Actor Lance Reddick, who played Lt. Cedric Daniels on HBO's gritty, much-beloved TV series The Wire, talks about what that show meant to him. For more George visit: www.strombo.com
Watched The Wire in 2020 for the first time. episode after episode, season after season. Perhaps this way I could have truly immerge myself into streets of B. And had so much intensive experience watching it.
Check out the Amazon Prime series Bosch. In it Reddick plays a police chief with a lot of characteristics to those of Cedric Daniels but at the same time is geared to this series (Bosch). As in The Wire, his Bosch character is an essential component of a well-crafted series. Great actor.
@@CharlesMugenn there's 4, I was wrong. The muscle stringer is with in the property redevelopment when Omar and Brother Mouzone. My point was that Omar is not depicted in any way shape or form as a "killer". I think he only ever shoots one person on any of his drug rip and runs...
Nothing like the wire glad they were able to get all the seasons out and it touched on everything that happens in a lot of communities in the inner city around the Us and they casted real people with real stories from the city they taped in which was awesome
Aw geez I remember George Stroumbouloumpouloumbouloumpoulous on TV when we had less than 10 channels. Poor CBC, they tried so hard to provide entertainment for us with only meager results.
I'm thinking how individual scenes in the wire are as powerful as whole movies by themselves. The writing! Actors aren't thinking about race, they're thinking about that golden script. Once in a lifetime and it falls in his lap.
Yeah - I rated this as the best television I ever watched until the first season, and only the first, of True Detective. Now after some distance from them, Season 1 of both being the best tv drama ever.
regulator619 yeah season 5 is a masterpiece of TV! The reason for me is I relate to the characters on The Wire a lot more (maybe because there was too many). Walter was a flat out villain, Jesse was an idiot, but I love Hank and Mike :)
The interviewer just couldn't resist injecting race into the interview. The Wire can't just be a brilliant show with an amazing cast. Everything has to be about race smh
It's definitely funny but it is interesting that if a white man said this about black women in this type of venue he'd he called a racist no doubt. Society in 2021 is topsy turvy.
