Definitely the most overrated on The Wire. I felt like Omar was the most unrealistic character in the whole series. How’s a guy like that never gets killed by the drug dealers he’s robbing? I can only name 2 scenes where I enjoyed Omar, and one was when Bunk was lecturing him about what a parasite he was, and the other was when Brother Mouzone and him did a stand-off. That was it.

I was more interested in all the other realistic stuff going on in The Wire. Omar felt like a comic book hero or something. It was out of place in a gritty series like that.

Character was based off a real person that robbed drug dealers in Baltimore and was convicted of multiple murders.

Odd things happen when the myth is big enough.
