The Wire Appreciation

Anybody seen Generation Kill (Based on the book of the same name). Written and created by the guys behind The Wire and I think it's coming to UK screens shortly. I've just watched the first episode, and I suggest you do too!

at the premiere of Brendan's (skoota) film last night, Aidan Gillen who plays Tommy Carcetti was in the foyer!
Shoulda been wearing this tee - ha

Somehow managed to miss this until about a month ago when someone lent me season 1 2 and 3 on DVD. I further more managed to mess up by not getting round to watching them until two weeks ago. Three seasons down in very quick succession and I'm desperate to watch season four which I've been told is better than 1 2 and 3 combined.
I REALLY need to watch it. Like...I'd get some copper pipes and sell them to Bubs just to get scrape together enough cash for Season 4 and 5.

Red tops. Gotcha red tops.

I am currently watching season 3, and can't get enough of it. Generation started over here on wednesday and is equally as good..

I've been told is better than 1 2 and 3 combined.

Not quite.

@sorethroat

it seems like so long ago that i watched the wire

You welcome Mania.

My mate did this screenprint a while back, it's on my wall at the moment. I love it.
I'm sure he's got a few more knocking about so if anyone wants one I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I passed on his email address.

What else does he have? That print is really good!

Wire related stuff? Not sure. We did screenprinting together at Camberwell, he's got some nice stuff.
I think he might have done a lino cut about Avon Barksdale actually

Not quite.

I've been lied to??
I better shoot someone.

Series 4 is very very good, and is most peoples favourite, I put it just behind Series 2 which I ended up watching in one session.

generation kill is good, i finished it a few weeks ago.

also, i'd like to retain the services of this guy, if anyone has a contact.
