The Wire is awesome, British TV less so
David_Dovey:
Speaking of which, Cutty showed up in a brief cameo in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia recently! That was the cause of much double-takes among me and my girl, particularly because we had just finished S.3 a few nights earlier.
Nodaisho:
I just started watching the first episode. Holy shit, even the pre-credits scene was good. And having (a cover of) a Tom Waits song for the theme doesn't hurt.
Algernon:
Honestly, for most of the first episode I was really just trying to figure out who was who and what the fuck was going on. But then it started to click and became fantastic.
It really is a shame about many Wire alums not getting the work they deserve. Although Wendell Pierce (Bunk) and Clarke Peters (Cool Lester Smooth) have been kept in the David Simon stable for Treme. Although I honestly didn't like Peters' Big Chief Lambreaux story in Treme that much.
And re: Cutty, he didn't get too much to do in It's Always Sunny, but I did enjoy his muttering "pregnant" at Dee.
Oh, and Aidan Gillen (Carcetti) is playing Littlefinger in the HBO A Game of Thrones adaptation. Which makes me unspeakably happy.
Nodaisho:
Honestly, the rest of the episode was disappointing after that. They really nailed that first scene, but the need to do plot after that limited the rest of it.

They do a different version every season. The original is one of them... Either two or three, I can't remember. Season four's is sung by the child actors and five is sung by Steve Earle.
