Also, kinda random, but I didn't even make the connection of Cheese (Method Man) being Randy's Dad until the final episode.

I must have missed that...where does that come into play?

I'd probably rank the seasons 3, 4, 5, 1, 2

S1 at #4?

Namond was the shittiest one & the worst actor, and he gets the happy ending.

Agreed. Namond sucked. Hard. And the kid actor sucked as well.

You've never watched any other show in its entirety before?

I have The Wire as my GOAT, but I've seen lots of other shows though. Best thing about The Wire IMO is that it's the GOAT, but it's hard to even explain why it is...it just sort of is. Great, great show and I plan on rewatching in a year or two.

Characters for me:

Favorite character overall is prolly Cutty for me. Other favorites are Bubbles, Omar, Stringer, Slim Charles, Bodie, Chris Partlow, and Marlo. Least favorite is Snoop (by a fricking TON...she fricking sucked bad), Cheese, Greggs, Daniels's wife, Clay Davis (sheeeeeeeeeeeeet....), Namond Brice, and prolly a few more I can't think of.

It doesn't come into play or have any relevance, but they both have the same last name (Wagstaff.) I've seen a David Simon interview somewhere where he confirmed him as the dad. It was just a small unexplored character detail, kind of like Rawls in the gay bar.

Found a link to Simon discussing it. LINK

Watching it recently and I was gonna be pissed if she survived the show, but so happy when she got killed.
