Got the series for Christmas and I'm getting started on Season 2. I'm at Birds court case and Omar's interview in the court room is so sick hahaha. I rip and run. I robs drug dealers Is Omar the best character on this show? I think he is....
Such a great scene: Levy: You are amoral, are you not? You are feeding off the violence and the despair of the drug trade. You're stealing from those who themselves are stealing the lifeblood from our city. You are a parasite who leeches off-- Omar: Just like you, man. Levy: --the culture of drugs... Excuse me, what? Omar: I got the shotgun. You got the briefcase. It's all in the game, though, right?
Omar was my favorite character in the series, but there is so many strong characters in that series. I could name 15 favorites...lol
my favorite part of that dialogue ... Omar Little: That wasn't no attempt murder. Maurice 'Maury' Levy: What was it, Mr. Little? Omar Little: I shot the boy Mike-Mike in his hind parts, that all. Fixed it up so he couldn't sit right. Maurice 'Maury' Levy: Why'd you shoot Mike-Mike in his, um, hind parts, Mr. Little? Omar Little: Let's say we had a disagreement. Maurice 'Maury' Levy: A disagreement over? Omar Little: Well, you see, Mike-Mike thought he should keep that cocaine he was slingin' and the money he was makin' from slingin' it. I thought otherwise.
he's top 6 for me: * McNulty (his drunkenness and fucking anything that walks mentality are ) * Freeman's cool-as-fuck detective skills put him there * Omar being Omar * Stringer * Slim Charles * Michael
Stringer was my favorite character from the show. Omar came in 2nd. Stringer during season 3 pushed him over the top though IMO. Russell 'Stringer' Bell: Motherfucker, what is that? Sean 'Shamrock' McGinty: Robert Rules say we gotta have minutes for a meeting, right? These the minutes. Russell 'Stringer' Bell: is you taking notes on a criminal fucking conspiracy?
When I searched for the quote, I found this one too and lol'd yet again. Stringer Bell: That's good. That's like a 40-degree day. Ain't nobody got nothing to say about a 40-degree day. Fifty. Bring a smile to your face. Sixty, shit, is damn near barbecuing on that motherfucker. Go down to 20, get their bitch on. Get their blood complaining. But forty? Nobody give a fuck about 40. Nobody remember 40, and y'al is giving me way too many 40-degree days! What the fuck? Sapper: [a few minutes later when Stringer is done talking] We on that shit like a Forty Degree Day!
String Omar Avon Freeman Bunk D'Angelo Mike McNulty (I like him but he kind of irritated me after a while with his self destruction)
I'm re-watching all the seasons, and right now I'm on season 2. I'm on the 4th episode, I forgot how slow this season starts.
