S4 really is that spectacular

"The Wire" truly is a masterpiece. S4 was a great focus on the children and if they could fall into the depths of the streets, or rise to the prowess of education. I really couldn't believe Michael, the kid with strongest leadership abilities, would turn to a stone cold killer. Dukie, the intellectual, turning to a deprive corner boy; and Namond If you asked me at the start of this season, Namond would probably be the last one I though would make it. I think this idea plays into "The Wire" 's philosophy of earners and deservers. Moving on to Bodie's character, I thought he was the most meaningful during these last couple episodes with him. Bodie was one of the few that actually learned from the instances like Hamsterdam's entrapment, and he recognizes Marlo's disarray. So he dies like a true soldier, in a dark and gloomy shootout. Carver's arc up to this point is amazing and I love his perseverance with Randy's scenarios; yet he is still destroyed by what he has done to him and his foster mother. Without a doubt one of the best hour's of "The Wire" and pivotal for solidifying Season 4's greatness.
