D's character arc was absolutely heartbreaking. He was a really good man that just lost the birth lottery.
Selling drugs is a horrible person
@@AR-notoriousruthlessdialogue then pastors would be bad people then
@@AR-notoriousruthlessdialoguedoctors are the most despicable then
Na he won it, everyone is his neighborhood had it way worst than him.
He won it and lost it. Won it because he was born to a wealthy family, but lost it because they made him go that path rather than one that wouldn’t kill him
“Avon, let the boy be”..... the strongest quote in the series.
Too many amazing lines to quote...
Almost! “String? Where’s Wallace! Where the fuck is Wallace? String? Where the fuck is Wallace?”
"Avon, let tha boy watch.."
@@dooval434 The mix of rage, sorrow, and betrayal gets me every time.
@Seth Iddings Seth. You are 100 on that brother. And you see that many times throughout the show. Another thing that makes it so timeless.
D'Angelo was the character that originally made me love The Wire. He was deep, smart, complex, and principled. Born into a better place, he would have flown.
ugly though
DeAngelo was a good brother. He was born into the wrong world.
@Shah-Allah Shabazz born into the programme, family is overated
Yep
When he wrote that letter i knew
Fact💯
@Joel Johnson so who ran the pit before D. That's the real question
This show had some of the best casting in television history.
Sadly it was a cast of mostly the wrong demographic... allegedly. This show didn’t receive one major award. Biggest travesty in film history.
@Ryan Akwar Those are some sad ass participation awards for what is generally regarded the top drama series of all time
@Ryan Akwar Yeah fair enough. Besides we all know the Emmys and Golden Globes have been diluted and biased for a long time
To be fair, Sopranos was airing from 1999-2007. The Wire was on from 2002-2008
@Ryan Akwar as great as that show is .. ITS NOT better than the wire .. smh this is the most realistic street TV show you would ever seen
whoever did this edit is doing gods work son
The Wire was clearly Gods Plan
It was wild ass show
😂😂😂😂😂
@@aquaafterlife1009 it was regular for me.
@@aa-vg6rn lml dang. whether we can do it ourselves or not isnt the issue. its that someone did it and we like it and we showing love... i cant understand how that can be turned into something negative...
My whole life I’ve felt like D’angelo, I’m 31 now and I can’t seem to get out. Praying for better days.
@@RetroVideoGamer23 yes its a great idea for him to answer that
Praying alongside you. You got somebody
I'm right there with u bro here's to hoping that one day in this crazy world that we can finally breathe easy.🍻💯
Where the f*** is Wallace!!! Such a great scene... And I'll share something that a wise man once told me. Perhaps to possibly reflect on in your prayers.
"Life doesn't have to be easy in order for life to be good... "
Change is possible don't lose hope
Sounds like a choice more so D'Angelo...
Coldest part was stringer boning his girl after he had him murdered
Nah that’s on her bitches got not loyalty to me
In Stringer's defense that girl was fine as hell.
@@guywithdreads fuck that part he had him murdered
@@dayra6425 wait isn’t stringer d’s uncle or only avon his uncle
Cause if stringer is in d’s family thats fucked up I could never kill anyone in my blood regardless of what they do.
Telling a mother she doesn't care about her kid.. Can't get much worse than that as a mom. You can tell by her tears that stuck her in the heart. Mcnulty was 100% right
Exactly
No doubt. I hope nobody out there got a mother like her.
i did. thats why i killed the bitch.
intense scene...
Tyler Nelson
She was not a bad mother...Thats part of the reason Dangelo was essentially a good kid. She was trying to balance loyalty to the family with loyalty to her son. She was looking out for him. She was in a sense ignorant but, then again, if she had told him to do his thing, well we see what happened.
I read the actor actually thought he messed up the "string, where's wallace" man that was one of the most powerful scenes in the whole series. sublime acting
Umashin Same with Wallace getting shot under a poster of Tupac. Been ages and i still remember that scene
@@tbhUSuckOo Man I remember thinking with all my heart "Man, how's Wallace going to get out of this jam?" like, he's a lead character, right? They wouldn't kill him. After they took him out, I swear I kept waiting for the dream sequence to end and him to wake up in bed somewhere. I couldn't believe it. Hit me hard. God damn what a good show.
