For me it's Omar and Mouzone Wild West-like standoff:
"Even if I miss, I can't miss"

OT: Your most badass clip from The Wire

Even so Snoop was a cold hearted killer, her getting whacked was sad.
Always loved this clip:
One of the greatest shows written. The season focusing around the school system really hit home for me. My first 4 years teaching were strangely close to what The Wire showed.
Just finished my 4th rewatch a few months ago. The way it holds up is amazing. And different characters/seasons grow on you. I actually liked season 2 more than ever and 4 with the schools might be the best.
How do you like the sales guy's reaction when she hands him that wad of cash? 😄 He did know his product and he earned that sh$t!
I love how she's telling him in street talk how she clips dudes with a .22 and he has no clue what she's talking about and she laughs and says I'll take this one. Gold.
My favorite show ever. Probably got 7 rewatches in me. I always like this scene and the look on Levy's face. There will never be another show like The Wire

On Season 5 of my 5th rewatch. Each time a new character gets their hooks in particularly deep. This time it was Bubbles (aka Reginald).
Don't know if this would be better suited to the "One Word Thread," but season 1, episode 4, when McNulty and Bunk were looking over the scene of an old murder . . . What a great series.
I'm watching for the first time, only about 1/2 way through the 2nd season. I cracked up when they sent McNulty in undercover to the brothel and Bunk and Kima find him in the room with the two women and he looks up and says "You were late!".
One of the great shows ever made. I come back to this scene when I think "badass".
And about half way to Bunk and the lie detector in season 5 -- just you wait! Man, that series was great!
I think it’s season 1 and Brody and Deangelo drive to Philly and Brody is surprised that the radio stations changed.
I liked both those guys and sad endings for both.
Omar’s death was a crazy one . All the bullets that guy dodged, that’s how he goes out ? Brilliant
The final season I didn’t like as much . The death of the newspaper business and that reporter making up stories . Did that really happen ?

Re: Omar’s death, there was a scene in the earlier seasons where Bunk was investigating a shootout and got angry because the kids were on the street playing around as if they were Omar. One of the kids was Kenard, who grew up to kill him. Amazing writing.
Found it…
For a stretch of my 20s and 30s, I didn’t know if I was McNulty Season 4 or McNulty Season 5.
I only saw the series once (I'm way overdue) and didn't catch the connection -- Thanks for that RC (I'll be on it next time)!
Watched many times and never made that connection. Thanks!
I'm with you RUPete -- I don't know how many times I would've missed it if Rutgers Chris hadn't brought it up!
