Focusing on Omar could make a great final season.
I liked Prop Joe. I'm kind of sorry so see him gone. I need to go back and listen to the conversation Marlo had with the Greeks. I'm not sure exactly why he did it.
Marlo was so psycho at the end. Quietly taking him through steps to calm down and the way he was staring.

thats what I love about the show is that everyone on it is good even the actors you've never seen before .... Marlow looks and feels like they plucked him right from the streets and said ok ready annnnnnd action

That was wild when Marlo told the whole coop to shut the f up and he didn't want to hear their bullshit.

I hear you Randd. But it can't be worst than when I had to see Bub's trying to hang himself.

That was powerful at the end of 59 when they took Bug to live with his aunt and Duquon had to go be with the addicts. That kid has nobody. Remember his family life form season 4?
That was cool seeing the progress of the kid that Bunny took in too.

I could go on watching that show for years. It was a solid conclusion though.
What do you think Marlo walking out of that event and going out into the streets signified? That even though is is going straight he is still a thug? I'm not sure if he is going completely back to that life since he gave his connect away. Who knows.
I would have loved to have seen Omar have a more dramatic ending. Although the idea of Michael being the new Omar is interesting.
Seeing Bubbles get his life back is great but it was sad to see Duquon fall like that. He was always kind of a hopeless character with so many odds against him but also seemed to have the most potential in school.
Lester and McNulty retiring or ended their careers over the scandal they caused was a good natural conclusion to the show since they are no longer doing police work now.
