after sydnor and Bubbles were doing hand to hands in the pit, they talk with Greggs and Mcnulty ( i think it was them) who are sitting in a van, after they are done talking, the van drives away, and in the background, you see omars van, he saw them talking, he put 2 and 2 together, thats how he knew that bubbles was a snitch, it wasnt until my 3rd rewatch i cought it.
It didn't hit me until later that Omar and McNulty first meet in a field of bodies. None of them put the bodies there. But the bodies are there, regardless, just the way the victims of The Game are. A few episodes later, Brandon's body joins them. Four season after that, Omar's does as well. A constant reminder of the way things happen in this series. Powerful, in retrospect.

robin stevenson - One of the most distinctive aspects of the Balmer accent is their pronunciation of the long U and O vowels. The first season Omar doesn't really have it yet, but he improved later.
I loved McNulty and Omar’s respect for one another. Two key Mavericks in the show from their respective worlds. McNulty never cared about drugs, just about bodies. Likewise Omar never cared about drugs or money but just about respect and street honour.
Whenever there was a meeting in the cemetery, at least one of those characters was marked for death. In the graveyard meeting between Brandon, Omar, McNulty, and Greggs, the doomed one doesn’t say a single word.
Omar shows that whether a man puts his dick in a dude or a chick doesn't automatically mean jack all in the end. Also, I'm a gay dude and I hate the word "bussy". *cringe*
@@dangelopaine7490 it's very hard to say . it could further the spiral or give them an inkling of hope ..just link them some funny videos and throw in some philosophy
Paulo Alexandre spent a lifetime honing this skill as good as Omar that is how I made it to my sixties with times plus ten we’re coming and I had to keep alive feel me
He was just in his early 20s, naturally he was careless bordering on being stupid (some people just have less common sense than others, part of life). But he didn't say anything. And no reason for him for them to send him to his grave with his face messed up.
Per McNulty Bailey was the smart one . They tried to capture him and he pulled out his gun and they lit him up. Which in hindsight was better considering what they did to Brandon
😂For me, he's among the top 3 characters of all time.✅He is the man whose New York accent and later his improved Baltimore accent I fell in love with.Michael.K.W was a great actor.R.I.P🕊Unfortunately, the good ones always leave us at the earliest.
1:45 There is a plot hole in the stick up scene with Omar. When his boyfriend says his name Omar flinches and goes “what the F” like he didn’t want anyone to know his name. Later his character is all about robbing on his rep and his name just by saying “Omar coming” I guess the writers of the show hadn’t flushed out his character yet but that scene always bothered me.
Omar said later that he started rolling different when he met Brandon. He even tells Brandon that he's usually happy when his name rings out but he was trying to hide their association for fear of losing Brandon
I always liked how in one breath Omar said snitching is not a part of the game, then the next breath he snitched on Bird about killing Gant (the working man)
If you watched the show you would’ve known. He was even laid up with Renaldo one episode and went out for Honey Nut Cheerios. Most importantly everyone called him a cock sucker if you pay attention.
@@vhscopyofrainman163 Yeah, I can see your mom being concerned about you calling males that you associate with your "friends". You gotta know that people are inherently horrible and your do called "friends" will be the first in line to take you down. Sorry to tell you this son, but your only real friend is a dollar in your pocket. My son didn't call other males his "friend", they either went to his school (class mates), or they were co-workers, and he never tried to keep in touch if they went to other schools or moved away from the neighborhood. He did call girls his friend, and he did make an effort to keep up with his female friends.. My son will turn 21 in January.
@@covertLLC that's too much to read. I said it because Omar is obviously gay and so is kima. Kima probably went through stages of people calling her partners "friends" when obviously they were in a relationship
Leon Rice nah he always played nice with the cops. Him telling them it was bird was useless until they killed Brandon and he decided to put it on paper. If they had not killed Brandon bird would have been free cause Omar would not have testified.
yeah, where's all the jingoist war criminals that somehow profess to be good christians? Y'know, the kind that boast about standing up to tyranny then turn around and label a whistleblower as a traitor? Man, i wish we had more of those hypocritical conservative keyboard warriors to look up to as role models!
Hunter Pence Omar was flawless! Omar was the best! Omar was highly intelligent & really planned out what he was going to do & had no fear of jumping off of a balcony 4 stories up & hid in the maintenance room of the same building & made a crutch out of a broom. Yeah, Omar ain’t no joke, he is the real deal.
"...Check it out yo, here comes that fool, he's packing!..." the random voices on the Wire are always hilarious
RIP Michael K. One of the greatest actors of this generation
I love how he knows bubbles is a snitch and in the entire series no one else notices.
Yeah, it seems like Omar and Johnny were the only two who knew Bubbles was an informant.

Unless you sittin on some work.. lol
he started the fight with barksdale
Uhhhhh what? Everyone who had a problem with him was responding to something he did. He started literally all the beef he had in the show.

