How will you cope when The Wire ends?

[Replies: 62]
Better reserve a seat for me for "In Treatment." I'm gonna need some serious therapy and some drugs. I'm startin' to feel the pit in my stomach already.

well to be honest when this show ends, i will probably rewatch seaons 1-4..lol...QUESTION TO THOSE WHO HAVE DEMAND-----ARE YOU GUYS GONNA WAIT FOR EVERYONE ELSE TO GET CAUGHT UP OR YOU GONNA GO AHEAD AND CHECK OUT SUNDAY....Its going to be tough but I am going go ahead and wait......Might just watch the whole 5th season again........

:Well looks like Duke is going to be the next bubbles...

Mike I have no idea what he will be----Who do you guys think will be the next Omar though?

What happened to Cutty? What happened to bubbles nemesis? What happened with Rawls being in that gay bar?
Did Avon have to eat that 20 year sentence? Or will he have to do just 5 years for the parole violation?

Day by day it's more impossible to cope.
I feel like I'm the one who's doing dope.
Can't keep a steady hand because Im nervous
Every sunday morning im in service.

This is an excellent question...

Me...I don't really know. Watching anything else other than the Wire is a step down. The one hour that it got never seemed long enough for me. Even though we get 90 minutes for the last one there's still just too much to say.

This is one show that I will definitely miss and nothing could ever take it's place. I just hate that so many people didn't give it a chance. I had some watch one episode and try to judge it. You can't do that; you have to understand how everything unfolds beginning in Season 1 to TRULY appreciate the depth to which it has gone.

I'll have to make the last one a special event. I'm getting emotional now...:(

I'll look out the window! I live in the hood! Lol! This is the realest show I've ever seen on television. It's going to be a sad day. I watch on demand a week in advance and everytime I do my whole body is in knots. Lol! I wonder if they'll go Sex in the City on us and make a movie? Wishful thinking!

ill have to wait till Entourage comes back on--Ari is that dude. I have to catch up w/ Nip/Tuck n wait for the last season of the Shield. Finish watchin this season of the Boondocks. Then hopefully the box set of season 1-5 will come out n i can get that all in one. I like getting it that way instead a season at a time cuz its more nostalgia? i think.

its funny how i put all shows on the back seat for the wire.

damn man.i hust watched the 9th episode of this very sad season and cried for about 10 minutes. it's just so fuckin painful to watch these kids lose their whole lives over some bullshit. i really feel sick. i'm gonna miss this show so much. i can't even watch tv no ore because of this show. nothing even compares. love this show, love the cast, love every singl thing. i'm not even mad about the newspaper storyline anymore. i love every storyline and am just gonna go into convulsions when it all ends. i'll buy the 5th season dvds. maybe buy one for my aunt. i got my whole family inerested in this show. i'm 17 so me and my mom watch it every sunday together. the only two things i'll watch are there will be blood and no country for old men when they come out on dvd. other than that i ain't got shit to watch. oh well, i'll always have the dvds.

P.S. this is a list of the street characters i don't want to die:
1.michael
2.dukie
3.bubbles
4.chris
5.slim charles
