I've just recently caught this for the first time. I'm hooked but by fuck I'm lost with some of the dialogue.
Was it ever shown on mainstream tv ?
 
The Wire.

I'll do what I can to help y'all. But, the game's out there, and it's play or get played. That simple.

You need to have seen it.

There are good clips on Youtube, but I don't want to spoil the scenes for the OP, and anyone else who hasn't seen it yet by posting highlighted bit clips on here.

Hang on in there and the rewards will come. You'll soon pick up the dialogue. I remember I had to watch the first few episodes a couple of times cos I was struggling to pick up what they were saying at times.

If you can manage to stick with it you will not be disappointed. Sensational television. In my opinion, the very best there is.

Will go down in Tv history as an all time classic line that (it's that little laugh before the last bit aswell) but the character 'Omar' will too ( the court scene with Levy is up there too).

When you consider the writers were never shy of killing off main characters, because, (and rightly so) that's what happens in real life 'on da street' yet they decided to change the script because Omar himself was supposed to be killed off in the 8th episode of the first series, that is a real testament to the quality of the Character and acting by Williams.

But, you need to stick with it dialogue-wise, you'll get there eventually, I'll close by saying this, I rarely watch a programme twice, I'm on my 5th time watching the series now, that's how highly I rate it.
