least favorite characters on the wire

[HenryGandorf]

my top 5:

1. herc. especially after his "promotion".
2. the dude that kept kicking bubbles *** and stealing his ****.
3. marlo's guy who stole cutty's welcome home package.
4. the whiney bald black dude who works at the church. he drives me crazy. i know he's one of the real life street guys, but whatever.
5. rawls. i needed five and he's never done anything for me.

 

[AtlLonghorn]

Oh he's not just one of the real life street dealers, he's the basis for Avon Barksdale.

1. Ziggy Sobotka
2. Ziggy Sobotka
3. Ziggy Sobotka
4. Ziggy Sobotka
5. De'Londa Brice (Namond's mom)

 

[UnBiased Horn]

Namond's mom was a great character though. Very convincing.

I wonder if they will ever make anything out of Rawls being at that gay bar in season 1 or 2.

Oh and Ziggy Sobotka is my #1 through #5.

 

[next2naus]

Herc is awesome. the other black cop on the major crimes detail, not Kima and not Lester.

 

[UnBiased Horn]

^^^ Yeah he's been a beotch lately.

I used to hate Carver but don't anymore.

 

[DeadHeadHorn]

I never liked Carver, but he's starting to grow on me a little.

Namond's mom is/was unlikable, but what a great character. Definitely very convincing.

I used to hate Rawls during season one, but I've warmed up to him, mainly b/c he respects the chain of command.

Spider's a little *****. Never liked that guy, but I'm glad he contributed to getting Dukie off the corner.

I never forgave Bodie or Poot for doing Wallace. Yeah, they were doing what they were told, but Wallace was such a great kid. Broke my heart when they killed him.

 

[Nuclear Bear]

The only charachter I truly couldn't stand was the white Junkie who was always with Bubbles.

Ziggy Sobotka was the most annoying character known to man, but I think its a tribute to great writing that makes you feel uncomfortable every time he is on the screen

 

[Hornin Hong Kong]

Kima's wife - i fast forward through any scene with her

 

[orange-explosion]

Rawls is a total ********, but he's exempt from any list like this for his hospital speech after Kima got shot.

 

[Endust]

ziggy and the duck, now that was some television.

I guess I just blanked out Wallace's death since I hated it.

I always found that political lady a pain in the ***. She is a ***** and plays the part well but she annoyed me. I loved when McNulty sniffs out at dinner that she was after information. He heads back to Balmur.