Good catch, man. That's great symbolism right there.
Agreed. Nicely done. Raw essence
And McNulty just gets to pick up and leave, like he wasn’t even there to begin with.
Omars original crew was the best
all the original gangs were the best
I feel like like the one with the two girls and Dante were the best, and the most strategic

@@amorantoboy yup, they had arguments about it afterwards and the detectives were looking at that too. Her head went flying back as well, when she was running away from the ops
3:57 - That just took me out immediately. They added a pump shotgun sound effect to a double barrel. lmao
Even the police had respect for him
police only respect snitches
Yeah because he had a code he never lay a finger on anyone who wasn’t in the game
Because he was willing to not only cooperate but also lie in the stand for them
"Never get high on your own supply"....DOPEMAN DOPEMAN!!
Omar invented "no shame in my game". 😆
“The cheese stands alone.”
To this day I still say "Omar don't scare." it's my single favorite line from the entire show.
Omars comin
1:44 - Brandon gives up Omar's name, Omar bout to kill him and Bodie clicks right onto it.
I just finished season 5 and Omar's accent has changed so much. Michael K Williams got so much better with his accent.
What's the change, I'm Scots and can recognise 10 ish English accents. How did Omar change
???
robin stevenson went from a more new york based accent to a Baltimore based accent
robin stevenson - One of the most distinctive aspects of the Balmer accent is their pronunciation of the long U and O vowels. The first season Omar doesn't really have it yet, but he improved later.
As a famous example of the over pronounciation of O's: PO-liece.
"Chris and SNUPE, they on that."
"You put it that way I guess he can be a little problem." Lol

@B. LukeeBrandon, who gets tortured and murdered by Avon's crew (I think Bird & Weebay specifically) a couple of episodes later.
Their surveillance was tight. Bailey was even taking notes.
After they took Omar bussy away he lost all respect for street codes
The fact you know "bussy" is telling me something bout you...😂😜
BehindTheMask I was literally thinking the same thing 😂😂
Bruh
Omar shows that whether a man puts his dick in a dude or a chick doesn't automatically mean jack all in the end. Also, I'm a gay dude and I hate the word "bussy". *cringe*
@@luxitos2867 how is it cringe?
I like how he pumped the double barrel
"Yo' what the f-.......you stup-"
Omar never got past the death of Brandon. Brandon wasn't about that life. He should've known better. Cover your face, keep your mouth shut.
Brandon was about that life lol he got tortured to death and still didn’t give up Omar
@@deandreduckett4881 Yea that's true but he still fucked up. He could've lived had he been smarter. I wonder why Omar never dated again after?

The graveyard scene is the one that hooked me and didn't let go, I think a lot of other people can say that, too.
I dont remember ppl giving out free drugs during my addiction
It wasn’t free. They all pay around the corner and then get em from that guy. So the cops don’t snap pictures and get whole deal on camera.

Brandon fault from day 1 calling his name
and them being bare faced
Was not cool to send Chris to that store to pop that sweet girl them have the store owner blame Omar.
The guy was hanging around in the same turf, after robbing a gang of their drugs.
He was just in his early 20s, naturally he was careless bordering on being stupid (some people just have less common sense than others, part of life). But he didn't say anything. And no reason for him for them to send him to his grave with his face messed up.
Omar did say that "if you have been in the game as long as I, you do this on your name". Brandon did say his name, but Omar never really hid his name.
Hey, you have to kill someone, then you have to kill someone. But no need to mess up their face like that.
The pump sound on a break barrel lol
Bmore careful
I think bird was the only one that made Omar nervous
How? Omar got on the stand and lied on Bird. 😂😂😂😂 if Omar would’ve caught Bird on the street 10/10 he smokes Bird without hesitation 😂
Wish john Bailey was more fleshed out as a character
Yeah we never saw his death McNulty just talked about it
Per McNulty Bailey was the smart one . They tried to capture him and he pulled out his gun and they lit him up. Which in hindsight was better considering what they did to Brandon
Gotsta keep it clean
Omar didn't need a sawed off shotgun to be gangsta....that whistle does it for him

Sometimes who you are is enough dawg!! Wota gee
Anybody else notice he racked a double barrel shotgun?
duh, that was his signature
It's a very special double barrel shotgun
only flaw, sounds like he chambered a round in the shot gun. but it was a double barrel...
Jarome Money Bags kind of a big flaw... But i get why they did it.. For dramatic effect..

I didnt notice before, is there some sort of symbolism that Omar is wearing a New Jersey Devils sweater, or is he just a fan of hockey?
I always wondered how omar met his crew
OMAR NO JOKE AND DON'T PLAY...OK!
Nothing is more annoying than the pump shotgun sound effect when Omar aims his double barrel...
Gotta love the racking noise for the double barrel.😂😂😂
No sound ??
