Is he the most underrated villain in the whole show?
He was great one of my favourite characters.
>>63374504
for sure .. one of the best characters on the show
is he a villain?
Fuck
Im not even Greek
>>63374600
Well he was the one selling that raw shit in East Baltimore and later on the whole Baltimore
So yes, he was
>>63374631
just part of the game
>>63374612
>They know my name, but my name is not my name.
Based as FUCK
fucking gr**ks
>>63374682
Also:
>It's just business with us, buy for a nickel, sell for a dime.
His delivery was consistently excellent.
>>63374588
what show lmao its a sitcom
He was fantastic.
The "Greeks" were the biggest and best "bads" of the wire with guys like Levy and Davis following.
>Your money is dirty, it comes from the street.
As he rejects Marlo's case full of ghetto nigger money
>>63374722
absolutely horrible bait
>>63374710
>His delivery was consistently excellent.
This
If they weren't greeks were they turks
oh wait same difference
>They used to make steel there, no?
>people shit on season 2 when it's the best season
>>63375104
Man sobotka. I loved this polish motherfucker
>>63375242
Exactly.
> hur durr season 4 the best it has lil children and lil omar
>>63375337
in fairness even though the kids season wasnt my favourite, as far as child actors go they were pretty good.
im a pretty huge wire fanboy though so even at its lowest points its still like an 8
i haven't watched it in quite a few years but i think i'd go with 2 > 1 > 3 > 5 > 4
>>63375069
Isn't the greek disgusted by a turk at one point? I vaguely recall that happening. Maybe they're cypriots.
>>63375104
Greatest epigraph in the entire series. Followed by "How come they don't fly away?" by Ziggy.
>>63375428
>>63375069
He was Cypriot. Explains him not being Greek and hating Turks.
>>63374600
in the eyes of any given soccer mom hes pure evil but to most people here hes just a business man who happens to sell something the government has deemed illegal
>>63374504
literally just the right hand man of the greek, isn't he?
Why do people love season 2? It feels entirely inconsistent and disconnected from the rest of the series
>>63374682
Contrast with Marlo's my name is my name speech.
>>63375361
>5 not the worst season
haha ok man.
>>63375590
I'd rather be the right hand man of the wholesaler who keeps his name out of the papers than any of the fucking ghetto niggers.
>>63375599
Wasn't super fond of it, it felt like Sopranos more than anything.
Season 4 was top tier by far.
>>63375599
Cause the show was about drugs in baltimore. The harbor is a vital part of the city and the drug trade. Yes, it different then the ghetto stuff, because if was about totally different people.
>>63375599
the entire show is a major fuck you to the drug war, so they show the ghetto niggers first, then the smugglers, the politics, the journalists and the police. i agree it is kind of out of place and unique but it was amazing still
>>63375672
>was about drugs in baltimore
No it wasn't. It was about the workings of a modern city.
>>63375614
the only reason i didn't put 5 last is because i disliked 4 more. Also 5 had a reasonably strong start, it just unravelled like crazy
>>63375599
plebeian
>>63375690
>lets make a season about drugdealers
>let's make a season about how the drugs come into the city
>lets follow a character about his drug problem trough the whole series, until his clean
>let's have drug gang fights each other for corners
>let's have a whole season about the possibly of legalizing drugs in a part of the city
>let's talk about where the drugs money goes too
THE SHOW ISN'T ABOUT DRUGS PEOPLE
>>63375770
Some fucking people, mang.
>>63375361
Yeah don't worry bro I love all season of the wire. It's just that 4 gets the plebs favoritism when it's not even close to 2
i'd go 2 > 1 > 4 > 5 > 3
>>63375887
>3 that low
nigga why
>>63375836
why didn't you include when the dog jumps him?
>>63375555
One of the best was the final
"it truly is the life of kings"
>>63375899
Don't know i never liked 3 that much. It felt more like a transitionning season. Between the fall of barksdale and the rise of marlo
>>63375614
>Contrast with Marlo's my name is my name speech.

Fucking pleb.
Not to mention that past season 1 the drugs are always the secondary issue in the season.