“You gonna look out for me, Sgt. Carver? You gonna look out for me, right?”
Legit tears
@@barry6290 That's how you turn a good bad.
Casting for DeAngelo and his mother was stellar!! They definitely looked like kin and their acting was incredible.
true, I've always thought it was D'Angelo wearing a wig lol
D'Angelo was by far one of the saddest characters along with Wallace on the series. It's a shame that his family refused to see that he wasn't built for any of it.
Yooo…he was raised in the life. If that ain’t built for the life, I don’t know what is
That's why I love the parallel with Namond. He was just like D'Angelo, except he made it out.
@@carsormyrDee had more grit then namonds punk ass.
Dookie
@@carsormyr its crazy cause namond mom is much much worse than d'angelo's mom, thats why you need a dad, his dad allowed him to escape
"All my people, man. My father, my uncles, my cousins. It's just what we do. You just live this shit until you can't breathe no more." chokes me up because this is how it is in life, some people just get born into never having a chance.
Everybody has a choice some of them just suck. Some of the choices just really really suck
Your right some people really don’t get a chance from abortions to abuse fresh into the world but with lack of sympathy see it as excuses but people they lived a very very rough childhood by default understand that quote
💔💔💔
In the U.S man, you turn 18, join the navy, be a sailor and save your money to go to school after or while in.
not true at all, you're horrible.
D'Angelo is the perfect character that can define the genius of The Wire. A good person who was thrown into that life due to his environment. Whether it be police, drug dealers, politicians, every character is humanized. It is not a good guy vs bad guy type show. Every character has their positive and negative traits, just like in reality. You also do have run of the mill sociopaths like Marlo and Chris, which we do see in real life as well.
+shonte brent That is his environment. His family, being in the game. Please
+shonte brent family is considered ones environment. And you right he did have a choice but I'm sure this game was the first thing he was introduced to. They weren't delivering college applications to him they was giving him packs. So like the original comment said, his "environment" is what influenced him
+shonte brent money goes away as soon as u leave the drug game but I get your point
Every character except for Marlo Stanfield. That guy was evil to his core.
Yeah, murdering drug dealers; wonderful people. Enough of that liberal excuse bullshit. You're responsible for the crap you do.
Namond was D'Angelo who got out in time, who had people early on who gave a damn about him namely his father; the last season Wee Bey found his redemption in his son knowing the game just got even deadlier and his son was not made for that kind of life.
Phenomenal comment 👍🏿💯
Namond was a punk though
namond was even worse man, he was straight fragile unlike d'angelo
We never D as a child. His pops is never shown. We dont know how many pastors or teachers or sisters cared for him.
All we know is his uncle was a boss and his momma was a princess.
Namonds dad was gone forever. And he was confronted by an OG who knew where the block ended andwho got killed where.
Wee knew the man was true and was and educator. And and saw something special in the child of a serial killer.
Thats real deep. I mean weebay was gonna be there for 40 yrs. He didnt wanna eat lunch wit his son.
@@ndot3886 "worse"? Not a thug.
The scene between he and Avon was so deep, voicing for Wallace’s freedom like that. Him risking his own life in a Sense for the chance he wasn’t given.
The way they put "Be a little slow and little late" dialogue at the point of him being strangled was pure genius.
Powerful analysis!
"where the fuck is Wallace...huh...String, String, look at me, look at me, where the fuck is Wallace!!" One of D's best scenes.
where's the boy string
"Thats all I wanna know"
Idris Elba was just looking at him like he was a mad man Lmaooo. 😂😂
facts
One of the best scenes in television history
That moment when you thought that D'Angelo was the protagonist of the Wire during the first season, but as the series goes on you actually realize the Wire has no protagonist!
The protagonist was the game
I thought the show was gonna be the streets from D'angelo's perspective and the Cops from McNulty's. Glad it didnt play out that way tho.
The protagonist is Baltimore city
For me that protagonist was Bubs. During all 5 seasons if I didn't see Bubs my question was "how's Bubs & where is he"? A beautifully nuanced, complicated story, his character development was outstanding. Seeing him finally sit at the table was worth it all.
@@SirDuke81 cool idea
D'Angelo is the perfect example of how your environment shapes your destiny
No he’s not. The boys from season 4 are a better example.
