Everyone that died had to die. No stupid cinematic devices. Just pure narrative.

what got me the most was how omar got popped by a kid before ever getting butch's revenge.
season 2 was a waste, they could have got the point across in 2 or 3 episodes.

Every time I saw Bubbles I just knew it was his time to OD but he made it to the end
Man, I don't think I could've taken Bubs dying.
So glad he didn't.
As for Season 2, during my initial watching of the Wire I was on the side of those who were dissapointed with season 2. But after watching the series the 2nd time around I came to really appreciate that season. That season was pivotal in shaping the direction of the rest of the series.

Agreed....I don't know or understand why Season 2 gets so much hate. I loved every aspect of Season 2. The blue-collar feel of the city, the introduction of The Greek & his crew, the shipyard with the union, etc etc....It's just so fascinating how Frank held the Local in much higher regard than his own family...aka Ziggy. I could go on and on, but the framework for the entire series was formed in Seasons 1 & 2.

The point of the scene is that Marlo is obsessed with his power. This is a demonstration of the same character trait he shows by killing people he doesn't need to: he enjoys power and uses it just to do it, not solely for practical purposes. In response to a few comments down: David Simon himself said that he felt Marlo received a kind of justice. Even though he "survived physically" as one guy put it, his name is dead. The kind of power he craved he no longer has. Money is meaningless to him.
My name is my name....
So amazing on many levels....
I can see why there are college courses on this series. Honestly, you can read up on it every day and learn something new that makes you appreciate the hell out of this show. I know my dude DC HATES hyperbole, but this is the best show EVER made.

Marlo had just offed Joe and everybody knew it, yet in a matter of minutes he came in and took full control of Baltimore's drug trade. and not a single soul dared toobject. then he raises the package price just because he can."oh by the way, the price of the brick goin up".. dude was a straight up coldblooded G
