Yeah, it honestly makes me sad to see people I otherwise like watching those lame shows. The worst is that a guy I know watches them WITH his wife.SportsAndLady;1618258 wrote:On Monday, my g/f said "I can't believe how many of my stupid fucking friends watch the Bachelor."

Liking The Wire so far. About 3.5 episodes in. Does it stay this pace, or does it get bad ass?

It gets badass. A lot of people don't like season 2 at the docks. I really liked it. Season 3 gets awesome when you meet Marlo.

Didn't care for Marlo, didn't think the character was believable.TedSheckler;1618338 wrote:It gets badass. A lot of people don't like season 2 at the docks. I really liked it. Season 3 gets awesome when you meet Marlo.
Show is at its best with Stringer Bell - the greatest villain in tv history.

Marlo was my favorite badguy on the show. Snoop a close second. Stringer went soft when he got all educated.
You want it to be one way, but it's the other way.

You mean the character who is based off a real life person who actually has the name Stanfield and was created by the guy who worked for the Baltimore Sun during his time as a ruthless drug lord isn't believable??? Something isn't adding up lol.gut;1618342 wrote:Didn't care for Marlo, didn't think the character was believable.

I always felt like the character was some 18-19 yr old kid (although the actor was actually @30) which I thought was too young for the power he allegedly had. Real life dude was 25 at the peak.Laley23;1618348 wrote:You mean the character who is based off a real life person who actually has the name Stanfield and was created by the guy who worked for the Baltimore Sun during his time as a ruthless drug lord isn't believable???

Speaking of which, the actor was victimized by a drive-by.

I never felt Marlo was that young. Guys like Bode I felt were that young. Marlo always seemed older and way more experienced.

Did Frank really have a 3way with Meechum and his wife?
I totally saw Meechum banging Claire, but was shocked Frank joined in.[/SP]

It does start out a bit slow, but gets very bad ass. Although not quite in a way most other shows do which is what makes it the greatest show ever. I'm about to re watch the series for the 6th time, I highly recommend watching it again when you finish.ernest_t_bass;1618292 wrote:Liking The Wire so far. About 3.5 episodes in.

Almost through season 2 of the Wire. I liked season 1 better.
