I woke up this morning thinking that Dominic West looks enough like Steve Guttenberg that perhaps The Wire was created as a gritty reboot of Police Academy, and now I can't breathe

I'm strangely intrigued by this concept

Refresh my memory, was Vega the one dating the punk bartender? It just occurred to me he was not in this season (unless I missed him when I got up for a beer)

Mimi Rogers is good too. Gets criminals off, but is really really good at it, and does it because someone has to.

Vega is the female that started working with Rhondell after Jimmy( Santiago) moved up. Jimmy was dating the bartender.

So I'm in the middle of another rewatch, and almost finished episode 10. I know what's coming up, and I'm still bothered by it; side note Rawls in episode 11 nails it.

Wallace getting dropped, although it sucked didn't bother me. Same with Bodie and D.

Throughout the course of the season he seemed to be slowly improving physically, but he's still noticeably limping when he passes the kids on his way to the store from memory.

Omar is still using the mop crutch in Episode 7 around 47:43, when he comes up on Michael, Spider, and crew, Kenard says he's "Gimpy as a motherfucker" around 48:50.

Walking down the alley as Kenard and the little ones are torturing the cat, he's limping, but he's not using the mop crutch. (Episode 8, 13:30ish,) and Omar gets got 17 minutes in, give or take in the same episode.

I have to admit, at this point I get his dirty laundry mixed up with his almost identical character’s laundry in Bosch. By the way, when is the next season?

Season 7, which is the final season on Prime drops sometime during the summer.

The gang detective Det's Bosch and Edgar talk with refers to a crime boss as a female Stringer Bell. They even have her throwing a burner phone out of a car.
