    Landsman is a douche but fucking hilarious. And he's a master of the eulogy.

      Being a business major I learned to love Stringer. Business nigga had more potential to own Baltimore than any of the other gangstas.

      I don't think there is a bad season of The Wire, though Season 2 is definitely different than the rest. I'd rank the seasons 3, 1, 4, 5, 2... I hate putting 2 last, but as much as I hated the newspaper angle of season 5, I liked it's political focus.

        see season 5 to me was the worst because as you said, newspaper angle didn't like it, and while I can see McNulty doing what he did, it to me was out of character for Freamon to go along with it... and lastly I hated the way Omar's story ended, just fucking terrible.

        Season 2 > Season 5

              To avoid giving anything away, I read only the first post.

              But I'm starting this show next. I finished The Sopranos for the 2nd time, Rescue Me, Weeds, and just finishing Dexter.

                      If by "ass" you mean "superior to 99% of all TV serials," then sure.

                        I meant in comparison to the rest of the series.

                          unquestionably Season 2 pales in comparison to Season 1,3 and 4, but lets be honest its not bad by any means, in fact as i have stated before unlike the last couple seasons the show was still about "the wire" a formula that the show completely got away from other then sort of a half-assed joking way by season 5.
