The Wire

[johnmaff36]

The Shield is great. The lady detective, think her real name is Cch Pounder, is the absolute spitting image of Bill Cosby

That WAS Bill Cosby. In a wig. Cch Pounder was his alias.

Ha ha. My missus used to absolutely crease up laughing everytime she came on the screen. She even had that lip-thing going on that Cosby does

Let's be clear here though - The Shield isn't on The Wire's level.

I'd take Freamon over Vic any day. (Not in a sexual way).

I dont know bout that. 'The Wire' is/was a great show no question, but i personally think its getting all the biggest plaudits because its still fresh in the mind to most people unlike,say, 'The Sopranoes' which IMO is the best HBO show ever. 'The Shield' is every bit as good as 'The Wire' again IMO, and can hold its own against any of the top shows in recent years. Freamons a great character but Vic Mackey has it all. After all the series ive watched, i still cant figure out if hes just a c**t, a likeable c**t or just an out-and-out c**t
