welcome to my "Nik Rewatches #TheWire and Fanboys over @AoDespair" thread. "The Target" thru "-30-", as long as it takes. Up thru S1 Ep 3 so far- the chess lesson w D'Angelo, Wallace and Bodie is a masterclass in writing and acting and I don't care who knows it. @HBO

Still S1Ep3- the look @clarkepeters gives the kid when he tries to sell him "blues"- devastating. @HBO

Still S1Ep3- so much of this episode, nay this show, is about the idea of "suction". who owes you a favor, who you owe. when a society runs on having someone in your pocket, it behooves you to do what you need to do to keep em there. @HBO

Still S1Ep3- McNulty and Rhonda... good GOD McNulty is a prick. #fuckdidido