No it doesn't. Your environment doesn't shape your destiny at all, victim complex continuing noob. It shapes a lot of things but not your destiny
@@yelhsanosnhoj6602 I'm not saying you're wrong but that's just a personal opinion.
@@masterbaiter9856 in D Angelo’s case he could’ve been anything in the world he had all the privilege but he decided to be a drug dealer because he thought it was cool. The kids from season 4 all started completely different from how they ended because of their environments shifting. Mike was a good kid with talent but his stepdad coming home caused him to neglect that for a life of crime. Randy living happily with his foster mom was tricked by crooked cops into telling and changed drastically due to being bullied. Namond being a wannabe rather than his true self. Dukie wanting to be more than his parents but ultimately succumbing due to pressures around him…
@@yelhsanosnhoj6602 wrong; D’Angelo was born into the game, he clearly talks abt it when he’s in the interrogation room w bunk & Mcnulty. All the pressure he received from even his mom, it’s evident he was a victim of his family dynamic.
I don’t see how thats privileged, maybe w material things (money, clothes, cars, lifestyle) everything except the privilege of freedom over his own life/legacy. The minute he tried (by cooperating w the police), he was convinced to take the 20 yrs & killed shortly after.
He was doomed from jump just like the boys in season 4, both just playing different sides of the game
really shows how human D really was man. They should do one for Bodie
Bodie the 🐐
@@liltrap4723 Loved Brodie a real one till the end💔♥️
Bodie killed he’s own boy this show is sad but so true
Bodie was an idiot. D angelo didnt have to be in the game. He had money and options.
Bodie was in the gamw with little options.
There is a difference.
Hated Bodie!! He was just a street guy he had no depth like DeAngelo or even Omar. Never forgive them for Wallace
This tribute is so damn good, I watch it everyday.
EpicDude me too man ..sick bit of editing ..subtle but the point ...shoulda used this as a trailer
@ EpicDude - Me Too Man!! 😢😢
Amen
Amazing video. The Chess scene is the best scene in the whole show. D'Angelo is easily the saddest character in the series.
Bodie is pretty sad by the end of his life / time on the show. bubbles tried to put a good spin on things but you could see how badly life has beaten him down. and id also say micheal was sad before he just learned to shut all his emotions off.
Wallace
Dukie or Wallace
For me it's the Wallace scene that kill me man. The parallel between D and Wallace was always there. What choice where they given? What path could they take?
Nothing. To me what's even worse is everyone was telling him what he was supposed to do for them, for the family, but no one ever thought twice about Wallace, all that talk about family but D's own Mother cared more about the damn lifestyle, about the fucking game then she did D'Angelo. I know a few Mother's that we're like that, or ones where there high's always took the front seat.
Both characters desperately tried to some control, any kind of path that didn't take them to iron bars or the cold dirt.
Wallace got one, D got fucking both. And if the end you just have McNulty... He just wanted to give some kind of closure to someone, anyone that actually care about him.
At least Wallace didn't see the end until it was forced on him, but D saw the end coming all the back at the chess board.
Did everything he could, and even still was choke to death, all alone, on the orders of someone that's been lying to him for years.
"Hey String, where's Wallace at? Huh? Look at me String! Where the fuck is Wallace?"
Tbh D story hits really close to home for me man. I knew to many fucking people in my life, that lost there's, all to some bullshit like that, from someone that was supposed to be there for them.
Yeah, but it's all in the game, right?
All three pawns died
Honestly "I was looking for someone who actually cared about the kid" That line cut her deeeeep. Great video edit. Shows you how sad the D'Angelo story really is.
Man the truth hurts
McNutty was a lot things but when it came to his cases or things he cared about, he was a ‘Dog On A Bone’
Can we acknowledge what phenomenal acting this guy did in this role?
This might just be the saddest and the most profoundly disturbing 'the wire' edit ever.
@Joel Johnson fuck stringer
The Sopranos & The Wire, best things ever happened to TV.
"If I make it to the end, I'm top dog?" -Bodie
My two favorite shows!
Yes, it's true, but you forgot Game of Thrones and Braking Bad. These 4 things are the best, that ever happened to TV.
