40
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,039

42
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 7: first job. So just being around these guys, I'm like, yo,

43
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,160

00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 7: just getting to it.

50
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 3: You know, everybody healthy, living and breathing, you know what

51
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 3: I'm saying.

52
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's people finding new every day.

53
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: Somebody find the show in the day, so it don't

54

00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 4: Popular now some years later than it was it.

56
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 8: None of y'all knew it was going to be a

57
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 8: cultural staple.

58
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 3: I feel like.

59
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: That I ain't know that cultural statement. You know, when

60
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: you're moving around anywhere in the world though they know you,

61
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like somebody might just stop

62
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: and say, man, run them lines real quick. They quote

63
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: your lines, you know. I mean it was like, yeah,

64
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: you know, but it's like the study part of it.

65
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: Like when I first came on set, try and tell

66
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: you we was right there. We was an interesting trailer

67

Speaker 3: Yeah.

79
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: Man, Now I want to talk from the beginning of

80
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: the wire. So when y'all got the call, to do

81
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: the wire break that down when you first read the script,

82
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: and how did y'all know that y'all wanted to do it?

83
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 7: So they I initially auditioned for we Beae initially character,

84
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,480

Speaker 7: there in Baltimore and she like, YO, quote this monologue.

86
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,720

87
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 7: we got some bad and good news. She said, the

88
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 7: bad news is you didn't get the characters we maye,

89
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 7: but you was cast for the character Poop. And I

90
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,280

91
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 7: in the first season.

92
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,040

Speaker 7: Poop all five seasons last you know what I'm saying.

94
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 7: So I was just happy, you know, getting that script.

95
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 7: And throughout the years, throughout the seasons, it never said

00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 7: I was getting killed, you know.

97

Speaker 3: They didn't tell you before.

99

Speaker 4: Different?

161
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: Roots said in my back because that was my first audition,

162
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: So she said no, that was great. That was also.

163
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: I read again and then I came out and I

166
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: didn't really know. That's why I said, we don't really

167
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:30,640

Speaker 3: We have respect for each other.

198
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 10: We didn't.

199
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 1: We wasn't just completely messing up. If we would have

200
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: got had some type of scandal or something like that,

201
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: it would have caught on.

202
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 3: Like the second season.

203
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 4: Mailed me out like twice in the lobby at the precincts.

204
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 3: You know what so you know what. You know, what's

205
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 3: so crazy?

206
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 7: Social media wasn't what it is now that all the

207
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 7: stories and things getting locked up in different situations like that.

208
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 7: It wasn't video like when I was in the Just

209
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 7: think natural, Yeah, it was.

210
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 3: That is what I was never understand.

211
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: That is what I never understand about Hollywood.

212
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 11: Everything they say doesn't work always works and works in

213
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 11: historic ways. Not only was the Wire name the greatest

214
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 11: TV show the twenty first century majority black cast, and

215
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 11: you're telling me that that was that was like a

216
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 11: lot of y'all's first time even at that they.

217
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 8: Didn't know what they was doing.

218
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 4: That's shot.

219
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: That's crazy because it was like we were the largest

220
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: African American cast and thirty principal role everybody, everybody, everybody

221
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: had a main character. Crazy how you keep up with that?

222
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 8: So how does Hollywood convince people that black ship don't work?

223
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, because but behind closed doors you get

224
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: them exacts respectfully. I tell you your how y'all the

225
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: ones we get all that ship from y'all. I mean,

226
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: just to show y'all story, y'all keep letting us do it.

227
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: I said, now, how the gate keeper telling me how

228
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: did this.

229
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 10: Another thing Hollywood.

230
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: Most of the time they only want one at a time,

231
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: one or two people at a time. That's real. So

232
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,959
Speaker 1: they're gonna squeeze you in and squeeze you out if

233
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: you figure out how to make your own niche and

234
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 1: that's it. But the time they're not gonna grind it

235
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: out on fire still on five Man, it'll blow your mind.

