I only watched the Wire because it was lauded about so much on here at the time.
I thought it was brilliant and he was definitely one of the stars on the show.
RIP Omar.

Brutal way to go. If you’re still on that gear at that age you’ve lived a harsh life at war with yourself.
Phenomenal actor, created one of the most memorable characters in TV history.

No strictly true. Heroin is ok(ish) it’s what it’s cut with that gets you.
I’m guessing his was pretty untouched.

Won’t speak for you Joe but that poor fucker was in and out of recovery. Anyone who has been on and off that wagon knows what hell is. If it gets bad enough that you try to stop, not stopping is the worse pain you will ever know.

Right up there with Boyd Crowder in Justified as being the greatest criminal characters ever.
Was well pissed off when that little cunt shot him.
RIP son, though I guess it was always going to be death in this way for him.

Goggins has got Boyd Crowder and Shane Vendrell to his name. No wonder he's go-to villain these days.

It's just a sad story. Was brilliant in The Wire. He was still very active with work and doing well, so wasn't even 'down on his luck'
RIP.

Mrs V (no link) loved The Wire, I tried watching it but gave up cos I didn't have a fucking clue what was being said. Might try it again with subtitles.