Bence Horváth Not a huge fan of Thrones or Breaking Bad, I don' think they are even in the same league as The Sopranos or The Wire. Btw, Nice profile picture Eddie.
Eddie Mush CAN'T FORGET oZ, CUZ IT CAME FIRST...
Oz was tough!
The scene at 0:50 is one of the reasons why the wire is the greatest show of all time. As Deangelo explains that the pawns 'be out the game early', he looks towards Wallace who incidentally was one of the first to go. Bodie on the other hand, was a pawn that stayed for the long haul, albeit, he was always a pawn.
Was thinking of that as well. Also, the fact that Bodie made it to the end (near the end of the series), yet, as Deangelo said, he wouldn't win or be top dog as he (Bodie) believed. And, when Bodie said "unless they some smart-ass pawns", he showed that he was indeed just that and wasn't taken out early. Incredible foreshadowing in that scene.
@@rafalladysz2531also interesting that all 3 of them in that scene are pawns really and all end up murdered. Also bodie even brings up the pawns when talking to mcnulty before he is killed
If Avon really believed in family, he wouldn't have put Dee in that situation. He had that man driving a rental full of bricks. Crash dummy type work.
Cool Breeze he was the only one Avon felt he could trust
@@YahushuaIsMySavior333 No spotter car, no decoy car. Avon treated him like just a warm body. It was Avon's carelessness that sent D'angelo to prison.
FattyMagoo Avon put him in a bad situation but he made the decision himself to go through with it
@@environmentart i can already tell by ur comment that u are 100% the type to agree to do somethin even though u know the risk then when the water gets too hot for ur ol scary ass ud be tellin on everyone. at the end of the day YOU are the 1 making the decision. dee sent himself to prison...whether it was right or wrong on avons part is irrelevant to that fact
slugz if a nigga like Avon told you what to do you doing what that nigga says
The development of D'Angelo as a character was paramount at bridging morality with the game. He had too much of a heart to exist in world so cold. This video is a brilliant portrayal of this, nicely done.
I see what you did there.
Capcoor wat did he do
Well said ♥️
Man I almost break down in tears everyone I see this. The wire is one of the best shows to ever to come on man this show is one of a kind
Oh aight
9:27 - 11:21. Two British actors sounding exactly like they are from Baltimore. Absolutely perfect.
McNulty: "I was looking for someone who cared for the kid. You were the one that made him take the years." [Exits the room]
Disembodied VOICE: "FATALITY!!"
Lol underrated comment
🚨💯
Savage but true
Man the way he delivers his lines...man that dude there....
that line wasnt funny nor will it ever be
I wish D'angelo lived throughout all of the series
So what? You're saying the word "snitching" as if it's a bad thing.
@jessesam He should had snitch them becoz at the end they killed him for nothing, he want to be out of the game.
Fuck that, he didn't deserve death
They didn't kill him Stringer paid for the hit bc he thought D was gon snitch then told Avon he did outta anger bc Avon wouldn't help Stringer get back clay Davis for stealing stringer bell money Avon and his ppl had nothing to do with that then u seen what Avon did to stringer when he found out right Avon had a heart for his ppl and never would of let Anything happen to D
Suraj's opinion is not better k? Bitch it us
That is why "The Wire" is arguably the greatest tv show ever. Powerful
I agree whoever put this together managed to create a powerful glimpse into a single character and the influence he had on the entire show. And to think similar situations like this play out in real life every single day, year after year, decade after decade.
"Honestly? I was looking for somebody who cared about the kid"
Shit hit deep.
The only thing you missed was D's great gatsby epiphany. It was the last great speech he gave
oh hell yea!
+Clark Kent Fucked up note to end on too. Mcnulty always talk shit like he know everything about everything, she didnt make D take those years cause she didnt care its like she said how the hell can he have a life without family. He was ready to abandon his son cause of issues he had with his uncle.
+blacktee31 Don't be naive brother, I think programs like witness protection include your family and I didn't really see any members of his family worth doing years for I think that was the point McNulty was making no one really cared about his well being they were only concerned with having him do what they needed to be done at a certain point in time.
