Kentell Williams is a young soldier on Avon's crew. He was in charge of the stash house that Omar tried to rip (when his girl got shot). When the season first started, Kentell dropped a lot of bodies, so the detail (Daniels) was tasked to take him down. When the drugs were moved to one place, they stop drpping bodies. Then that guy commonly known as Avon got out of that PLACE and wanted his corners back, police or no police, marlo or no marlo. So Kentell was assigned to do a hit on Marlo's crew, but the guys in the front were young and stupid. They didn't follow the advice of Cutty and Slim (who designed an intricate procedure on how to do a drive by), so Marlo's crew shot them first. Kentell barely got out of there by the skin of his ___. No one has seen him since.

I hope that helped and yes, I am a WIRE fan! :D

He was the short guy with the locs, who had better have a REALLY good excuse for running when Avon:mad: catches up with him.

Sidenote: Did anybody recognize Cutty in that Dr Scholl's commercial where he hit the dude and was 'gellin'?

Go here http://ad-rag.com and type gellin in the search.

You can't view the commercial but you will see a snapshot.

Tonight's show was off the hook!! Oh my goodness.....I can't believe Stringer told Avon what happened to D. My heart was beating so fast during that part I thought I was going to die....

Marlo is amazing.....I can't believe he knew that was a set up. Why was Avon even in the car?? He does love the streets too much. He should have been sitting back somewhere waiting for the word to come through.

I think the writers are going to use this as a cautionary tale of what happens to old gangsters. They either turn legit like Stringer (and still playing the game, just in a different arena) or they die and someone younger come to take their place.

I don't know if I can last 7 days......

Tonight was the episode I had been waiting for!!! I can't believe that Stringer told Avon either!!!!! I thought Avon was going to kill him. But knowing Avon, he'll get Stringer back when he least expects it!!!


I CAN NOT wait until next Sunday. I want Breana to find out so bad that Stringer had D killed - if Avon doesn't get Stringer I think Breana is going to kill him.

I think Stringer added insult to injury when he slept with D's baby mamma. That was trifling. I also thought Avon was gonna clip string, too. But I saw String on the next episode, so it looks like he will be ok.

Marlo is the truth. I know my dumb ___ would have been in the hotel waiting on that DIME to come give me what she gave Marlo in his truck. I guess that's why guys like me don't last long on the WIRE.

Now String said he killed D because he was gonna roll over. I think that is only part of the story. I think he killed D to get to his woman without guilt. Because everyone knew how D felt for that girl even when she was giving him drama.

I feel ya. If you go back to season one, when they were cooking barbq plates to celebrate D beating that murder charge, String was checking out D's girl then. I expected D's girl to get with him, because she is a "dope-dealing groupie" much like the ugly chick who always rides with the lame dude who buys the cell phone WHOLESALE. I just expected more for String. He seemed too wise to make a mistake like that.

However, in String's defense, though it was convienent, Deangelo was exremely weak and there was no way in hell he could do that time. He was already getting dusted in jail every other night. It would only be a matter of time before the pressure had gotten too him. Besides, McNulty was on his way over to the jail to check on D, and you know he would have tried to flip him again. The decision to kill D (aka Fredo) was a smart move, but sleeping with his girl was bad for business. No matter how close Avon and String are, you can never trust a man who would BACKDOOR you for your ol lady.

I want my boy CUTTY to return so bad. I know if the right person brought it out of him (like the youngster who jacked him for the G-pack), he could return to the game. Avon is looking real weak right now. He doesn't have his house under control, nor does he have a firm grip on those corners. And I don't know what made Avon (with his extra small wife beater on:D) think he was gonna man handle string one on one without a gun. Avon may be the boss, but he is not in the gym.

Oh yea, I heard Wood Harris's boy "from Paid In Full" (Don't know how to spell his name - Feifer) will be appearing on the wire...

I disagree.....Stringer got with Donette because of the old saying "keep your friends close and your enemies closer" He got with her to keep her from running her mouth, but, as we can see, she did it any way. Remember when Shamrock kept saying that Donnette was calling Stringer and he was blowing her off? When he finally called her back and she talked about McNaulty coming by he suddenly got real interested in her and now he's having dinner at her house and stuff :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Stringer ((wit his fine self!))) don't care about nothin' but the power and the money and Donnette was a means to an end to keep his secret until Avon pissed him off and he told on himself!

I like what they have done to Cutty's character. Some people do decide to get out of the game, and it going to be interesting to see how hard it is for him to do so. It kinda speaks to the precarious position that young men with no skills and and record are in when they return to their old neighbor hoods, even if they want to do right.

The Wire....
 

I just started watching this show. I had heard about it previously, but didn't know about it until I got HBO a year ago. Then someone from work said something about it and I got curious. To my surprise, HBO on Demand had every ep from the third season and I started to watch. I am now so deep in it that I can't wait until Sun night either.

I really want to watch it from the beginning because of course nothing makes sense. Anyway, Stringer is on fire. I agre about the stupid move to sleep with ole boy's girlfriend. That's dirty! Avon did look madd weak trying to strong arm String without a gun.

Anyway, I have a few questions, but I don't know any names. The big head boy with the lips that Slim put on the corner with the muscle (two big guys), why did it look like that was a set up?!
You know when the girl (who looks like a dude) was on the bike and shot at them?!

Why is Cutty's hair so nappy?!

What is the deal with that female undercover cop and that chick with the baby?! Are they together?!

Remember that I missed the first and second season, so go easy on me.

Re: The Wire....
 

You should try to get season 1. It's out on DVD now, but very expensive. Season 2 was a bit of a departure (they focused on drugs coming into the area via the docks, dock workers and prostitutes smuggled in from another country) although there were some key things that happened that tie into this season (the alliance between String and Prop Joe when Avon was in jail, D's murder for instance)

The "big head boy with the lips" is Poot (btw, check out HBO.com. There is an organization chart with all of the major players in each group with pictures and it helps a lot, although some of the minor characters (usually the ones that end up dead) are not on there). I don't think it was a set up, but that's an interesting thought....

Cutty just needs a good brush and some grease! LOL

Kema and Cheryl are lovers. Kema got shot at the end of Season 1 doing an undercover deal and she and Cheryl decided to get pregnant. Cheryl carried the child. Cheryl also made Kema promise to do something less dangerous, so for about 2 episodes Kema was on the desk, but she got pulled back out on the streets. Cheryl is pretty salty that Kema does not spend more time with the baby, but instead would rather work or go out drinking with McNaulty's nasty self.

Re: Re: The Wire....
 

He may be nasty, but THAT'S MY BOY!:D He is the reason why the Wire got started in the first place (Season 1, 2 and 3). The show wouldn't be the show without him.
Although he was too trifling for trying to halla at Kema in the hotel. When he offered to give her a massage, I said, "That damn Jimmy. Not even his partner is safe." Makes you think if Bunk was a female, he probably would have tried to take her down too.

I am wondering do any other wire fans do this, because I do:

1. Watch Sunday's show several times during the following week.

2. Check the cable guide for information on next Sunday's show the second after Midnight, because you can't see it until then.

3. Call someone on the phone immediately after the show goes off and say, "Dog, this is the best episode ever. This chit is better than Sorpranos, Oz, ...)"

Ok, maybe it's just me:rolleyes:
