This was one of the best season opening scenes in TV history.

A simpler time, when hardware store employees actually knew their shit
(I say as someone who definitely does not know his shit)

The season starts off with Snoop being schooled about nail guns. The season itself is about school and being schooled. The show is such a masterpiece. Incredible symbolism, foreshadowing, dialogue.

Maybe the best product placement I’ve ever seen.

The Wire is in my big “top 3” along with Mad Men and The Sopranos. Oddly enough what sticks out to me the most in rewatches of The Wire is the clothing. Specifically season 1 with D. Takes me right back to being in high school in the early 00s. And when I rewatch the Sopranos it’s the food that sticks with me. And Mad Men it’s the furnishings.
A sign of high quality television is the ability to turn inanimate background objects into secondary characters. Mad Men with the episode about Coopers new painting or Betty’s new couch. (Furnishings). The Sopranos scenes about Karen’s last Ziti or the dozen other scenes about Carmellas cooking and Tony’s addiction to deli meats.(Food) Then you got the scene of D in The Wire who changes his outfit 2 or 3 times to make sure it fits the right vibe for his day of slinging drugs and running the towers in Baltimore. (Clothing)

Made me remember that id forgotten some really great parts of the show. Snoop is a monster, but, if you ignore all the murder, an entirely enjoyable character.

Years ago, I played this for my girlfriend and she said ” I didn’t understand a single thing that guy said”. I corrected her about Snoop being a woman and she was even more confused.

I still think about this scene and the chess lesson. Some of the best TV I’ve ever seen.