Tamora Easterling Nope thats not naive at all, cause all of his family is in the game. That was the point. . Otherwise why would his mother remind him of that? And his baby mom and son and aint his only family Im sure. I mean damn Avon had Wallace killed that was fucked up(he snitched) but thats his uncle and blood is thicker than water period. All he had to do was serve his time like Avon said(Avon tried to get his sentence shortened). He went to snortin coke and completely turned his back on them. Turnin them in wouldve been cowardly, they did nothing to him his mama only ever had his back. Wallace has nothing to do with them he kno thats part of the game.
His mama wasnt concerned with his well being? Is that why she got on to Avon before she went to talk to D? Dont get shit twisted, Avon looked out for him and even warned him before he ended up dead. If D kept his head up and his eyes open he wouldnt never got caught slippin. Avon did some dirty shit but he still treated D as family and was about to set aside somethin legit for him so he didnt have to sell coke he aint have it in him to continue on anyway.
but like why was D in jail in the first place? Why did they have him go pick up that coke in the first place? At the end of the day, regardless of blood, he was just a disposable member of the Barksdale crew To Avon and String
06:10 - most memorable monologue in all series. He literally wanted to be out of the game - not only physically, but mentally. He was the only character that was fully aware that the "game" was like an evil state of mind. An the dialogue between him and his mother (06:45) was probably the one to decide that he remain in the game and didn't snatch his companions. Irony is that the person who should be always for him and his will for happy life - his mother - was the one who condemned his thoughts. Sad but true.
Thats not true. Weebay knew. He just had no options. Stringer went to school and tried to get a degree.he saw the change.
D angelo was younger with no baggage. He could worked in a fish fry shop and been fine. But he went into the game.
D angelo love for wallace is very important
He saw Wallace's kindness to those kids he was taking care of.
McNulty took his moms soul...one of my favorite build up in the series
McNulty gave a fuck he wanted D'Angelo and bodie out the game and wanted them to relocate to a another state. He cared about the main ones he cared to get them out the game and and move out of state. Unfortunately a happy ending are never the ones we get.
@@KSoloLoso True. He was trying to get them out into a different life, she was the one that convinced D'Angelo to stay, cause she was trying to save her own skin.
My favourite character, don't know why people don't like him as much as others
ppl like hard wickedness
Mine too!
He was cool
@Realjayrome stringer snitched
Remember what Prez said in the one episode pertaining to a sports game? "NEITHER SIDE WINS. ONE JUST LOSES MORE SLOWLY." The street life is the same way.
D'Angelo was very misunderstood. He did some bad shit, but in the end, he wasn't meant for the streets.
He coulda been out. And said yo uncle i cant do this. Let me run a corner store or soul food spot. But he wanted to be in the pits.
Remember in the show there were OGS who ran tire shops. Fat andre had a corner store. Joe had a clock shop.
But D wanted to be collecting fake bills from fiends in a pit.
Come on?
@@hellocandy1152 He probably lacked the necessary skills to run a business; even something like running a simple corner store. I dont think the audience was ever shown the highest level of education D'Angelo completed. Its safe to assume he's a dropout like most of the cast.
No one is "meant for" the streets in the first place, it's something that marginalized communities are forced into because systemic racism and disenfranchisement limits our options in life and causes us to lose faith in playing by America's racist rules which are designed to oppress minorities and low income families.

Goes to show that there are almost never any true winners of the game
Wallace was a younger version of D'Angelo. Both wanted to get out of the game--just at different points in the game.
@Ol smooth kid facts Cutty def is on the list f the good.
Where the fuck is Wallace
Last scene kills me every time.
That scene and "Where's Wallace string?" is so sad.
@ March Fifth - I Agree 😢😢
"D'Angelo, shut your mouth."
Mcnulty called her out big time
March Fifth yeah fuck Brianna, honestly. McNulty had that shit spot on. She was more worried about the money than her own damn son. The fuck you need the money for if it ain't about taking care of your own. Fuck Brianna, fuck Stringer, and fuck Avon. Fuck em all
This isn't just a great edit; it's a genuine work of art worthy of the drama it's drawn from. Thank you for posting.
I loved that part, when Jimmy made D Angelo's mother feel guilty
D'Angelo was raised too much like a human for this business. I wonder why Brianna let her little boy go into this life.
I'm guessing she wanted D'Angelo to provide for her like Avon did in the past.
Namond is going to be Wallace/D'angelo
Micky House Namond got out. Remember?
