I had a hard ass time believing Christopher Multisanti was shaking down that corner boy captain for a percentage on his trade. In oakland, aint no one getting that percentage, unless its an older dealer running that corner. So the idea of an outsider to the community coming in and asking for his cut is just wild to me (might just be some east coast shit i dunno)




In the first season of the Wire when Avon was kingpin, they show him rolling around with only 1-2 enforcers at best, in some scenes he's even by himself! HELL NAH cutty, no kingpin on THAT level is rollin around with anything less then a small army. Granted they seemed to understand this concept better when Marlo takes over a couple seasons later, all that muscle he has with him when he's holding court in that open area is way more believable to me.

not even walking around in the background.


Like on "Friends", how they always hung out in that coffee shop, and there were NEVER any Black people in there. You know good and damned well there would've been some Boho dude or chick on a Macbook in the corner ( prolly posting up on OKP)


I live in Chicago, and you can't go ANYWHERE without seeing us Black folks. Yet somehow in TV land, Chicago is 95% White...

once Charles Muntz was re-introduced, that he was still alive.

In the beginning Karl is like 8 years old and Charles Muntz is like 50, then when he meets him Karl is like 80 and Muntz is like 60. He looked like he aged 10-15 years over the course of 60-75 years. It bothered me so much

liked the movie and all, but #1 thing I walked out of the theatre saying was how was that guy still alive?

The Wire’s David Simon on Omar’s Spider-Man Jump
Published by Joel March 17th, 2008 in Survival, TV. Share This

If you haven’t been watching The Wire, one of the characters jumps something like three or four stories out of an apartment building and is able to hobble off. From an interview Alan Sepinwall’s blog:

Is it true that Donnie (Andrews, the inspiration for Omar) in real life jumped off a balcony the same height that Omar did?

Actually, two floors higher.

Two floors higher?

The Murphy Homes. He also jumped off the rail bridge at Poplar Grove, onto the rail bed. That was probably about three stories. And he hurt his ankle. It’s just true. Those jumps, by an athletic person, can actually be made and are made, routinely. By a non-athletic person? if I made it, I’d be all over the pavement and they’d pick me up with a spoon. If you made it, they’d pick you up with a spoon. When 28-year-old Donnie Andrews makes that jump because he has to, sometimes he makes it. It’s funny: I’m doing this thing now with recon Marines, “Generation Kill.” And some of them had no problem with the jump. They just started telling stories about recon training. I don’t know whether to believe them or not, but I do believe Donnie.

It was a story I actually used, I wrote about the first time back in 1990. That story was all through the ghetto: “They had him cornered, and motherfucker jumped off the railroad bridge and kept running. Did not want to die that day.” But we did want it to feel a little bit mythic, and “What the fuck?” because it fit with the general arc of Greek tragedy.

I don't know about you, but when i'm chilling at home I'm not wearing nice shirts, my nice jeans and have my dress shoes on. I'm in some shorts, an old t-shirt, and maybe I got some slippers on.

I've seen tv shows where the mother is walking around the house in heels.

I know that it would look weird if the characters wore their old clothes in TV shows, but I always seem to notice it.

He makes a joke about it being in a somewhat dodgy neighborhood, so it might not be too unbelievable. The job thing though... yeah, I'm with you. No employment history, no formal education, and the one website in his portfolio wasn't exactly john blaze. The dude ain't even legal!

getting knocked up by a drunken regret. him pulling her for one night isn't that much of a stretch. he had an in with the beer thing, and was able to hang out with her, and be fun enough for her to say fuck it.

the hard sell for me was her actually falling for him. never really bought it.

>If only we could have seen what Claire was rocking in the

which was pretty much in the height of the Black Love era.

So, you gotta think, they were making nice loot even though they already had 3 kids.

I'm thinking she had that big ass 1970's flip hairdo and rocked the Hillman t-shirt to bed. But she probably wore it well.



Hol' up:

now that I think about it, the Timeline on "The Cosby Show" is kinda fucked up... think about it. Sondra was a college student in 1983, which at makes her at LEAST 18 or 19, right? which means as the oldest kid, she was born in approx 1964 or so. Which ALSO means that if Cliff and Claire were out of school and established BEFORE they started having kids, they were about 26 years old or so when she was born ( I counted 4 years of graduate study even though it's probably more) that they were born in approx 1938 or so.

I don't recall them being THAT old on the show. Have they ever made references to their youth on the show? ( meaning have they ever said what decade it was when they started dating?)

So Mid-to Late 40's by the time the series began, which seems about right (Dr. Bill was born in 1937, according to Wikipedia) Claire is probably a few years younger than Cliff right?

>I don't recall them being THAT old on the show. Have they ever
>made references to their youth on the show? ( meaning have
>they ever said what decade it was when they started dating?)

I'm sure they did at some point indirectly (maybe a song they liked or a movie they saw?) though I can't recall anything specific. They really only ever made fun of how OLD Cliff was. Still seemed like he was too young to be liking jazz music that much though.

PS I'm really mad about there not begin a Cosbypedia or something like that. Sometimes the internet just obsesses over the wrong things.

"yes, sometimes my rhymes are sexist, but you lovely bitches and hos should know i'm tryin to correct it"- hiphopopotamus

in hip hop battle scenes be it breakdancing, rhyming, scratching....

in real life the only girls showing up are already going out with a participant/bystander

If you ever notice, on TV or movies, during a phone convo, people never say bye, or goodbye.

It's always, "Yeah....ok....yeah, ok yeah"

(Hangs up)

I pointed this out to my boy some years ago, and he was blown away lol

Another BS phone thing on TV and movies...

It takes people forever to answer it.

(Phones rings)

After like the 3rd ring, the person rustles around and wakes up...

4th ring, they slowly role over...

5th ring...they check their watch and squint.

6th ring...they throw their head back like "Ugh!", and kinda wipe their eye or face...

7th ring...they reach for the phone...

(Pick up)

3 second pause...

"Yeah...?"

Wtf?

No one EVER just hangs up, or no machine ever picks up.

The point of seson three was that when Avon got out of jail, all of his muscle was dead/locked up/incompetent. Slim Charles was his only legit shooter until Cutty showed up, and even his heart wasn't in it. Plus, by the end of the season, he was rolling deep everywhere.
