Tony I am a huge fan! But when I saw the DeAndre McCullough story I had to get this out. You mentioned him struggling with his addiction until his death. The part you did not add was that he became an addictions counselor working with young addicts for mountain Manor treatment facility. He felt if he could save at least one life and had that person not go through he went through it's all worth it! Unfortunately like many addicts do they get more involved with life and less involved with working in program and that usually leads to a relapse. The reason that I say this is because one of the youths that he worked with was my little brother who got hooked on dope at the age of 15 he really helps save my brother's life. I just wanted people to here this part of him. So many people do not know it. Keep it up with the Baltimore way I am a huge fan
Worldwide everybody know da wire but da corner was 1st. Still watch it till dis day. Shit was real wit no cut cards!! Charles Dutton should've won best movie. Instant classic! Salute bmore🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💯
Everybody I heard say they don’t kno da corner soon is I turn it on they kno the show lls the wire overshadowed it but the corner was poppin first an would never been the wire if the corner wasn’t popular first

Damn this brought me back to the Bruce St days. Tay, boo,RC, dinky, Dre and I forgot the other one name we all uses to run in and down Fulton Ave Monroe and Fayette
Its crazy I remember the corner , im from Brooklyn but the show was A1. I realize now DeAndre is the dude who was with Brother Muzone from the wire. OMAR hit him in the head after distracting him with the dog. R.I.P GREAT STORY
You were so right when you said alot of people don't know that lifestyle. I've always been fascinated with DeAndre story since seeing the corner as a young kid and I quickly related to it because although I'm not from Baltimore I grew up in very similar circumstances in newark nj. It's extremely hard to overcome the streets when it's all you know and the effects have destroyed your family. It's hard going through life without any positive guidance.
Had it not been for THE CORNER, I doubt THE WIRE would have developed the same gritty, unpolished apparent, but done so in a classic, modern docu-drama type way that makes viewers, outside of consciousness, feel the fourth-wall broken as fhey find themselves standing behind characters & plots either relative to their own experiences or painting such a vivid, yet borderless picture, that anyone can step onto any block depicted & begin to adopt new perspectives--questioning their own beliefs, dumbfounding assumptions and morality.
9 people just don t get the Corner. RIP DeAndre*** Ps - C Dutton s piece that opens this series is beyond powerful,and he was the perfect actor to do it
I've watched this mini series a few times. It's not on HBO but full episodes are free on RU-vid. Only place I've found it actually. I was using when it aired. I've got almost 8 yrs clean now❤
Literally…watch this series every week on my phone while at work (in a hospital) on my down time…the realness the actors…the area! I love this show but I’ve never watched the wire! Rip DeAndre! Crazy thing I was wondering how he was making out and his family! But know I know! Thank you for this update❤️
I remember so much that went on from the Corner movie in His real life... he was a great friend actually showed us how to cut school at Harlem Park... RC included who actually plays a paramedic in the actual movie... glad I saw him later in life...we was both in court but hey we were living continue to rest in God Dre... 💪🏿💯🙏🏿
The book was AMAZING! I wish peace to the struggling of Baltimore. What a hard time and place to be about getting that blast, and the gross reasons The Corner is still fully relevant today.
Unfortunately that was a time when I frequented that side being from glen burnie that's where we'd go cop. Don't know how or why I made it this far,still battalion them demands. Thanks for not let in people forget the past
Great interviewer my guy, you definitely be on point and bring videos to RU-vid that people really wanna hear keep up the good work bro I wish you nothing but super success 💯
excellent docuseries,I was so sad to hear the outcome of Deandre and his father, the struggle is real I was 20 years a slave myself to narcotics and I am now clean. Surrendering is key,, staying staying focused daily, , my grandmother always told me if you take one step he'll take two so as long as I keep my hands in God's hands, I will keep living life on life terms, fun fact I met the actor who played deandre and the supermarket in Philadelphia only think he was Godfrey avenue . I think I remember him from the movie fresh I don't even know if they made the "Corner at that time but I do I have not begun using drugs because my kids were young and they were with me and my ex also at the supermarket anyway he was a very kind and had a very warm sweet Spirit about of course that beautiful smile. He should have got an Oscar for the movie fresh he played as born to play it and he was young then, roadrson we chatted for a few minutes and you just had a sweet spirit and it's a good actorc at that time and h
The corner and the wire are the best t.v. series. Deandre McCullough was a smart, artistic, intellectual person. Im an opiate addict myself, 3 years sober. So i know what a demon it is.
