ALL THE KIDS ARE GONNA DIE, RIGHT? I HATE THIS SHOW.
Dying ain't the worst thing that can happen.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Man, Hec, let me hold onto my happy thoughts as long as possible.

Dukie came into my friends' store last week!
Man, Hec, let me hold onto my happy thoughts as long as possible.
awww, yeah, you're 3 seasons down with this show. You know how it is likely to go.

The show can only crush my hope if I'm allowed to have it, though! I don't need any more doom and gloom that doesn't come from the show itself.

There's hope, P-Cow. It ain't all doom and gloom by any means.

David Simon is actually eating at my regular neighborhood restaurant right now. With this guy [link]
I'm getting the news from my friend working across the street. I'm at work in another neighborhood. Otherwise I'd see if PC had any questions I could try to get answered.

Heh, I'm not sure I would have any questions besides, like, WHY IS YOUR SHOW SO CONFUSING?
And a follow-up, if I may: WHY DO YOU KEEP KILLING MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS?

Always Anti-fascist!
To say that he was unprepared for the fandom response to the Stringer thing is putting it mildly. He was all "Narrative flow," and the fans were like "Foamy! Want."Oh, Zorzi...the put-a-broom-up-my-ass guy. And I do not mean porn. I read an article about media consolidation the other day and I cou;d not stop thinking about that.

Ha! It's weird to think of Wire "fandom."

Heh. Forget the foamy: I really thought we were going to see Stringer continue to rise. That seemed to me the way the story was going (and why I thought they were going take Avon out of the picture). He wasn't completely out of the game, but it felt like he might slowly move more and more into his developing business until he finally realized that he could, in fact, be just as profitable without being a part of the drug trade. And I wanted to see that. Grah. WHAT ABOUT MY NARRATIVE FLOW, SIMON??
