THE WIRE prequels
December 8th, 2007 (12:26 pm)
I have not seen this mentioned on my flist, but I know there are a bunch of fans of THE WIRE here. So if you don't know, let me hip you to this: Amazon.com is hosting three "prequel" scenes for THE WIRE, in celebration of its upcoming final season.
By which I mean, you can watch yourself three new scenes from THE WIRE right now. Here are the links!
Prop Joe as a schoolkid, 1962.
Omar's first robbery, 1985.
And finally, the first meeting between Bunk and McNulty, 2000.
Yeah I found those the other day when I was checking out the dvd set prices. Pretty cool, especially the Omar one. The season 5 preview teaser says McNulty is drinking again. That kind of depresses me after the progress he made in season 4. Oh well at least he will be better at chasing the bad guys.
Yesterday while playing "Tabula Rasa" I ran across a guy named "NcNutty." Of course he's a Wire fan...