Oh shit i meant Randy my bad
Namond gone end up like Daniels or Bunk MultiFeezy
D'angelo was probably my favorite.
His genuineness. He was the one I could relate to the most. And he couldn't help he was born into his hell hole. I felt really bad for him.
The background music is chilling..
"I raised him right" one of the most depressing lines in the series. It was sweet watching McNulty genuinely hurt that monster of a mother.
Ehh, I wouldn’t go so far to call her a monster. DeLonda definitely takes that cake. I do agree with everything McNulty said though and it reigns true. She was D’s mom, she knew her son better than anyone, she should have known he wasn’t cut out for that line of work. What she said to D when talking him out of the deal was true too though; if it weren’t for drugs and the empire Avon built, they would still be struggling and likely wouldn’t have been a family. So to her, it was a no brainer that D would be willing to go along with it. It’s all she knew, so she figured D would look at the same way as her. Thing is, she’s a woman, so she doesn’t know the half of what the men that provided for her did to succeed. D did, and he wanted no part in it. Ultimately she raised D the only way she knew how, and D tried to live the only way that he could, but he was a victim of circumstance.
She definitely was not a monster. Not at all. She was born into the game as well. They had rules. You don't realize where they came from. She loved him. With all her heart. She was just indoctrinated into the game. That's why McNultys words hurt so deep. The game is the game...always.
@@serendipitousslim1529bro FUCK DeLonda to hell and back
Sobbing. Just finished Dee's final episode. Great vid/voice/music mix. Dee and Wallace were just too good for the game. I can't even... being manipulated by his poisonous family all his life and then being killed, it's just too tragic. Dee was such a good character. He had heart and courage. I'm glad he finally got clarity of the mind before he died.
I love this character so much. He really was a good kid, and a smart one.
D'angelo was one of my favorite characters his story was tragic being forced into the drug game due to his family ties but the part that hits home when he says " I was more free in jail then I was at home" that was deep
He was my favorite character in the series. Hurt like Hell the way they did him in the end...
who ever made this video went in for real it showed me the truth about D Angelo momma she didn't give much of a damn about him for real
Oh no she cared dearly about her son. I have no idea what you're talking about. She wasn't perfect, but she put family over moral and that was her mistake. But she loved her son and it shows.
Hard disagree. She cried so hard because she knew McNulty was right, that she sold her son out for the game, knowing how toxic that world is.. and that he just wanted out. She signed his death warrant by urging him to take the years. She cared more about herself and Avon and the illusion of family than she cared to listen to her own son speak the truth. I think deep down she did care and love him, yes. But only after facing the consequences, only after having to confront the possibility that not only did her brother organize his murder, but she put him in a position where that could happen.
JayFalconsfan404 yes she did. She talked him out of the deal but that's only because it would've hurt their family. D couldn't have gotten a decent job to provide for his family. The idea that he could've just started a new life and get a decent job with the record he had wasn't possible. D screwed himself by blowing up over Wallace in front of Stringer and Levy and wanting to stay in prison rather than be a free man when he had the opportunity to significantly cut down his sentence. He could've done what Avon told him to do and gotten out and been taken care of by Avon and him and Stringer possibly could've changed the way their business with the way they looked at business. I wish they would've gone that way with the story line instead of him getting killed because it would've been very interesting to see how their business turned out.
If only I knew how to edit like this, I have alot of Wire ideas................
Sound Logic
More or less true.
The greatest television achievement of all time 👏🏾
I'm not crying...just something in my eye!!!
Out of all the amazing characters in The Wire D'Angelo was my favourite. This edit is brilliant, real emotion that hits you in the stomach
No way...... Omar son. Sum bitch was like Billy "The Kid" or some shit.
So sad....I will never forget this show, pure class

Because he had some morality

11:18 She is crying and then her bling bling comes in the frame. Oh, I love these details, this show is such a gem.
Yeah I noticed that too. Sometimes I wonder if they did that on purpose to show that in the end all you are left with is your material wealth while you lose what really matters.

Everything McNulty says is spot-on--DeAngelo was a good kid who sadly had nobody looking out for his best interests--his "family" used him for what they could get out of him--they couldn't just love him for who he was. How many kids out there have this same bad hand dealt to them?? Tragic and heartbreaking!!
