Default Re: The Wire

Great ending. Mike is the new Omar. Carver the new Daniels. Sydnor the new McNulty. Marlo the new Barksdale - I like how he noticed the development game wasn't his thing unlike Stringer. Dookie the new Bubbles. And round and round it goes. No new Lester Freemon though, so the cops lose out.

Carcetti is just another politician getting elected on false promises and playing the game for higher office - which worked out like in real life. Templeton gets rewarded for lying, and will go on to national spotlight elsewhere while the better journalist gets stuck doing copy editing like Gus. On and on it goes.

Can't believe it's over. Aren't these guys doing something new relatively soon? I'll be tuning in.
