’s testimony was all they had on stringer

Nobody is coming for McNulty's Family 😃 I think these are movie tropes we are used to from Hollywood, but in reality it makes no sense for these people to come for the police, shoot back or resist arrest, you rarely hear about it in real life, because when that happens, the state will use overwhelming force to shut that down, which we have partially seen when Greggs got shot as well. It's not good business for organized crime to behave like that. Which is what I love about the show, just some level of ground reality.

This .. the amount of wild predictions by reactors to the wire, based on Hollywood cliches is funny. Eventually they get that this show is crushingly realistic and based on the grinding reality of real life

Basically. Unless you live in a third world country.

Great reaction. Can't wait for season 2 a month from now.

Can't wait until you get to season 3. That's when things get crazy and power dynamics change

They always "cut" raw drug with other product to increase the yield. This way, one kilo of pure can become 10, 15kilos of street-ready drug for sale, increasing your profits dramatically.

Dee to Avon episode 1: “I’m going make it up. Most def.” Brianna tells Avon he needs to make it up to D'Angelo. Most def

Omar is not back, just doing his thing in NYC. Kind of the way the show has of saying the "game" spreads beyond Baltimore. Also, one thing the Kima shooting shows us is why cops are more or less untouchable, it was the one time we saw the Police department actually motivated to do something remotely resembling police work. Hell, even in this episode we have Herc casually mentioning the possibility of murdering Wee Bey if he puts up the slightest bit of resistance. FInally, don't know if I mentioned this on the video that got blocked, but another important key to understanding this show is in the words of one of the creators, David Simon. He said repeatedly in interviews that "We are in a post-industrial age. We don’t need as many of us as we once did", and the show is about his conclusion about how "every single moment on the planet, from here on out, human beings are worth less".

Enjoy your reactions, Please keep going. Can't wait to season 3 everything change💣😱

After Kima got shot they really wanted to take down the Barksdale organization

Great reaction! My favorite episode of Season 1 would have to be The Cost. On my first ever watch I remember just being deep in thought about all that had transpired and how there were really no victories to be had once everything was over. The first season of The Wire is the perfect stepping stone for what the rest of the series will have in store for the continuation of the story. All in the game.

The Cost is the best episode. I'd been waiting for JD to start reacting to this show again - I got some catching up to do. :)

@@chidiumeh It's up there for sure. Personally I'd say Season 1's best episode is the finale, Sentencing. And I heard that apparently she's on Season 3 on her Patreon. I can't wait for her to start putting out the reactions more frequently.

i really hope you continue this show and finish it- s3 and 4 are the best seasons ever and a lot of the characters you might have negative feelings for- they grow on you in the later seasons

Thank you for the upload, and sticking with the show. You could easily react to superhero movies or more "popular" stuff, for less editing work and more views. I really respect that. Have a nice day

Girl where u been

Danke!

Finally, thanks you.I couldn't wait to hear your thoughts on the closing of of season 1, and I am really glad that you are continuing. IT gets only better from here, even If that means, there aren't many happy endigs waiting for you😉

Hello!

The read to much into D'Angelo interrogation room talk, only thing is important is the facts. There was no force from His Mom or Avon. He loved that money and Power especially The name recognition. So He can snitch But painting a ugly picture Is him snitching on his Family. The City will not Go out there way to protect him, he will die just like Ganz.

Um...I'm sorry but you saying there was no "force from his mother or Avon" means that you missed the entire point of D'Angelo's character and story.

D'Angelo did what he did of his own free will, we not talking Wallace! If you have no Street skin and your a citizen you would not understand. But he didn't get dropped from out of space on to his mother's doorstep. Everybody has a choice in life, you See his small crib, you see them clothes in his closet. Do you know he's a murderer? Killed a man in the Towers, the same case his uncle (remember what he had to say about it.) paid lawyers from that same drug money to get him out. And once when he got out he still was trying to go back to the scene of the crime, Remember. Also he told Bodie, Wallace, poot, He kill the Women in the housing Complex. The same body he snitched on Wee bey about. I know this show some of it word for word. I feel for Wallace but not Lo, he was born in the game he knew the Gains as well as the consequences of the life.
