I for one thought Marlo was brilliant as the bad guy and did well replacing Avon Barksdale's crew as the main villain character.
I also disagree with some people saying Season 5 was weak. Yeah, parts of it were very different to the previous series which were more "street" based (ie. the whole newspaper storyline) but I found it equally entertaining.

The newspaper scenes were the best part. In fact the only good parts.
Everything else was so over the top, and in the case of the limp, not thought out at all. If Season 5 was the first season I never would have made it past episode 4 or 5. It's not just a weak season, it's a terrible TV show by any stretch.

Totally disagree. One of the main things I disagree on this with you is about it being over the top. I don't watch TV for it to be believable. If I wanted that I'd go outside and watch life. I watch TV shows to be entertained and The Wire entertained me. Sure, the last season was definitely not the best (and possibly slightly weaker than the rest also) but it certainly wasn't terrible.