236
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: I read for so many roles, man, my head, like

237
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: what you're doing. I'm reading, kid, I'm reading. I just

238
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: read for this. I just read for four episodes on FBI.

239
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm getting for that shoe, you

240
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: know what I mean. They can't have a good TV

241
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: show without somebody from the Wire on it. No show

242
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: out right now without somebody from Me and.

243
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,839
Speaker 7: JD did six seasons on Saintsan Centers, Bounce TV, Hulo,

244
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 7: me and JD. Okay being Meth season two and season three,

245
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 7: Me and j D. You know what I'm saying, So

246
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 7: like us being like the dynamic duo. It started on

247
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 7: the Wire together with Homeboys on the Wire. Now it's

248
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 7: I think Satan Senters. Though we were at odds, we

249
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 7: was enemies senior.

250
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: Like that.

251
00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 3: You know.

252
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 6: The script was improv though how much did y'all improv?

253
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 6: Did y'all go off script?

254
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 10: Because none of its not a lot.

255
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 4: That's how ill it was. It was all on the paper.

256
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 1: Ye can't. They don't let you do like you might

257
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: just say one word and that, but they want that

258
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: They say, cut, hey, you need your line, run them

259
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: in this line. I always said, I don't. I don't

260
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: want nobody to say, throw me my line. Facts. I

261
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: just closed the though I cut everything off of study.

262
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 1: But yeah, the ad leven, they don't really go for it.

263
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: Like respectfully, I did not say or the ad lib

264
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: or improv that Knicks line. And season one Angelot come

265
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: back and I said, he said, what you doing? I said,

266
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: on watching the Knicks? Fuck they draft up right, that's

267
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 1: exactly what we said. That's like, I wonder how they

268
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: let me in the guard and after that, But David

269
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: wrote that they would let me get away.

270
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 3: He would let me get away with a lot of stuff.

271
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: But I would test it out first, like I would

272
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: use it on one take and then if they like it,

273
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: they just say, don't do that.

274
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 10: But then most of the time they said say that

275
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 10: again'll do that.

276
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: A lot of times I used to like and that

277
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 1: was because also with the dynamic that my group, my

278
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 1: crew had, we had this fill up kind of space,

279
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. We got Andre Royal over

280
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: acting up, we got us having this communication.

281
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 10: And then we got the young boys. So it was

282
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 10: always something in it.

283
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: But but most of the time, like you said, especially

284
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 1: because we had to figure out that.

285
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 10: Be more dialect a lot of times. How was that?

286
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 3: That was hard? We ain't doing it, I'm saying.

287
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 4: So it's kind of hard for New Yorkers.

288
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: To get the action. But see, I'm from DC, just

289
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: like the the doug you know, get you know what.

290
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: DJ Baltimore will pour your neck out if they know

291
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: you faking it. You can't. You can't drag it too

292
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 1: long with it. You just gotta do it. Like like

293
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: even with New York, Like when I did Deduce, I

294
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 1: had to learn dialogue, you know. I mean we shot that,

295
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 1: We shot that in Brooklyn and then we went the

296
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: Silver Cup the Queens, so I shot that whole show.

297
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: We was back there. We did it, and it's just

298
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: like you gotta sit outside of New York to smell

299
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: it air to know what the New York would go

300
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: through to fill it. You got to get in that

301
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: into that character. So it's like, damn, it's right here,

302
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: we hear.

303
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 10: I want to get stuck with that accent.

304
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 11: I think that depends on the era of New York,

305
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 11: Super New York.

306
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: Snoop with Felicia she as years ago. She got that,

307
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: she got that Baltimore that that is in her. Oh no,

308
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: it's snoop a.

309
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 10: That y'all would have never understood.

310
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 3: Nothing like.

311
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: This brother come in see it like this?

312
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, nice like that guy. But that was so many

313
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:03,640

Speaker 4: It was fun.

