What are your concerns or issues with this character and his subplot that instigated you into making this thread?
why did he act so weird?
Muh gym
Cause he's been 20+ years in jail
He is meant to contrast Avon.
He took a bullet in the knee
I used to be a hopper like you, but then I took a bullet to the knee!
It felt like a pointless filler that adds nothing to the story and then just ends without any resolution.
Literally starting season 5. Not in the credits. I hope he makes a cameo and we see him living a happy life with that nurse.
Or is his character from IASIP the same from the wire? Oh, fuck...
To freak me the fuck out with those Crazy Eyes every other scene.
He's on it's always sunny in Philadelphia?
You pregnant
Report unusual behavior'… 'Barricade your homes'… 'Avoid all contact with infected individuals'… 'Wait for official instructions'. HUH WAIT MY ASS.
>pointless filler
?
He's the only one who got out of the game
the kid who worked at footlocker got out
Wrong, unlike most of the other characters, he was a black man.
shit actor
Season 1: niggers
Season 2: the plight of the working man
Season 3: the struggle of the man who has paid for his crimes
To free the belt
That there are influences outside of your control that are fucking your community up but at the same time it's mostly up to the people of the community to help each other out and do productive and meaningful things and look after each other, cutty was an example of someone trying to do that.
FUCK fred johnson and FUCK tycho station
Right poot too.
He has the prison angle and is used to show the little political favors system
to fuck some dudes mom
s1 was top tier then just went to shit lol so fucking fast
>muh kids

>bunk drinks on job
>dodgies overtime paperwork
>drew gun when drunk
>mcnutty rolls over a dead guy and puts a piece of ribbon on him
>muthafuck are you crazy mcnulty ahhh na motherfucker na i'm out fuck this
I kind of saw it as a person who can apply themself and still come out doing well in the hood, althought it's insanely difficult if not impossible. Shit if he didn't get that drug money his gym wouldn't take off and he'd be either dead or back to doing crimes
>he a man today
>what if criminal decide to be good guy
let me axe you a question
>Slim go get my man fiteen large.
Probably my favorite Avon moment in the whole goddam run.
I think it’s safe to say you got your answer OP. One more thing.
Price of the brick going up.
>the game ain't in me no more
>muh turn
He was the most based dude in the series
>muh cheese

14 years in prison can fuck you up.
that jerkoff avon needed to serve 20. See how he likes it.
welcome to niggers
>not Valchek
>chill bodie chill
>yall aint know who all yall talkin to
>Valchek
He was a fucking faggot who got cornholed by the longshoremen's union.
>The union steals Valchek's surveillance van and ships it from port to port, sending him photographs from each destination.
That some can leave the cycle of crime and violence and find reform, but when they're trapped in the inner city with few opportunities out, they don't have much to do.
Hello, Bane? Yah, can you pencil me with the county exec., maybe 3, 3:30? Great. Great. Yah, have the planning commission... whoa, lotta loyalty for a non-hire temp. I'll say. Welp, first one to talk gets to stay on my campaign. Okay, lunch then. See ya.
Claim your Wirefu.
>and then just ends without any resolution.
he plowed the mother of one of the guys at his gym, seems like a pretty good ending to me.
She deserved better.
you never read a story
he's one of the few characters that escapes from the shit he was born into. only a handful of others make it (like Poot and Naymond)
The Wire likes to make the point that the game stays the same, it’s just the players that change. Meaning, people grow and evolve, but empirically that just means they step into new roles. The end sequence demonstrates this. New Bubbles, new Omar, that annoying lawyer bitch becomes a judge, etc. Just shows you that the 5 seasons we saw were just a small slice of the whole story. There was a time when Stringer and Avon were at the school just like in Season 4, the older higher-up cops were right in the shit like McNulty and Bunk. Lester Freeman is just the older version of McNulty.
Cudy was just another version of this. One of the gang members we saw take the heat at some point and get a long sentence will get out in 20 years and return. The current regime will say he’s got history. He might get back in or he might try and rise above.
I sometimes got the impression avon didnt even really respect himself. He wanted to be a gangster and nothing else but also thought it was inevitably going to end with him dying or going to prison. He almost seemed happier once he was in prison
That scene when he shows Dangelo his comatose dad made him seem extremely pessimistic about the entire thing but he also gets butthurt at Stringer for trying to be something other than a gangster
I can't tell if this is some super-obscure pasta or if you're just the dumbest person who ever lived.
>muh terrorism and corruption
His character speaks to the idea that people can change and grow past all the stupid street shit we see everyone else involved in, and that they shouldn't necessarily have to suffer indefinitely for the mistakes of their past.
"local man ruins everything", the character
