I watched it again last night (while burning a copy for Ms. Jahneke, which will go in the mail tomorrow), and that scene is just a killer, all the way through. In fact, I'll go ahead and say that every scene in the episode is a killer, but that one in particular is breathtaking.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

You'll get no argument from me. Top form.

I just watched the second to last Wire On Demand.
Dude. Dude! I was gonna white-font some reaction, but I don't think I will even do that. Too much.
The finale is gonna have to be extra extra long to hold everything that's going down.

Punishingly Intricate
I saw that they won't be showing the finale on OnDemand so as to control the spoiler tide as much as possible.

Oh, I didn't know that. I was already starting to debate whether I wanted to watch it early, might be a good thing to have the choice taken out of my hands.

So Daniel Cerone has left Dexter to run Dirty Sexy Money. I'm very concerned.

I think that was the best episode of the Wire yet. I'm still processing the awesomeness of the first 10 - 15 minutes, and it's not like there was any awesomeness to spare afterwards.
