    Bubbles is one of my favorite characters next to Omar.

      You know what? There isn't a character that I DON'T like, and that's rare. I didn't care for McNulty's Sgt at first (the laughing fat guy), but he went into serious COP mode last night at the scene of Greggs' shooting and delivered the goods as a DETECTIVE. LOVED that.

      Also loved that, when the cops raided the main stash, Herc and his partner swiped some of the cash for themselves. Good character moment and, while it was an ILLEGAL ACT, was definitely something that felt right for the characters.

      LOVING the moral ambiguities on display here.

        You've got to love the reveal of how the police response was delayed for those critical minutes.

        Because some kids flipped the street sign around.

          I want that sleazy ass lawyer that works for Barkley's crew to GET HIS before the show ends. Great character and one hell of a lawyer, but man...he needs a beat down.

            Ah yes, Levy.

            He shows up in an episode of Party Down.

            Speaking of which, if you haven't read his books. Check out George Pelecanos, he's one of the staff writers on the show.

              My second favorite character has to be Slim, and it comes from two scenes. The "we fight on that lie" scene and the very last scene he is in.

                There's a character who shows up in Season 3 that I think is underappreciated.

                  I love Prop Joe.

                  Can't wait to see how you do in Prop Joe's shop, Matt.

                    Prop Joe becomes a major player? Nice!

                      Hell yeah!

                      I'm with you that there's no character that I hate. It feels very natural. Like McNulty's sergeant.

                        Landsman cracks me the fuck up.

                        Fucking sociopath, but a teddy bear sociopath.

                        Only character I ended up wanting to punch in the face (and this is seasons later), was Herc.

                            Oh yeah. Fucking Herc.

                            I kept wanting Jack Bauer to kill him in the last season of 24.

                                I stopped watching after Kim escaped the mountainous regions of L.A.

                                I'd like to know as well.
