keltoi Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 i remember a year or two ago i slagged off the wire as just another american tv bullshit import after suffering some serious fatigue from lazy half arsed US drama filling the UK tv schedule instead of us producing some decent home grown tv worth watching for a change... but i'm taking it back and eating a fat slice of humble pie with humble cream and humble sprinkles... i decided to give it a chance when i saw my mate had the complete set on dvd, i'm now half way through season 4 and loving it... totally and utterly hooked watching 2 episodes on week nights for the last 2/3 weeks. omar = legend. anyway there's some golden quotage here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Sgj78QG9Bg&feature=player_embedded Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide keltoi's signature Hide all signatures Reveal hidden contents Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/50790-100-greatest-quotes-from-the-wire/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

perunamuusi Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 The wire is over rated and will come across as cheesy, in a few years, as tarantinos "gritty and realistic" dialogue does now. I was hoping this was going to be a thread of classic bloated pretentious bullshit espoused by The Wire magazine.

perunamuusi Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 The smugly superior guardian reading middle classes love the wire because it gives some illusion of edge to their dull ordinary suburban lives. For that 60 minutes a week when they are cool and get to hang out with their gritty cop buddies and get a glimpse into the world of "realistic" homicide and drug deals. It is no less a waste of time than watching lost or x factor.

Guest idrn Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 oh god ludd, you're right. that's exactly why i've watched all of the shield, i'm upping my telly game. vic mackey is a man's man, a family man, a man who doesn't take any shit off no whiny liberal poofters (or negroes and mexicans for that matter). salt of the earth mate. the wire is for homo panini eaters.
