Gutted to hear about the passing of Lance Reddick aka “Daniels” in
#TheWire
Daniels was such a formidable and respected character in the show and was played by a formidable and respected actor.
He was gracious and kind with his time when we spoke with him. Rest in Power
We’re all going to Kavanaugh’s to celebrate the life of Cedric Daniels.
Landsman is giving the eulogy of course. We all know the song.
Which of Daniels scenes/ stories are you going to recount in your speech

#DanielsTheWire
“…than let the world see you work a shovel.”
Burrell tries to get Daniels to tow the line, and Daniels calls him out. Things erupt after Daniels starts “following the money”, which has ties to some of Burrell’s pals in higher places.
I give myself a high five every time I watch Slim Charles say that line.
What just happened here and what do you think of Slim?

“You need to find a new home.”
Head to head between Daniels and McNulty was always electrifying. Here Daniels discovers that McNulty went behind his back to have the target of the major crimes unit changed to Stringer Bell. And it’s here that Daniels loses his trust in McNulty.
When Dukie smiles in this scene after simply switching on the computer 🖥️ it makes our hearts melt.
Where do you think he’d be right now if he’d simply had someone at home to take care of him?

We’re saddened to hear about the passing of Al “Stanislaus Valchek”. It was always great to see him on screen.
Let’s celebrate his life.
#What
was your favourite Valchek moment from
#TheWire
?
“So, this is your last case. Work it.”
Daniels and Rawls team up to reprimand McNulty on his Season 5 nonsense. Rawls do most of the talking, but Daniels shows his anger in his posture and eyes. It feels like Daniels could shoot laser beams from his eyes through McNulty.
Most people know him as Gus in Season 5. But he’s a more fundamental part of The Wire than most people know.
What else did Clark Johnson do in the show?

But there was a time where Daniels went to bat for McNulty, like in Season 2 when he begged Rawls to pull the detective off of boat patrol to work a major crimes case.

Ok! We showed you the picture of Scott last week. We know you’re not a fans of his. Here’s Gus. What are your thoughts about him?

“Detective. My office.”
It’s less about what Daniels says in this scene, and much more about his reacting to watching Prez clock his father-in-law, Major Stan Valchek, If you look up “The Wire” on GIPHY, you’ll see this short clip where Daniels’ eyes nearly pop out of his head.
Here’s the Hat 🎩 Trick used in season 1. Did you know that Bodie is the only character in season 1 that gets the red had but doesn’t end up in jail or dead by the end of the season?

how ace is this?
We know who made this but don’t want them to get in trouble with Hasbro as it was made just for fun.
Raise your hand 🙋♀️ if you want one!
This is Delaney Wiliams who played the character Jay Landsman who was based on a real person.
Do you know the character the REAL Jay Landsman played when he joined the show as an actor?