315
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: That was fun, just like that they got they got

316
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:12,720

00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: to be a whole nother city. I don't even think

479
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,240

480
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,480

488
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: Right there they knew, they knew everything about Baltimore to

489
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 1: cut the alleys like you can go like whenever, you know,

490
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: the same when I killed the guy in the alley,

491
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: like you had to like clean the alley like ten times.

492
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna say no name, but one person they

493
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: want to for one person, they want to fall in

494
00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: the alley. Bro, Bro, you got it's down in But

495
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,359

496
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 1: out is all the time, So it's not. It's the

497
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 1: difference between us growing up and we from the hood,

498
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: and then you get on the hood show it's like,

499
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: it's not hard, it's not you know what I mean.

500
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: So it just was a blessing because the show saved

501
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: my life. But I don't care. Nobody said, you know,

503
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 1: and that wasn't easy. So I don't care what nobody say,

504
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: Like as much as they think it's easy for us

505
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,360
Speaker 1: to pull like as were from the Inner.

506
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 2: City or this that, it's not people, it's not easy.

Speaker 3: It was just like.

597
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 4: You know, I say what I'm saying.

00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: You say they climbed well like the people that served him,

599
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,200

00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: It was it a period, yeah, I had. I had

819
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 1: like it was a throwback that look that it was

820
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: on the musicians and to the music. Music, to the music.

821
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,399

822
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,800
Speaker 1: and then you then you don't get them rolls. And

823
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: you used to be on the jone like that. Man,

824
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, bro, they ain't picking. And then I

825
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: get into this and when we left you but baby,

826
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:17,800
Speaker 1: you're so tall. So even even like Bolwalk Empire, so

827
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: audition for dumb personally. So when Michael Kate found out that,

828
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 1: he said, Bro, Pistol, why you ain't call me? I said,

829
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: I wanted to get in the surprise, got the role.

830
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: He murdered the role the guy, and I gave him

831
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 1: a hub for the permit. I said, Bro, you killed that. Joe.

832
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:34,440

00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 1: you are dumb person. You gotta get the.

835
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 7: Man.

836
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:46,439
Speaker 4: Somebody that got on told me went out for did.

837
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he burned that role. So it's like I read

838
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 1: for stuff all the time, like and I know my

839
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: brothers know we we auditioned daily, you know what I mean.

840
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: I just had some stuff. My agent shot up mister

841
00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 1: Hodie Robinson rn A management right here in Brooklyn, you

842
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's like she sent me

843
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: stuff like and you just gotta keep It's a road.

844
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 7: It's a road that I need to manifest. Listen to

845
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 7: this thirteen years in the projects. My mentality is, what, kid,

846
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 7: you talk a good one, but you don't want it.

847
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 3: Sometimes I wonder it sometimes what you want.

848
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 8: You and J gonna do project?

849
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 1: Well, no, we have it.

850
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 7: Gave me his blessing me and haven't been talking for

851
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 7: two and a half years, and you know the press

852
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 7: is running with a TMZ and.

853
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 3: And like right now, bro, definitely like we've been talking.

854
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 7: And my thing is this like just studying everything, like

855
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 7: because the project would have to be about what made

856
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 7: them speak like this, even if we all got an

857
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 7: idea of why they recorded these records.

858
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 3: Or while they were speaking like that, It got it.

859
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 7: It has to be the backstory, the mindset of why

860
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 7: these nineteen year old brothers were we're doing this.

861
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 8: Have you read Prodigy My Infamous Life?

00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:58,800
Speaker 5: was on the couch outside.

949
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 3: I'm authentic.

950
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 1: Burn galaxies over there in my bad but I'm saying

951
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 1: that's right there. Yeah, that's my right there, because iody

952
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,320
Speaker 1: got it, and I know people forgot to see it.

953
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:25,359
Speaker 1: I'd be like, what one last question?

