Luckily, he turns his back on the game before it's too late, and his redemption is one of the most uplifting parts of the whole series. It's not Omar who first says "A man must have a code." It's good to know he cares about the authenticity of his character and respects Australian and New Zealand audiences.

—JMW, If The Wire taught us anything about law enforcement, it's that there are generally two types of officers: those who are there for the paycheck and pension, and those who want to rise up the ranks to truly make a difference in their city. In many ways he's the ideal officer: incorruptible, thriving on his own curiosity, and operating mostly by the book.

* ''VideoGame/{{Far Cry 4}}'' has a few strong examples of this.

Sadly, it's only when he decides to come clean about his actions that they come back to haunt him, and it's the police who are to blame. Though I guess I could have made time yesterday when I got in that annoying argument on the Blue. —JMW, There are few more poignant moments in The Wire than "The Chess Scene" that takes place in "The Buys," the show's third-ever episode.

It's Bunk who gives the show's one really moving moralizing speech about the urban decay of Baltimore: "As rough as that neighborhood could be, we had us a community. But in the Wire, when two opposing forces square off, each is the hero in their own story. Like when he gives McNulty a hot mug of coffee after pulling an all-nighter and bringing home a big case. I did my first watch without subtitles, but ever subsequent viewing I turn them on. He loves his guys, no matter what. This content is created and maintained by a third party, and imported onto this page to help users provide their email addresses. And he's not having any of it.

In many ways, Bodie was a Stringer Bell in the making—and like Bell, earned the respect of McNulty (even if he would turn witness against his crew), which was ultimately (and ironically) his downfall. I don't trust Herc. * William Petersen in ''Series/{{CSI}}'' uses his own Chicago accent for the California-originating Gil Grissom. He's so viscerally moral, or trying to be, at least. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

In just those three minutes, the viewer learns everything they need to know about D'Angelo—namely, that while he may understand the mechanics of how the Barksdale family business works, he's not cut out for the mechanics of it. No, we see ourselves in Bubbles because we see someone trying like hell to make himself better. How'd they know the distance? He sucks down cheeseburgers.

Noticed the super watching but it didn't look to me like they were performing for him as much as two guys that "got it" as they walked in the door and were riffing back and forth at each other. Bubbles sees things most men miss. Sorry, you get hard-knock Polish-Americans, who get churned through the system like everybody else. On the one hand: He helps the likes of Rawls and Burrell juke stats, he's a law school graduate who's in the game for the political capital he can drum up, and one of his hardest-hitting early scenes depicts him—in no uncertain terms—instructing one of his subordinate officers on how to lie to Internal Affairs after that officer hospitalized a black teenager sitting on his car.

While it's Partlow who recruits good kid-turned-badass Michael Lee to "the dark side," there's also a genuine sense that he does this out of respect for his talent and abilities—not to just have another foot soldier. Or when he breaks down crying while eulogizing Ray Cole, who lays sprawled out on the pool table at Kavanaugh's. He sucks down cheeseburgers. Omar just says "no doubt" in response. It's all he knows in life and he's fine with that. Although now that I think about it, there was one step in their reasoning I wasn't clear on. Not the saggy, soiled clothes nor the dopey bucket hat. I know some people like the scene, and some people hate it, but I never thought I'd see some describe it as quite realistic.

** Averted and played straight not only in the same episode but the same scene. no laws against swearing on cable. is pretty much my default response to McNulty at all times. —EVB, It's his eyes. "He also had the advantage of always wearing excellent clothes.

A man has to have a code, he agrees with Det. But even beyond all that, Carver is one of the few seemingly goodhearted officers who is genuinely committed to making Baltimore better. The ineffective brute force of Herc and Carver, Freamon's knowing glance, Daniels exasperated "I'm embarrassed for y'all," and of course, Jimmy McNulty being the smartest fuck in the room: Maybe theme would be a better word there than purpose, but it's amazing how dense with meaning even the briefest of scenes are here. While it would have been easy to write Prez off the show completely once his badge is snatched up, it's in his post-police life, as a teacher at an inner-city middle school, where Prez finally finds his calling. * [[WordofGod Writers Toby Moss and Lucy Marlow themselves have suggested]] that in performing their show ''Theatre/{{Six}}'', actresses playing the parts in various parts of the world should perform the show in their natural accents. He taunts his detectives, pranks them, he cares for not much of anything except making the brass happy. I think he was extra violent in the bust in just so he could turn around and play "Good Cop" to bodie's mum. He has the second-best catchphrase (after McNulty's "What the fuck did I do? He has no respect for human life (see the bodies in the vacants for reference), and yet, what he wants more than anything is for his name to mean something in and around Baltimore. It's sort of like all the movies that win a ton of Oscars but make no money for the studios. Also, according to imdb there is an actor named Jay Landsman who plays a Lt Dennis Mello, which is very confusing. Jay Landsman is fat, wheezy, gassy. And he even managed to save one of them.

He outlasts Avon and Stringer's crew because, unlike theirs, his universe is devoid of drama. —JMW, Avon's very presence gives every scene on the show a little extra spark.

Which doesn't meant that Rawls isn't "a reasonable guy." Pretty shitty parenting, and, given that it might open him up to blackmail etc., seems like pretty shitty police work too. Insolvenzbekanntmachungen des Bundes und der Länder.

how to lie to Internal Affairs after that officer hospitalized a black teenager, he and McNulty say nothing but "fuck" to each other for four minutes, Mike Sager's essay about why Omar is the greatest character on, Why Omar Is the Best 'Wire' Character, No Doubt. Funny, I thought it was incredibly uncool in the opposite direction. Bodie avoids Herc and Carver. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/article_history.php. He heaves it away with great force". Also adding to his character's intrigue: the fact that we know nothing about him beyond what we see at the office... until there's a split-second shot of him hanging out at a gay bar (and it's never referenced again). Bubbles knows his soul is worth saving, no matter how long it takes him to do so. Marlo is cold-blooded. Marlo is fierce.

He loves good police work. Yes, even Ziggy. That night, and others, Landsman is utterly poetic ("sharing a dark corner of the American experiment").

And if McNulty, I have a vague notion that Omar got out of a longish prison term recently. Bunk: "Okay, then.

—JMW, Though he didn't live to see season two, Wallace—the 16-year-old drug dealer with a conscience—remains the true heart of The Wire. Those piercing, menacing, expressionless eyes.

I've been swept up in a work thing and haven't been able to do this. He's too frail, too soft, too innocent. * In addition to the Creator/EddieIzzard bit involving Robin Hood, he fails miserably at attempting a serviceable imitation of UsefulNotes/JohnFKennedy during his ''Dressed to Kill'' special, and instead substitutes his Creator/JamesMason impression. After a misfit stint as a hotel security guard, Bunny took his social-experimenting ways to the Baltimore school system, where he helped a team of researchers (and viewers) delve into the fascinating mindset of the city's at-risk youths.

It seems like in episode 3 he didn't want anyone to know who he was, but then explains that away in E4 by saying he didn't want anyone coming back on Brandon...but Kima doesn't know who he is, and the Barksdale crew seems to have only sketchy information about him.
