    I think the kid's constant use of the word proposition is meant, not to show us who he is, but to show us how he earned his nickname. Even if Joe was known for making deals it seems unlikely that a dealer from the projects would earn the name "Proposition Joe" unless he frequently used that word himself. For a kid like that clearly trying to act older than he is, it makes sense that he would overuse the word as he tries to pass himself off as a young business man (as he also refers to himself).

    • @jammin023
      @jammin023 3 года назад +51

      He uses the word as an adult in the main series too, it's obviously a bit of a catchphrase for him as well as his modus operandi, but it's funny to hear him doing it as a kid.

    • @ChrisThorne19
      @ChrisThorne19 6 лет назад +98

      The Omar one wasn't stupid. It gives off a fuck load of back story that David Simon created. We had only heard of his brother "no heart" Anthony, and that one incident in particular. Other than that, nothing about Omar that we knew that went back before the show started. This shows where he got his ideas of robbing dealers. He never wanted to rob working stiffs, because they never deserved it. He knew it was so wrong that he pulled a gun on his brother to give the cash back.
      If Omar is willing to stick a gun to his own kin's head just to do the right thing, then that says everything about the man that we never would've known otherwise. He's a hood saint.

    • @weaselsdawg

      Chris You do know it though because his motives throughout the series are hurting those that have already hurt others. It's unnecessary back story which spoon feeds the viewer in a way that The Wire wouldn't. In my opinion it would take away from the strength of Omar as a character if it were a part of the main series.

      Five struggled a bit for a couple reasons. One, Ed Burns had quit at the end of season 4. Two, Season 5 didn't get as many episodes as Simon originally wanted, forcing him to drop certain scene he wanted to add in, like one where Randy was revealed to be Cheese's son.

    Wished they did one on Marlo, Chris & Snoop.. Maybe one on the Ports too, the Greeks or just the union.. Avon, his sister and Stringer- WeBey as well..
    Was the guy with Omar, No Heart Anthony?

    • @Zamolxes77
      @Zamolxes77 8 лет назад

      I thought No Heart was Omar's brother, maybe I'm mistaking. Marlo Chris and Snoop were way to young to have background stories, hell there weren't even in their 20's, ok maybe early 20's. Personally I would have preferred background stories for some of the characters that weren't so well rounded in the series.

    • @DarkSideOfTheBrightSide
      @DarkSideOfTheBrightSide 8 лет назад

      +Zamolxes77 yea No Heart Anthony was Omar's brother.. Plus a background story doesn't have to start in those timelines, I'm just saying I wanted to see more on Marlo, Chris and Snoop- like how they rose to power, I almost have a feeling that Chris was in the military too.. Snoop was just like Michael, she was just somebody he thought had potential.. Marlo's story would be nice to see due to the detectives saying he's the devil..
      But, true- it would be good to see a story about the hustlers Prop Joe was talking about as well- and the police officer that influenced Gregs- along with the reporters the news paper was speaking on..

    Would love to see the prequel to how Avon and Stringer met. Or how Wee-Bey started working for Avon & Stringer; just like how Bey's son namond said to his dad "You're always telling me how you dropped out of school in the 6th grade, run up on the corner with Avon and String..." That would be a cool prequel

    McNulty's part was the best.. Seems to fit, Prop Joe seemed off- I expected Prop Joe to have learned from the older guys that were in the game- And, he was one of those prodigy types..
    Omar didn't fit.. 80's- he wouldve been 20+ years old by that time..

      No man, Omar told in the courtcase against bird that he was 29 or some age close to that. That was is 2003. So in 1985 he would be around the age of 11.
