Is Season 5 of the Wire good compared to the others?

^The Shield was friggin' awesome, can't believe you didn't like it, then again I don't agree with alot of your posts. Not dissing but you seem to have a weird taste when it comes to entertainment, not everything is real, calm the fuck down.

I didn't say anything all that bad about the Shield. In fact I was using it as an example of what realm the season 5 of the Wire would be good in. I could easily see a great 12 episode arc around Vic faking murders to get money and distributing around the station being the hero. It just didn't work in the Wire.
Everything does not have to be real with me. I like some of the silliest things. But when a show is established as this and then because that I think it's stupid, unless it's done for kicks, like Gossip Girl turning into a vampire series after the main girl gets turned into one. That would be very cool, because it would really fuck with the audience of that show.
All this being said, the rape angle of the captain was really stupid, and that dude that killed the cat. I never made it past season 4 because of that garbage.

I promise you I'm not the only person that thinks Season 5 is the best. I love journalism, so it's not surprising that I would like Season 5 considering the newspapers role in the Season.
...and sometimes nicca's just are different, and they ain't trying to be. Sometimes there's just a disconnect whether they like it or not.

Let me come right out and say, and you check my post-history when season 5 was airing; the news room scenes of that season were among the best of the series. I feel they went to far with Scott making up the serial killer, but everything up until that moment was incredible and perfect for the tone of the wire.
It's the rest of the storylines that were stupid and inconsistent and sloppy. Just ask youself this one question Infinite with regards to how well thought out that season was;
SPOILER ALERT
If Omar falls off a building and has this huge limp for the rest of the time, then why does he have no limp at all in the final scene he's in when the kid shoots him in the store? Sloppy production for a sloppy season.

Omar was based off a real life person who existed in Baltimore and robbed drug spots, and that real life person really did jump off the 6th floor of a building and only had a limp afterward. As as the weeks passed the limp went away.
