Just saw the episode. I'm feeling the love more than ever this season, especially for those slow pans over the people back at the different campaign headquarters near the end.
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

I just thought of another moment from this week's Wire that was absolutely wonderful: Ronda and Daniels joking about Lester in bed. Daniels, laughing, mocking Lester for looking over his glasses, as if to say: "I'm the daddy you never had, and I don't want to be this disappointed in you again." Yeah, that was brilliant.

"I'm just a po-lice." Lester continues to amaze, doesn't he? What a pity that fucking spicy brain got stranded at Evidence Control.

Hey, y'all, Pres made Salon this week.Love when my show gets press, but hate it, too, cause then the hooples'll start to watch and write their ignorant LTE and shit. Although I still think Simon and Co. write better women than Dickens ever did. Dickens women were always kind of fake-a-rama, imo, but the rest of the Dickens scope comparisons might stand up okay, if they didn't make me think "Yo, it was the best of fucking times...it was the worst of fucking times. You feel me?"

I'm still pissed at Albrecht about the 250 thing...the premiere brought 1,000,000 people. That the way they count in New York? Of course, not everyone will stick with it maybe...but still, dismissive much?

Eh, I don't care as long as The Wire isn't dying the sad death of Deadwood. Any thoughts on last night's episode?

Punishingly Intricate
Any thoughts on last night's episode?
It's so real this season it's almost too much to take. I had to keep reminding myself that Prez is just a character. I knew his first day would go like that. I wonder how he thought it would go?
And those kids...I see them EVERY day as I drive to work. Plus with the election stuff. it's just too much like life. Not that i'm going to stop watching.
I loved all the Randy stuff. with the shirts and the "HI! I'm Randy!" And I loved that Omar's new boy was reading a Pelacanos book. hah! I loved all the Omar stuff of course.

Written by Richard Price, too!
Even thought the humor's a bit cartoonish for The Wire, I especially loved the Omar bit before the credits. And yeah, Prez is in real trouble. I love how they caught this expression on his face that said, "why is this harder than being a cop?"
The kids, geez, that stuff's just going to keep breaking my heart.
