  • The singular lines play a significant role in the characters' downfall. As one commenter pointed, Avon was a little slow to realize Stringer changed and a little late to take out Marlo. Look at Omar what he said to Wee-Bey, "You come at the king you best not miss"...Omar went at Barksdale with a clean opportunity and missed. Kenard went at Omar - who was a king in the street level world - and he didn't miss. It's not a coincidence he caught him on his crown either.

  • @fsumpter Sure thing, but it's not like he didn't want to be seen or heard, chris snoop and monk protected him to hard, like in the jail scene with cheese, where he gets mad at them for not letting him know when his name was called, it's normal that he didn't do alot of dirt himself (avond did neither) but they just left him out of the process, that never happened to avon tho

  • The writing team Simon assembled was off the hook!

  • in contrast to Michael's line to Snoop right before he beats her to the punch, anticipating she was gonna kill him, so he pops her instead: "Yall taught me. Get there early". what a show

  • 0:40-0:41...Avon sometimes looks like he could be Kenard's dad.

  • @SouzaNZ nah, the dude has AIDS they mentioned it previously in the series or even in the episode i think

  • @Theghot791 brother. there father was long dead

  • @Sag3d No it doesn't. What happened with the Barksdale org was simply misfortune.

  • Damm that's real ass advice.

  • By the looks of the scar at 1:37 it seems like he got shot in the head but survived only to be left in a vegetative state. If he was dead I could carry it better, you know?

  • Great show. I like to imagine that Slim Charles is running things until Avon's 5 years it up, the king stays king.

  • The perfect television show.
