The show can be quite overwhelming. Despite all the interesting characters, it's not really a character drama like The Sopranos or Deadwood. In fact, if your focus is on characters, you're missing the majority of what the show is truly about. The characters and even the plot are just conduits for the big picture message that the show is trying to convey. There's a reason why there are books and college courses on The Wire. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Zello 20,147 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) This right here screams GTA to me. The way the camera moves around, Slim Charles and Snoop standing in the background, Prop Joe telling Marlo to steal a camera sounds like a GTA mission lol.

Zello 20,147 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Idris Elba was one of the best actors on this show. I was shocked as hell when I found out he was British he sounded like he was straight from Maryland. If COVID was a drug. Pandemic, Pandemic! Those people always shouting out what they called their drugs always made me laugh. The best was WMD. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Pink 12,205 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Used to love shouting "Pandemic" out randomly at parties. If someone got it, even better. Posting this here again as some people may not have seen it in the Cyberpunk thread. Frank Sabotka reference. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Zello 20,147 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) So I'm from Maryland and I went to public school all through middle school before going to a private high school. The attention to detail is insane I remember the MSA looking just like the paper and all that way back when I took it in 2006. The MSA is a test given in all public schools in Maryland with similar ones being called something else in other states I remember teachers and the entire school always being all serious about it and committing class time to focus on it. Hardly learned anything useful from it they only did it to show which schools were doing well and which weren't the schools with higher test scores got more funding from the government idk if it's still around I think No Child left behind got repealed a few years ago.
