Who, me?

(I wish they'd cast someone else as this McNulty character. It's an unreasonable hatred, I know.)

Does he give you bad flashbacks to Rock Star?

Hey, here's something else interesting. Check out the second story down about the man who played the Deacon in Season Three: [link]

One of the few times I've ever seen stuff I'd laugh at reflected on TV. Honestly. That thing about the man's fighting dog and his "dawg"...too damn funny. And of course, any excuse to quote BunkN Jimmy makes me happy. But then I laugh at things most people find disturbing, like I would watch a sitcom with Landsman in it. Not that I don't find "Friends" funny, I do. But the humor that comes from me is more like the real-life Landsman asking a rookie if they found the pogo stick yet, after finding an old lady fallen from a window. The kid goes, too. A crime scene tech has to tell him there is no rogue pogo stick. Yes, McNutty would break my heart and fuck up my credit rating, but it would still be hard to stay away, anyway.

there is no rogue pogo stick

Just needed to see that again.

I have spent all morning watching "The Wire" myself, coioncidentally. A friend loaned our HBO-less asses the first season ans we are both totally in love with it. I think Dominic West is terrific as jimmy and do not fathom Nutty's hate on for him. Larry Giliard, Jr, as D'angelo is incredible. Also love the snitch, Bubbles, with a big big love.

Really? That story's in AYOTKS. Landsman hams it up, makes up a big story about how many Americans, especially in Balmer, die every year of pogo stick fatalities, and, go, fast.We need it for evidence because the streets of Charm City may not be safe. He just didn't expect the kid to actually try and find it.Funniest thing ever, esp. after the heartbreak of "Adena" Dee is really awesome and every time some one dies who isn't Bubbles? It's a relief.(well, at least that it's not Bubbles) That will be death that makes me hide with my kleenex box.

Didja know that Jay Landsman is the real-life cop upon whom Richard Beltzer's character on Homicide is based? And that the real-life Jay Landsman does not play "Jay Landsman" on The Wire, but Bunny Colvin's Deputy Major Mello?

Also, a good chunk of the cast, including West, are British actors. Which makes West's bad British accent from Season Two even funnier.

I did not know that Landsman played such a big part in the Munchkin. Not like a shocker, though.( Watching both of them is like spotting long-lost family members for me, though. What's that about?!) Total mispocheh. There may be stuff wrong with me. And I guess I won't write the next "Bridget Jones" after all.

Also, a good chunk of the cast, including West, are British actors.

This is why I can't stand West. I can tell his American accent is fake, and it's hella distracting.
