Shit aint nothing wrong with that man. I have been watching sex in the city faithfully since it first came out in 97. ITs a good show. Who wouldent want to watch white girls act a fool.I dident like the ending though. I thought it was lame who big went to paris for her. She should have gotten back with aden
Your right HBO is the shit i watch everything of theirs faithfully. OZ(before it got lame),sopranous,6 feet under ,sex in the city , the wire,and carnival
I like the wire alot becasue it gives a realistic view of the game. None of that glorized guns blazin ish. To surive you gotta have brains. Most shows portray people in the hood as dumb gun totin fools with no stratagy.

haha thats funny as hell... how classic is like... "yeah the ending of sex and the city sucked" and is talking about big & aden... what's even funnier is how i know who they are... i watch the odd episode... we get all that HBO shit late... but channel 4 is dope... it justs buys everything HBO shows... so we got OZ (Dope), Sopranos (Doper), Six Feet Under (Average to Dope), and on Channel 5 we got Real Sex (Titties)...
I want HBO!
I want HBO!
Hell yeah the wire is the shit. The only thing I didnt like is that "D" D'Angelo got killed in the joint. He should heve got out and end up testifying against Avon & String, now that would have been some drama. But Im glad Cutty decided to get out the game and go straight.

D'Angelo was weak as shit, I was reading some shit on the wire and it said he was supposed to get killed off the show by the end of the first season, but the audience liked him so they extended his part!! Stringer neeeds to kill AVON and just wholesale packages
oh naw. the drama is unfolding cuz itz slowly coming to light that stringer had d'angelo murdered in the joint. brianna ( d's mom) startin to pick up on tip's and sniff out info. And when she tell Avon somethin aint right bout the whole thing.....aw shyt. You see Avon aint waste no time to come home and start droppin bodies. But did you see that lil chic from Marlo's camp unload on dem boys and lay em down on dat corner. That was so reminiscent of New Jack City...........I'll shift my whole scedule for the wire.

Thats reckless man, if stringer bodies avon <,then what. Avons whole family is in the game. Avon has to many connections,stringer wont last a second. He is in a sticky situation.
I feel what stringers tryin to do. He is trying to go the same route as the bootlegers in the 20's and the MOB's in the 40's. He is trying to take his money and turn it into politcal power.
YOu wanna know another funny thing is that the actor who plays stringer is british. He has thick ass british accent in real life. THe dective who plays Mcnulty is scotish. That just shows how good the actors are on that show

If you look at the previews to the next show, Stringer is talking to the politician like "it's time, i'm ready". I thinks he has made almost enough money for himself he''s looking for a way out, and AVON is tryna keep it gangsta, GREED KILLS people man, he needs to listen to String and let the youngins worry about the corner and retail!!!THE WAY AVON is going he'll be locked up for a long time, STRINGER will be a city councilman or something, this story reminds me of RAYFUL EDMONDS a lil bit, here was a man making 7 million A MONTH, for like 2-3 years and he ending doing life, his mother, grandmom, and most of his family got locked up, it's a shame to make that much money and not have a way out, What the fuck are they hustling for?
MAN i TRiED To GET iNTo THAT SHiT AND i HAVE HBO oN DEMAND So i CoULD WATCH EVERY EPiSoDE RiGHT NoW iF i WANTED BUT i JUST CANT SiT THRoUGH EPiSoDES oF THAT SHiT, oR THE SoPRANoS, oR SEX AND THE CiTY For THAT MATTER.

i dunno i think avon may fuc it up for everydbody .. cuz since he been home on that gangsta shit him and marlo got beef.. now the cops know avon is bac... and they know avon is stringer's man.. it all fits togther .. avon is being dumb for not listenin to stringer... lol .. jus like sum black folk to get out of jail then go right bac in for the same shit ..damn
I do agree wit holmz, Avon does seem to be actin a lil hot-headed right now. I mean you cant be a bitch in the game they're in; Avon's a gangsta. But Stringer did have that shyt smoothed out while Avon was away.? One of dem nigguhs gone have to die b4 itz all over wit.
String better get out as soon as possible, becasue when Avon finds out that D'Angelo was killed I think all hell is going to break loose. Its all a matter of time, because his mom is already going to talk to the lawyers. Bottom line what I think is going to happen. The Barksdale empire will fall due to internal problems between String and Avon. And String will have Avon and Omar looking for his ass. And Marlo will become the new King to Baltimore when its all over. Just my opinion

yo class did you watch that other show the had bout baltimore... i think it was on the corner... that was some real ass shit too... its tight to see baltimore on tv like that and know the corners and shit were they filming...
gram green said:
Yea i used to watch the corner too. Its made by the same people as the wire. The writers are ex-baltimore police.
Yea shit is crazy here in b-more,ive only been here for and year and a half and i have seen some real shit. This is a crazy city. ALl the stuff they talk about on the wire and the corner is real. Dudes is really on that murder muder ish around here.
Whats funny is alot of stuff they say on the WIRE you have to live here to understand. When the wire first came out i was still living in florida but when i moved up here alot of shit made since. Like club music, and refernces to the towers, and East and westside.
That rivalruly between east and west really goes on and those cats hate each other. They film alot of the wire 5 minutes from my university.
There is alot of other sublte things that are said in the show that only people from here will understand. The attention to detail they put in that show is amazing.

You might be on to something, don't forget PROP Joe got his side on lock, Marlo laying low I see! He might have a lil more in his gun than AVON right now!If Avon was smart he would let String handle the real estate and businesses and if he wanna do a scarface put together a team and do that, but right now them niggas aint got no muscle!

Baltimore has been for a long time one of the top 3 cities in terms of black people murdering each other, it's a lot of ignorant shit that goes on in Baltimore and it has since the 50's!!
