  • Contains MAJOR spoilers for Season 1-5. A collection of the best death scenes from The Wire, with a few exceptions. I wanted to include Frank Sobotka's last walk, Ziggy killing Double G, The Greeks executing the shit captain, Marlo killing Devonne and others but I was limited to 10 minutes. Enjoy.

      Rick James it’s not about being an angel. He played the card he was dealt. He was loyal, had depth, and had feelings, that’s about as good as you can hope for in his world.

      I really hated his character in season 1, long before Wallace...
      As the show went on though you realise he's just another product of his environment and out of all the idiots around him he was one of the smarter ones.
      Granted he did still do stupid shit and didn't always take the necessary precautions... Search "The Wire Splash"

The third season was projects and police again with some of the greek in there. Fourth season was the kids and police but half of the kids dads were in Barksdales crew. That's why season 5 was lackluster. They included all of the elements from the previous 4 seasons and then added the dumb media element.

When D'Angelo explains pawns he says, "They get capped quick. They be out the game early." The camera momentarily focuses on Wallace. He ended up dead because he had a heart and a conscience. Poot was the only one still alive by the time the series ended.

      That moment is meant to show the very opposite I think. She's a hard core biatch most of the time. She's a million miles from almost every other female character in the show, but right at that moment, she's just like every other girl, concerned about how pretty she looks. What's even more powerful is that Mike recognises this and allows her that moment as it will be her last.

Then without even telling you they’re doing it they show you exactly how they became who they are. They show that people don’t become who they are overnight and that it’s an accumulation of past trauma and the things they’ve had to do makes them what they are.

      L.L.C. LIVE LIKE CHRIST yea, I can appreciate that; I’ve survived some situations that I know I shouldn’t have.. but, in this show? I think it was Poot that was spared by god, if that’s your perspective; because m, if Boadie would’ve left with Poot? Poot would’ve gotten killed too.. maybe Boadie knew that, and told Poot to go, he knew his time was up.. God spared Poot, and Poot went and got a job doing better than being in the streets..
      Same with Namond, Michael was God speaking to him through those slaps to wake up & realize the streets are not for you.

Thing is your name, the more it rings out the more you are obsessed over...cops, rival dealers rival stick up crews, judges, and citizens. Normal people are the worst to know your name. The public will end you so be quite. Fuck your pride if you are going to be a dealer have a front man who everyone thinks is in charge and you stay quiet. If you are a stick up kid/crew don't show your face or say your name. Nobody can retaliate if you don't exist. In my day people were getting robbed by ghosts.

    Snoop's death still gets to me. She was one of the hardest characters in the show... and her final line was asking how her hair looked. She knew (like all of the soldiers there) growing up in the game that she could die early. Maybe she even envisioned it happening growing up (and so when this happened, it wasn't the worst way to go out and she accepted it quickly).
    But Snoop was still a human, a woman, no matter how much of a cold killer they made her out to be. Snoop finally showed a sensitive side to her, wanting to look good before dying; and it also made it seem like Michael did know more about her that wasn't shown on screen in that she was a human with emotions, and he told her she looked good without hesitation before killing her. Like man, to ask something as vulnerable as how she looked before dying just pulls on the heart string and is one of the reasons why this show was so damn good. Even the hardest gangster in the show was just doing it to get by... she wasn't a comic book villain, but rather just a human trying to survive in her world.