954
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,840
Speaker 6: So look that I forgot what season it was, But

955
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 6: remember when I think it was the male one of

956
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:32,439
Speaker 6: them congressmen. Right, It was like because you'all would stop

957
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 6: selling drugs or whatever. So he had a block designated Hamsterdam.

958
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: When that was shut.

959
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 6: Were they all people that y'all cast it or y'all

960
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 6: just were they real cra because was that like a

961
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 6: real thing?

962
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 7: There was extious but all those people lived there they did.

963
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 5: That block wasn't abandoned, No.

964
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:54,720
Speaker 4: Baltimore block.

965
00:47:57,640 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 10: Like it was like only two people living in like

966
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 10: the whole that whole block. So it was kind of empty.

967
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 1: But you know that was the truth. That was true,

968
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:10,800
Speaker 1: that you really can go right there. That's why I

969
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: said Baltimore is.

970
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 3: You don't get locked up, you don't get you know nothing,

971
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 3: You just gotta stay there.

972
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: That's a lot of money. It's a lot of money

973
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 1: in city. Don't go out there, a lot of you know,

974
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 1: you're good. It's a lot of money.

975
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 10: And it was control control crime.

976
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 11: My last question, what do people still misunderstand about the

977
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 11: Wire even after all these years.

978
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 1: That's telling me, you know that that is not a

979
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 1: black show. That's you know, that's what I think people,

980
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 1: that's it's an American show. It's about America.

981
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 3: It's just so happened. We telling the stories of mostly

982
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 3: black people. But it got layers.

983
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: It's about how the street affects the police, the police

984
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 1: affect the politicians, politicians, street education.

985
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:58,439
Speaker 4: So that's what it's about.

986
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 1: People, corn jobs coming in that show. The Wires taught

987
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:07,919
Speaker 1: you everything about what you need to know about life.

988
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 7: And like I keep saying to all other shows that

989
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 7: you see, and that's why you see cass Front the

990
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 7: wires sprinkled in all other shows.

991
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:15,280
Speaker 4: And the retrospect.

992
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: The people appreciate it because I get people all the time,

993
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: like on Cameo when I do my little shoutouts I'm

994
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 1: watching that.

995
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 4: I'm watching the show with my husband. He being patient

996
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:30,040
Speaker 4: with me. But but I don't like all this stuff

997
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,440
Speaker 4: with the politics, and and I gotta hit them with a.

998
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 1: Solas and I gotta hit them with a soliloquy like no, listen,

999
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: you gotta stay paid be patient with him because the

1000
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 1: writing comes full circle.

1001
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 4: Like I was mad I didn't watch season two at first.

1002
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,400
Speaker 4: Right now, I was like everybody else, like with the guys.

1003
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: And then if I would do it over, I would

1004
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,359
Speaker 1: have I would have traded season two for season three.

1005
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 4: I would have bought ma all ow In earlier and

1006
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:57,320
Speaker 4: the Greeks in them later.

1007
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:03,759
Speaker 1: Sorty talent, and definitely we would have raised charlm Maine

1008
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,919
Speaker 1: that we would have rightfully deserved at the time, because.

1009
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 4: If you think about it, we went on hiatus.

1010
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, people doing the show got it, never got canceled.

1011
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,280
Speaker 4: We got cast five seasons in seven years.

1012
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 1: Six years year and then they just all the different

1013
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 1: characters started coming and the show just went crazy.

1014
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 4: But you got it.

1015
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 1: It was something that was ahead of its time. So

1016
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,000
Speaker 1: when when David and them was pinning it, they was like, no,

1017
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,840
Speaker 1: this is the sequence. I know he probably knew it. Yo,

1018
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:35,759
Speaker 1: he ain't not gonna like this, but you know it'll

1019
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 1: come forth.

1020
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 3: It was the reason why.

1021
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 1: That was.

1022
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,239
Speaker 4: My my favorite season is one and four.

1033
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 1: of kids not getting hugs at home. They're only getting

1034
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 1: slugs when they walk out their building. As a little kid,

1035