Spiros was greek, but The Greek was actually Israeli iirc
>>63376295
technically not homicide, but hilarious regardless
>>63375069
>same difference
that doesn't mean what you think it does
>>63376094
>Not to mention that past season 1 the drugs are always the secondary issue in the season
are you on drugs right now? Sure, season 4 is about school system, 5 about the papers, etc. but still, it's always about how they deal with the problems drugs has created for them.
If the show was about the problem of a modern city, then it wouldn't be about baltimore in the first place, and drugs wouldn't be such a big thing.
>>63375069
>same difference
stay mad mohammad.
>>63374682
>They know my name, but my name is not my name.
Is he related to Marlo? Is this how he turned on Prop Joe so easily?
>people told me that Season 2 was probably the worst season
>watch it
>really like it
what gives? Why do people think that season 2 is the worst one?
>>63374504
There are no villains in The Wire.
>>63375069
>same difference
Huh?
>>63374984
sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeit
>>63376983
>MY NAME IS MY NAME
>my name is not my name
godlike pottery about how gangsta niggas care way too much about reputation while the greek is all about the money
He is not a villain
>>63375599
>this guy
>Why would someone shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane
What did he means by this?
>>63374631
Not to mention human trafficking.
>>63375242
Indeed.
>>63374631
supplying drugs to blacks
and
>>63378009
giving women great employment opportunities makes you a villain...
>>63376164
Love, those, but this is the best season opener ever:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxBGzUhT-TM
>>63375104
Was the second season the most substantial?? it sticked out in the show like a fly in milk at first glance, but come to think about it, it was very dense.
GOAT scene coming through
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QoYxLao-sY
>>63375242
I really, really dislike the part in season two with Greeks being in CIA and funding wars in South America or something.
>>63378601
>GOAT scene
>doesn't feature Omar
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DozVdtbMuM8
like this if the wire brought you here ;)
>>63375614
>>63375974
what do you fella's mean by marlo's my name is my name speech. out of character for him to get worked up like that?
>>63374554
>He was great one of my favourite characters.
me too
>>63375361
problem of the wire
-on the drug side : the children
-on the cop side: the romance
>its a Prezbo murders a police officer episode
>it's a daniels a black nigger fucking a perfect white woman episode.
>fap in disgust
Frank Sabotka was one of the best characters in TV history.
He's usually the first example of a good character I go to when people tell me how good Walter White was and his story arch, it has nothing on Frank in S2.
>>63379745
>fap in disgust
>>63379768
he was a good man
>villain
They are the true players. They dont care about skin color or ranks. Only money.
Ziggy is my pleb detector, if someone doesn't like him I know immediately that their opinion is worthless.
>>63377584
>godlike pottery about how gangsta niggas care way too much about reputation while the greek is all about the money
the best part is that people did not even know who he was if he did not say explicitly that he was marlo. all this retardation gets him being nearly shot to death.
>>63377963
Carcetti actually mentions something about being thrown from a plane in The Wire
>>63379975
Like him as character or the person he's portraying?
>>63379975
>Ziggy
>muh the idiot with good heart
Ziggy is the Fry of the wire...
He was so beta that he really believed that he knocked up the local whore.
what a pathetic man...
>>63379975
This. The best character of The Wire and one of the best ever.
>>63380112
What I mean is, if you dont think ziggy is an interesting well developed character then i cant take your opinion on tv seriously.
>>63380206
He's a good character but a shitty human being.
And never expected him to snap in the way he did. First time I saw the shooting I almost thought it was some kind of elaborate fantasy of him the showmakers were showing.
>>63380162
he was also so unlucky that he probably did.
Fucking rat fuckers all of you

6 people in 4chan, including the proxies, millions lurking.
>>63375599
It was super jarring the first time, but a very solid season. Probably in my top two.
>>63381088
>what did he mean by this?
season 5 is pretty good and doesn't deserve so much hate for been unrealistic.
as another anon said about mcnulty's story: it felt like a trainwreck happening in slow motion.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i98zHfCZQO8
>>63375573
yuropoors are so fucking stupid
lmao
>>63381219
And where does McNulty prefer to get drunk at, particularly in the earlier seasons?
>>63374988
alright sorry
>>63375729
>i disliked 4 more
Are you being a contrarian or do you just have shit taste? If it's the latter I'd like to hear your reasoning if you don't mind
>>63381276
Anywhere
Also, the chick who played alma in season 5 is married to d'angelo barksdale irl
Let that sink in
>>63378724
Omar is a meme
>>63381219
I just noticed I remembered every character when I saw their first names on descriptions in youtube clips. Now I think that would be called good writing.
