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.
