ok i finished! i will try and read this thread soon.
final thoughts:
-bubbles is way less annoying sober. -mcnulty, old white police guy and fat white police guy, you are terrible. i can't even be bothered to learn all your names. -lester and lt daniels are for sure my favorite characters. -omar! nooooooooo. -season preference order: 2, 1, 3, 4, 5. -season 4 made me a bit sad, it kind of reminded me of the area i teach in and sadly the life some kids i have known may grow in to. -now i see people from the wire everywhere. its like the sixth sense. -i would never live in baltimore.
yeah, see bullet right below ranking. it was a good season, it just hit too close to home in a lot of ways for me to enjoy it as much.
A close friend of mine feels the same way about season 4. He's not even a teacher, but the strong focus on the hopelessness of the kids' situations is too much for him to handle. While it obviously affects me emotionally as well, my second watch through put it above season 3 as my favorite season.

You are out of your f*cking mind. Bubbles is not "way less annoying". He's the best character through the series, and your ranking is just horrible. Say what you will about season 4, but there is no way season 3 is ranked third.
I'm a 43125 myself. 2 is just such an odd tangent it trips me up.
I think 2 ends up being the most flexible entry into the rankings. By itself, it is pretty great. Frank Sobotka is an awesome character, but, like you said, I think how it fits into the rest of the series really causes it to drop in the eyes of a lot of fans.

She's better than me. I've never seen a single episode. Is this a show worth watching?

Did you read last years headliner thread? I think that would answer the question

Like so many people who simply haven’t had time, what with their “lives” and other excuses, The Wire star Idris Elba has yet to watch The Wire, what with his being way too busy starring on The Wire. “I’ve never watched The Wire,” Elba admits in his new Playboy interview. “I’ve seen a full episode at screenings but never at home. I’ve never watched an entire season. I’ve not seen any episode of season 2, most of season 3, and none of seasons 4 and 5.”
As the interviewer admirably does not immediately interrupt with a monologue on how he could maybe see skipping season two—even if it is underrated—but that he has to watch season four, at least, it’s incredible, and man, Idris Elba, wait until you see what happens to Idris Elba’s character in season three, Elba was allowed to elaborate. “I’m supercritical of my own work,” he explains. “As an actor, if you’re being told how wonderful you are, what do you need to strive for? I don’t know if I’m good just because some critic says I am in the press… The Golden Globe award told me that, thanks. And the two Emmy nominations. Just the small things.”
Also of interest is Elba discussing his rap career (as King Driis), in which he’s presented with his lyrics like, “Dick thick like homemade butter / Show you parts of your pussy that you ain’t discovered” that prompt him to reply, “When it’s read back to me like that, I’m mortified that such trife could come out of my mind.” Still, probably not as mortifying as the coming days, as everyone he meets tells Idris Elba that he should really see The Wire, what’s wrong with you.
