The Wire 3x09 Reaction

Lester Freamon quoting Lennon here

Hahaha, The gRandma culture in Serbia is a random by product of You guys and The Wire being a great combo.

Ain't none of y'all been on the internet long enough to know that trolls want the attention? 🤔 If everyone just ignores him he'll disappear 😅 Anyways, it's so typical that the time we get two episodes of The Wire dropped is exactly the time when I won't be able to watch for a day or two. Infuriating, as I love for these reactions. But I had to poke my head in to say hi now that you've reached the Stringer-Avon/Prez storylines. In the comments above, Damien mentioned that Lola said something during the season 1 reactions that he's waited for a long time to bring up. Once you make headway into season 4, there's definitely something Lola said (and I'm pretty sure Milena too) that is very relevant. Emotionally and socially conscious as always during the reviews. Love to see it 👌

We don't give enough credit to Wood Harris (Avon Barksdale) for his acting in this show and I LOVED how you girls pointed out his attitude change and body language shift when it comes to Stringer. Avon is very much trying to convince himself that he can still work with Stringer, a part of him will always look at Stringer and see his brother and that's why he is forcing himself to continue on, even though you can literally see and feel how uneasy it is for him. It also doesn't help that Stringer is literally undermining EVERYTHING that Avon stands for and not having a care at all while doing it just because he believes his way is better. And yet, Avon continues to have loyalty toward Stringer, that's why I will always side with Avon over String, you ladies are right, Avon is all heart and always has been. A part of me always felt that if Omar had gotten a chance to talk to Avon instead of String in the first two seasons, this beef wouldn't have lasted as long because to me Avon and Omar hold a lot of the same values, as demonstrated in this episode with the Sunday morning truce, whereas String doesn't. It sucks that in this episode String's actions gave off a negative perception of Avon because they are partners, but it's these little things and the Brother Mouzone situation that just shows that in this life, Avon is the more "honorable" for lack of a better term.

Now I feel horrible that I picked on him and laughed at him. My bud has become totally unhinged.

Man, imagine having such a sad life you get fulfillment out of spamming troll comments and starting arguments on patreon posts. Sounds like someone needs to go out and literally touch grass for a while.

Dreaming of the day Don get's banned. Every episode there's several people who consistently leave interesting comments but any discussion get's derailed before it even has a chance to start.

It's hilarious to me it still hasn't connected to y'all that the Theresa girl McNulty is dating is the campaign manager for Carcetti. And the kid who turned himself is the kid that shot the other kid in Hamsterdam. They were saying the kid shot him because he made fun of his sneakers.

Brother Mouzone, Lola's 'Ari' from Vinland Saga for this show

You guys really went off on a tangent on that body in Hamsterdam huh 😂. The kid that gave himself up was the real shooter. That’s what the discussion in the office with Stringer was about. They told Stringer that the kid shot the guy because he had laughed at his sneakers. Stringer then asked whether the shooter was important or connected to a crew and when they said no, he decided he was worth giving up to the police to keep Hamsterdam going.

Back in season one, I think it was the reaction for episode 9 or 10, Lola said that Prez is the type of person who could accidentally shoot someone. I've been waiting for this episode to post how spot on she was.
