A great quote from Andre Royo (Bubbles)


"I did Law & Order while on hiatus from [shooting], and I got a lot of love ? they loved The Wire. In one scene, the cops come to my house because someone is killed and I have the weapon there. While we were shooting, I saw an open hallway and I ran out. And the director yelled ?Cut? and said, ?We?re not as smart as The Wire. On our show, you put your hands up and get handcuffed.? As long as there?s a character I can find some meaning in, I?ll do it. But being on The Wire has made looking at other shows and other scripts a little bit more difficult."

Johnny used to work on the docks, union men on strike, he's down on his luck, it's tough. Sorry for the first few episodes of Season 2 I couldn't get the Bon Jovi song out of my head.


Loved series 2 - more, by the end, than series one.


I can't wait for March - weekend of the 15th, some friends and I are going to sit down with a lot of chicken, some beers and the new boxset (my plans to stretch it out week by week are out the window)

"oh, indeeed"


I know of at least one forumite who is wont to call people "good poh-lice"


me, I have taken to receiving any bad news in a Stringer-like fashion -a deep inward sigh, some thought and then this-is-how-it's-gonna-be


And I don't mean ironically - I ACTUALLY believe I'm being that measured


As I've now broken my out-of-the-country-so-not-posting duck on a main thread can I also say I was HORRIFIED when I read Keef say he he couldn't watch the 2nd disc of series 2 - if I'm not mistaken that's the very disc where somebody very major does something bad to someone we care a lot about from series 1 - and he calls it like it ain't no thing!!!! I mean... sheeeee-it.

sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet


I keep finding myself doing that when I'm looking for something to cook in the fridge. Good to have you back for a bit Sean, you definitely good poh-lice.

Finished series 2 last night, Sean I'll get 1 & 2 back to you, do you have 3 at the mo???


What struck me is that after series 1 they didn't know for sure if they'd get a second series, so it could have ended there. However, they must have secured the backing for a third series before the end of 2, because it's just left a million things open.


My fave characters are Omar, Bunk, and without a doubt, The Bowtie Man >:D<

Mrs Keef likes Bubbles.

Carver is one of my favourite characters mainly because, as Sean says, you see him grow and redeem himself after what happens at the end of Season 1.


We watched the first episode of season 5 the other day. The quality was really poor though so we've decided to wait until July when it is shown on FX. Am going to struggle with the wait even more now I have had a tantalising taste of the new season. But I know it is for the best.

yeah I've been avoiding all season 5 spoilers and or torrent/downloads like the plague - hard as that is. It's partly the fact that once I see season 5 that's it


But I'm also waiting until end of season 5 to rewatch the lot - there is sooo much to pick up on with repeat viewings


Also am I alone in fancying McNulty's ex-wife?

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
