R.I.P. to David Mills screenwriter for The Wires, NYPD blue, Homicide and The Corners

[laevy]

David Mills was a badass writer. Not too many can write raw and real TV characters like he could.

Also, was Brad Pitt's character in Se7en named after him or is it just a coincidence?

Bump for an awesome show!

Just finished watching the series in 2 weeks. Great plot line and characters.

Serious and light at the same time. Best parts are when they're drunk,

Favorite characters are Beadie and Lester.

"Deserve got nuthin' to do with it." - Snoop (I thought she was a he for most of the show.)

Some of the Wire cast is on David Simon's new show called Treme. Bunk and Lester are regulars on it with others like Slim Charles, Waylon, etc.

Amazing show. Watch Generation Kill too if you are a fan.

just finished watching this... i'm so dissapointed... ****ing marlo gets to walk off with all his money? I hated him and his entire crew from the start..

I wish Bodie and Poot got more screen time, they should have developed those characters more seeing as how they were there from season 1

That's life. It ain't pretty.

As far as Bodie and Poot, they focused on them as long as they needed to.

They were bottom of the chain kinda guys, and after all their work, they got nowhere.

The Wire had the best "names" for characters ever. No show will beat it.

Slim Charles, Bodie, Poot, Wallace, Marlow, Avon Barksdale, Stringer Bell, McNulty, Cheese, Bunk, Bubs, etc.

So great.

[Mugen123]

I liked Avon more then Stringer, he had more heart.. giving $15,000 to Cutty so he could build a gym for the kids.. as for the cops, Bunk and Greggs were my favs

that scene when Bodie and Poot killed Wallace was really deep, prolly my fav of the entire series

yeah I understand that, and wouldn't change their roles, I mean I wish they showed a little more of what there day to day was like, I really felt for Bodie, he was 100% loyal and a hard worker, and was left alone on the corner with no back up, his death was one of my fav scenes too

I literally cried.