The mom at that moment finally realized what DeAngelo was trying to tell her, tell Avon and crew to let him be. Let him do his years and let him walk away from the game. Brilliant story line, best TV show that showed the drug game from the street corner all the way to the government level..........
Beautiful. One of the most underrated characters in TV history.
McNulty at the end is savage af
The character development in this show is unmatched to this day.
What a great fucking show.
This shit makes me wanna cry. First time I watched the series I didn’t realize how sad his story was.
4:09 Stringer is like the Devil on D’s shoulder
I can't believe that in this masterpiece of a show, they even managed to show an indepth discussion of people using family as an excuse, and a tool for their wrong doings
I’m white but this was my life! South west Philly I grew up in the Town Garden's Projects "It's not Race it's Culture" I cant believe that someone put it together so poetically into words, something i have always struggled with!
Shakespeare said “Brevity is the soul of genius to be able to say a lot with few words”
One of my favourite videos ever
HBO has been chasing perfection since the inception of “The Wire”
I felt sorry for D'Angelo, especially after he futilely took up for Wallace.
This is hands down my favourite Wire tribute.
I was soooo fucking sad when he died. I was bawling my eyes out
This character arc and Wallace's broke my heart twice over, The Wire is like a road map for the lives of so many young men back in the day, absolute giant of a series, thanks for the reminder
This show created some memorable characters and each actor really ran with it making it their own. From the ones from and center to a lot of the smaller part extras.
“Yo string ! Where’s Wallace ?!”
Prison was a fortunate and unfortunate situation for D, I think he knew serving the prison time would be his only way out the game.
There is not one wasted character or throw away line in this series, and the acting is phenomenal. Such a powerful show exposing the hypocrasy of the world in which we are socially engineered to live in.
11:18 that jingle jangle of her jewelry at the end to wipe a tear
Wallace getting killed was the sadest scene in the whole show.
The scene where Wallace tells D’Angelou he wants to get out and go to school D’Angelous face gets me every time like he knows exactly what Wallace is feeling, so sad man
One of the most underrated best character ever made. period.
D‘Angelo simply wanted out. Just like Wallace. Just like most of us who live in the inner-city. Both characters brought tears to my eyes. Hit too close to home #TheGameIsRigged
One of the saddest deaths in the Wire other than Wallace. Great editing here
Dee was such an amazing character on this show. Wasn’t on for a super long time, and still one of the most memorable by far. Shit, I think about him all the time.
He was so beautifully brought to life by Larry Gilliard Jr. One of the best roles in TV history
D Angelo Wallace Mike these three hurts my heart. These three are my favorites
I wish all them had a happy ending
Keep coming back, this edit does such a great job at humanizing every character, especially d’Angelo.
The Brodie foreshadowing "the pawns man...in the game, they get capped quick"...
"Unless they some smart ass pawn" -Dead Brodie
All 3 in that chess game died damn smh This and The Corner Gets to me bruh💯 Raw and heartfelt...Neva Again
DeAngelo Character development was to powerful man, this is really how it be in the real world...
Our Hearts be pure, but the environments corrupt our minds.
Dee was actually a good manager, turning the Pitt around. They should have left him in the Towers. If had been just a little more shrewd like Cutty, he would have done his time and made it out of the game. He was actually a 'key' as he drew the Wire to Barksdale and also dived String and Avon. Dee was String's a Achilles heel. String should have just left him alone.
4 real
He was immature in ways but was also very smart in ways too. Its just that he was too trusting of his uncle and allowed himself to get caught up in a situation that ended up costing him his life. Avon really didn't care about Dee. The only part he felt obligated to was the family part. Other than that he didn't care about Dee as a person and individual.
mikem987 no d should of known better then living with emotion and breaking under pressure d should been a man n took his time on the chin like the weebays it aint right he was bout take every body down with him he fucked up nobody else a smart man wouldve never went to new for 30 min with a brick a raw n the trunk
I forget how good this show was but beautiful videos like this remind me there will probably never be another show that was able to capture a time and moment like this show did the sopranos is another but not like this this was so real to what goes on in a inner city and living in and out of major citys it was just sad how true alot of the source material is the world is all a game and we all have our roles to play in it
D'Angelo was so star-crossed.
