like dukie said though "ain't no special dead. he just... dead."

the mix-up at the morgue kinda hammered that home as well. omar wasn't anything but a normal mope to the rest of the world. kinda goes along with the shows lessons on complex realities rather than fairytale endings. tbh he made me nervous anytime he was on screen. he was looking pretty haggard by this last episode. jumping out of a building was one thing, but walking around marlo's corners and shouting like that was another.

mcnulty is falling apart. things don't look so good for him.

Hmm I know this is the SPOILER thread but seriously couldn't you have put MASSIVE SPOILER ABOUT EPISODE 8 and then a large space beneath it?

I think I'm going to weep

Omar getting one in the back of the head is the most shocking twist in the show's history since Stringer's death.

I didnt see that coming at all.

Marlo owns Baltimore.

I think the real twist wasn't in omar catching one, but rather who did it, and how it happened.

We all probably figured at some point Omar was going to get his...but by a kid (Kenard, no less)...while in a convenience store buying cigarettes? There was no drama....no chase....no famous last words. just *bam*...and down went one of the most complex characters portrayed on television.

It kinda goes along with what Beadie was lecturing McNulty about on the front porch, in regards to his obsessions getting the better of him, and letting them run his life. In the end he'll die alone and no one will bother to show up....like Omar.

yea,
i knew something was gonna happen after omar walked past the kids with the cat in the alley, and all the other kids ran away, but one stayed.
i was like; "wasn't that the one kid from marlos crew,? now hes gonna call some muscle and omar is in trouble!"

SPOILER ALERT











I do think it's a shame how rushed this last season has been, and I suppose that's down to network pressure/poor ratings. You just get the feeling that everything that's been covered this season could have taken up at least two seasons if it was going at the old pace- perhaps then there would have been space to flesh out marlow/chris/snoop.

Still, Omar dying :o Even though I'd found out off here beforehand it was still quite a shock to watch it happen, and I thought it was brilliantly directed. It was also fitting that he was taken out in the back of the head by Kenard (brings that comment about Michael ''he's just a kid'' into focus)- after all the superman-like heroics of this season it was a sharp reminder that Omar survived to a great extent because people knew him as this unstoppable killing machine. At the same time, the fact that Omar didn't take notice of Kenard when he came in the store perhaps suggests a naivety, but also ties in with Omar's moral code. Kenard's reaction to killing Omar was also interesting- after the front he's put on in previous episodes, you'd have expected him to be cold, but after he'd done it you could see he was ''just a kid''. The final scene in the mourge was very nice too.

Still, a shame to see him go, and completely throws a spanner in the works for me, as I expected a big show down. What's left now? Presumably, the Wire. Bunk's got Chris, hasn't he, but whether or not Marlow will fall is another question.

Again, I'd have to say that too much has happened too quickly this season. For example, the newspaper has constantly been interesting but has been given so little time to develop that I don't really care what happens to it- unlike, say, at the docks (which was given a whole leisurely season to be examined). The co-op storyline was sidelined for an entire episode, and- Prop Joe's killing apart - hasn't really been played for as much as it could have been.

Carcetti is well on the way to turning into a real piece of shit. Partly he's been forced into that position by the mechanisms of power, partly you can see that self-righteousness that his campaign assistant (can't remember her name) warned him about, surfacing, and egotism.

Cheese is going to be crucial, perhaps Omar's shot from beyond the grave, but I wonder if that whole Randy/Cheese thing was just a red herring, or whether there just wasn't enough time to develop it given 10 episodes?

It's sad to know there's only two episodes left, and to know that there could easily have been 24 episodes instead of 10. Still, 54 odd hours of incredibly written, performed and directed TV to watch again and again ain't so bad.[/b]

Conclusion:

Kenard becomes the next Marlo Stansfield.

Show Ends.

Life Goes On... :|

I can't believe I found out Omar dies before watching the episode from you spoiling assholes-- :o :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:


BUT, like Corpsley pointed out, it was still shocking to watch. Insane episode.

True, everything feels a bit rushed and I have no idea how they're going to pull it all together in just two more episodes. But it's been a hell of a ride this season.

I just can't believe how hopeless all is this season compared to the others.

The message is clear as to what the writers think about the street.
