Finally finished The Wire

Wow, what a ride. I was definitely hoping for a happy ending just for the sake of how into the characters I was. My favorite character by far being Jimmy, he was so fricked up but dedicated to his work. I dislike how they screwed him after dismantling the MCU after a year on the Stanfield case. Omar coming in a close second as my other favorite character.
The character I hated the most was Herc. He just rubbed me the wrong way the entire time.

I'm watching it for the first time as well and just finished season 1. When Omar come strolling down the street, whistling The Farmer and the Dell with a sawed off shotgun in his hand.... I mean that shite is just so awesome!

I found that once I finished the series (watched it about two years ago), I kept finding myself thinking about it a lot.
And my favorite character was prolly Cutty. Least favorite were Naymond, Cheese, and Snoop. Naymond Brice I wanted to punch in the face.

I didn't like Herc either. He was dumb and a dick but not bad enough to really despise.
I hated Naymond too.
The development of Prezbo from season one to season five was pretty unbelievable too (far fetched).
ETA: Avon was my favorite of the gangters. Bey was great too... Gif will live forever...

Its always funny that on a show often celebrated for its realism, its most popular character(Omar) was easily the least realistic.

The cop with the SUPER New Iberia haircut is the worst. I loved Wee Bey, Bunk and Lester Motherfrickin Freeman. I liked most of the characters. I actually got upset when some of them died (Wallace, Bodie) or ended up getting swallowed up by the game (Michael, Dookie).

The scene where the FBI agents are going over the serial killer profile that's basically describing McNulty while he sits there smirking is one of the best moments in the show.

Bodie and Snoop were my two favorite. I love the way those two went out, bodie went down fighting, and Snoop accepted her fate like a true G. After finishing the series, I rewatched the entire thing. I enjoyed it even more the second time around. I caught a lot of subtle things the second time that I missed the first time, which made it all that much greater.

I need to give the series another watch. I completed it a few years ago and really liked it when I was done. I'd say it's still probably in my top 5 favorite shows. However, for whatever reason, I find myself turned off by the fan boy reactions to the show and people taking any criticism of it as "hating" or whatever term you want to use. I guess the easiest way to put it is that I love the show, but hate the fans.

I'm starting season 3 as we speak. The acting is incredible for the most part.

Bodie was my favorite character. Such great character development
