I'm watching the 1st season of The Wire and I just got done watching the episode where DeAngelo teaches the younger kids chess. I was blown away! I had to watch it a couple times to really pick up on it, but did you guys realize that when he was teaching them about the chess pieces, he was really referring to THEM being the pawns! What an amazing metaphor!
It was so deep and meaningful, I am amazed by the deep symbolism of this.
Do the later seasons continue on with masterful symbolism like this? This was truly the pinnacle of storytelling that I have ever seen on a television show, and I think I can confidently say The Wire is the best show ever made without even having seen the entire series.
Also the acting is amazing. Idris Elba and Dominic West do a great job with their Baltimore accents.

Right? IT WAS SO DEEP, MAN, I WAS LIKE WOAH!
McNulty and Kima drive to some podunk town in Virginia tracking how the gangs get their cell phones.
Jimmy decides he will talk to the racist, hillbilly sheriff without her.
Hilarity ensues.
Bodie's death sticks with me, more so than Stringer's or DeAngelo's actually
>>70419093
The scene where the FBI profiles the homeless killer and they describe McNulty and his motives
>>70422521
>high functioning alcoholic
-McNulty confronting Stringer Bell at the photocopy shop, realising that he's been outfoxed
-Stringer Bell telling Avon Barksdale he had D'Angelo killed in prison
-WHERE'S WALLACE YO? WHERE'S WALLACE?
>>70422398
Glad to see you missed the point of the scene.
What it shows is that DeAngelo sees something that would be very obvious to common people and thinks this makes him smarter than everyone else. He's seen the big picture now -- he understands how 'the game' works because he looked up and saw the sky and said that it was blue.

HOLY SHIT, MIND= EVEN MORE BLOWN!! FUCKING HELL THIS SHOW DOESN'T STOP GETTING BETTER

it's a common theme in the wire that some people in the game can see it from higher levels than the others and they all think they're the ones who see it best, ignoring their actual positions in the game.
The other kids 'don't get' the metaphor,
the up and coming kid 'gets it' but wants to know if there is anyway to get ahead, D'Angelo makes it clear "the king stays the king" and through that 'knowledge' he imagines himself better at the game, (but he's not much better than the kids, low on the ladder being used by his uncle), McNulty and Freemon think the same way, that because they see things better than the fuck-up cops, they're in a better position, but they're not, the tools of corrupt politics and a lucrative drug war that no one in authority actually wants to end. Same thing is mirrored between Stringer and Avon, Stringer think's he's in the better position because he 'gets' the game and the game the legit folks are up to, but he's actually in a far worse position than he thinks. Hubris and the hypocritical criticism of others without ever being reflective about it. Even the last season with the 'righteous' news editor trying to call out the journo who was making shit up - he thought he was in a better position because he saw the truth but he didn't realize no one cared, his whole profession doesn't give a shit, and instead of trying to clean an outhouse he should have tried to build a cabin.
The scene isn't about the obvious metaphor.