Love this show I watch it a lot,they have become my friends,I at least watch 2 or 3 times a year,just feel so bad that DeAndre passed away and the others,I don't know their struggle can only imagine,just have to be a very hard life for teens who need food and clothes,not just that but just trying to stay alive day after day anyone who do not know that life can't even judge,that is a hard life for anyone young and old .
The corner was a good show. I'm from Baltimore. Waverly is where I lived back in the 70s on old York road down the street from the memorial stadium.i was on the corner of 34th and Old York road 3400 old York road where I lived
I'm from Philly, and fuck wit ya channel heavy. The corner was my shit. I was young when that used to come on. So is the guy that was with Bro. Mouzon (Lamar) the real DeAndre from "The Corner"?
love this show ! his life, is my life to a tea. even born same time the only difference im still here mid 40s still struggling RIP Deandre (black) McCullough
I remember they you to call there self the lynch mob crew dre dinky boo tay and RC we all use to play football and be on Bruce st. West Baltimore all day.
#random U never know how tuff u are till u realize how tuff you are n tonight I realized how tuff n strong I really am n now I gotta do what I gotta do. But rip to the young man.
I just watched The Corner for the first time. One of the most amazing series I have watched in my life! The Wire was amazing but The Corner just hit a little different and you really felt the authenticity and got to really feel for every character. I am glad that this series came across my recommended!
The Corner just feels more intimate and personal with the tight family focus. You care about the characters a lot more. I understand why it was important to David Simon and for audiences to do The Wire and take a more systemic view, but I would have gladly watched a full-length series version of this show
I lived in Maryland when this came out and locals would always say the corner didn’t portray Baltimore correct then The Wire came out and the rest is history
The brother is a firefighter as of 2022 when Ms Fran passed I read a story on her and Derrod was interviewed and the son Deaunte WAS IN THE DOCUSERIES AS HIS FATHER’S YOUNG SELF ( Gary was putting money in his pocket) THE YOUNG BOY YOU SEE IN THE FLASHBACKS WITH FRAN AND GARY IS DEANDRE’S SON!! Check the credits I have it on the 3 cd set 😊 RIP 🕊️TO ALL THOSE THAT LOST TO THE STRUGGLE ON MON FAY!!! I RESONATE WITH THIS STORY B/C THERES A CORNER IN EVERY CITY STATE AND AS A CHILD I WATCHED MEMBERS OF FAMILY GET WORKED BY DEM CORNERS ( NO LOVE OUT THERE) I THANK JESUS FOR EVERY LESSON LEARNED AND THE MEMORIES (GOOD & BAD)!!!
Read the book and watched the miniseries. Both were very gripping and heartbreaking. David Simon also continued to follow the lives of the various people in the book and miniseries with updates on his website that I read. I lived in the DC area and went up to Baltimore many times, and it's hard to believe the neighborhood where all this happened wasn't that many blocks away from the various locations I went to but I never did see that neighborhood. I don't know if this subject was ever addressed, but I wonder if Gary, Fran, Deandre or other people in the book and miniseries were ever compensated for the rights to their story? I'm conflicted on that - while they should have received some kind of compensation, just cutting them checks would not have made sense given their situation at the time, we all know where that money would have gone. If there could have been a trustee to administer the money and disburse it when it made sense (such as when Fran got clean, moved out to the suburbs and adopted her relatives' children), that would have been the way to go. I wonder how that all played out.
Somebody: explain to me what scenes were being remastered or shot in 2013? I was there, doing my own thing, and happened to stumble across the set while out early running errands....😅.... Sean Nelson explained they were shooting remastered scenes and asked if I wanted to be an extra/work on the set since I wasn't from the neighborhood but appeared sober and responsible enough to work.... (i refused).... And then found the show several weeks ago on RU-vid 😅 And amazed at the powerful film work and storytelling that occurred while i was right around the corner....
Yes that is a really good show and so real. I grew up in Baltimore in the 90 it was wild. I also lost my bother in 2012 to drug addiction. He od also. I moved in 1999 so i wouldn't have to raise my kids in the city. But the sad thing is that it is everywhere in the world. This world has been coming really really sad place. Drug addiction is real. You can over come it. You just have to want to. There is so much help out there just have to have the wiliness for it. 👍
In the last episode when they interviewed the real family Deandre kept licking his lips so annoyingly. He couldn't get through a sentence with sucking them soup coolers. I just saw the Corner for the 2nd time 30 years later & remembered that. I was like yuk
The Real People from the Corner were Amazing, I loved Fran. It's unfortunate they were not compensated fairly or at all?, for the Their Stories. Say Their Names❤️
