That's a bit depressing.

Both Lester and Rawls have pretty major roles in s.2 of Damages.

^^ I kinda want to see that show.

It's pretty empty and silly, but very engrossing and impressively plotted. Kind of feels like Law and Order: SVU with a season-long arc.

was trying unsuccessfully to find a Nick Sobotka pic from Criminal Intent (Wire folks on Law & Order could be a whole other thread), but this one, though from a Broadway show, was too good not to post.

Frank Sobotka turns up briefly in Broken Flowers as one of the trailer trash guys who beats up Bill Murray. And he's a cop in True Blood of course.

okay, I've been watching oz - and so far: Boadie (doing lots of eye-rolling and getting forced to the ground by officers of the law), Burrell (as the gangsta turned muslim that's put to death's dad), and Avon (brief appearance as guard that smuggles a gun to the muslims)

No Reservations is billed as a travel show with an emphasis on food, and often has little to do with food.
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 28 July 2009 17:23 (fourteen years ago) link
also, just saw a few seconds of that clip...we're 2/3rds done with season 5 of the Wire and have last night's No Reservations on the DVR. Can anybody tell me if there's any spoilers in the show last night? Like does Bourdain say "Snoop, it was awesome how that spaceship came in at the end of season 5!"

nope

thats fucking hilarious Dr. Phil. Now if it's true, that really sucks that you told me, and if it's not true and you're thinking you're funny, it still sucks because I'm thinking about it. Pretty lame.
It was obvious Bunk was a ghost and season 3 was just a dream. In any case, I won't be looking at this thread again for a while.

Season 5 is when they go back in time.

they fire all the homicide detectives and replace them with a little boy who can see and talk to dead people.

McNulty is transported in the 70s and is haunted by Bowie lyrics -- is it an hallucination or is it real?

It ends with a costumed dance number featuring everyone who ever appeared in the show.

although, in a broader sense, true: you see, mcnulty has been dead all along. it's a real headfuck.

What, Snoop was born in 1980! Meaning she was 27 in season 5 of the wire.
That's almost as ridiculous as Michael K. Williams being 41 at the same time.

And check this safe sex ad starring various Wire peeps:

Seeing as he spent much of the series, "ball deep in random pussy" as Bunk put it, McNutty is hardly the most obvious person to support safe sex!

Okay, I'm part-way through season 4 of Oz and so far: Norman (Reg Cathey), Daniels, Herc, Carver, Lester, Brianna Barksdale, Bodie, Burrell, and I think one of the East Side dealers (in a flashback showing him shot at a dice game).
