    Doing my first re-watch of The Wire in like 3-4 years. Maybe even longer. Someone on a group chat mentioned they were watching and I started getting that itch like it was a for a 1000th re-watch. Man it is still so good.

    On the season 1 finale, and god… Avon trusts implicitly that Stringer’s not being arrested along with him was crazy and it’s not even possible he was snitching. Does not even blink, there wasn’t a single fucking atom of doubt about Stringer’s loyalty.

    Season 3 Avon reads that Stringer was the one who gave him up. Which is a different kind of death. Not that it is some like super deep insight but that scene in season 1 is appreciated so much more having that knowledge now.

    It’s a new story every time.
