Babish: "Inferior season 2"
Greeks: "This one, no hands no face"
Season 2 is incredible. It has Omar in court, McNulty undercover at the brothel, D'angelo's prison murder, Avon slaughtering inmates with the bad package, the introduction of The Greek, first appearance of Bunny Colvin, Brother Mouzone's showdown with Omar, Fuzzy Dunlop, the tragic downfalls of Ziggy and Frank.
S2 causes a huge shock as we are jolted away from the corners but its essential to understand how Baltimore is infected with drugs on every level. And the decline of the docks shows how post-industrilisation left the city's working class with no where to go, thus drugs fill people's lives.
But ultimately I'll defend S2 because the characters and plot of S2 stand alongside the best of The Wire. Inferior my arse!
@@spewter I agree season 2 is my favorite season.
I'd say its a step down, but still a lot better than a lot of TV out there. It's sort of a testament to how good The Wire is. Even its "worst" is still amazing.
@@dissipation Why would you say its a step down? What about the season made you think it was a step down?
I personally think that season 2 is great. Plus, it has Tom Waits doing the opening, so there's that.
I think season 4? 5? The newspaper "arc" seemed lacking in substance to me.
It's been a while since I seen this show, living in Baltimore, I really need to revisit this show. It's neat seeing spots that I pass by on the regular.
Hint if it's from Maryland. Old bay. We put that on everything. Pizza, ice cream, everything.
I hear some people on the eastern shore bathe in it😂😂
Old Bay’s the one everyone knows, but J.O. is the one all the crabhouses use
Whats Old Bay?
I put Old Bay on a lot of things but if I’m steaming crabs or shrimp it’s JO
@@slartybartfast4213 It's a specific spice mix
Season 2 is just misunderstood. Its actually fantastic
Yeah it’s definitely not inferior. Season 5, perhaps.
@@borismuller86 there's a lot of consistency in the types of people who think season 2 is bad, i'm not surprised that somebody as basic as babish feels this way
I think it’s 1 of the best
Yeah I agree 4 and 3 are still the best though
I gotta be honest, my first time watching the wire i thought it was an inferior season. But having re watched the show years later, I realized how crucial season 2 was at tying the whole show together, and developing important characters.
Here to pile on the season 2 support because ALL THE PIECES MATTER.
You can't say 'efficiency' without saying 'fish'.
Apoorv Padhye e fic I ency
Narco Trafficonte no it just a different pronunciation
You can, just say fis
you can say "fuck off and stop doing stupid shit like this you gremlin" without saying fish though, so I suppose I win.
*EFFISHIENCY*
One of these days you'll make an episode about how to make The Blue Meth from Breaking Bad. I'm waiting.
Ehab Shanan sugar corn syrup water blue food coloring heat it to hard crack temp and smash
John Smith that's the legal version. I'm talking about actual meth lol
Ehab Shatan , get meth, soak in blue Gatorade. Dry. Wash in acetone. That's how my crack ho mother-in-law makes it.
graphite thanks. I will try that
Ehab Shanan Try to get biodynamic organic gluten free meth and vegan acetone as your body is a temple and will thank you for the healthy alternatives.
Imagine being so hungry that you cop to like 4 additional murder charges for another sandwich.
Had to check out what a pit sandwich was after hearing Wee Bey confessed to different murders. Definitely need to try one.
I went with my kid last summer up to Chaps Pit Beef when we were in DC and yeah, I understand Wee-Bey a lot better.
he copped the extra bodies cause he already had life.
Gonna eat these sandwiches with the charges
He was already facing several life sentences why not get a sandwich for a few more
"Despite hailing from Baltimore this fish sports a semi-southern coat"
That sounds exactly like Baltimore?
people forget maryland is a southern state
Do Baltimore people really say “do” and “boo” in British accents?
Daniel Barnes exactly
@@codeinecowboy8607 ehhhh it's not exactly a British accent but it is highly unlikely original
The only people who think Baltimore is the South ain’t from there either
When are you making *The Glass of Water* from every TV show?
There must be at least one show that hasn't shown a glass of water.
T E Q N I Q U E
Actually The Simpsons would be a good opportunity to show how to make a white Pullman sandwich loaf. Ned Flanders is known for loving a slice of white bread...with a glass of water on the side for dippin'! (He could also make Nachos Flanders Style, cucumbers and cottage cheese! Or a primer on how to make wintergreen-flavored ice milk!)
Million Dollar Extreme already made it. Search for "homemade fresh tap"
Shhh its a surprise for the episode coming out April 1st.
Totally late to the upload, but I did want to note that I actually made the pit beef. I've been trying to expand what I cook, and deviate from the rut I've found ourselves in (thanks to having to budget like crazy) I found a bottom round roast on sale, and followed the recipe here. (Sans horseradish) It was life changing. Even my kids went for seconds, and one went for thirds!
So, uhm...thank you, for this. Seriously, thank you. It was a highlight of my weekend to make an amazingly tasty dish, and it didn't break our budget either. I can't explain how relieving that was, and how much it makes a difference to have a really *nice* meal like that.
Shut up no one cares about you or your stupid kids
Shiv Jethwa yeah dude, quit being such a taint sniffer
@@shivjethwa4439 Why are you being rude to this sweet old lady ??? she just showing appreciation.
@@nak-crow No u
No jew
Lifetime Baltimorean here, my only suggestion is adding salt and pepper across the entire fish box and ketchup across everything like the hot sauce as well. Also the horseradish is a reference to this white sauce that contains horseradish. For historical accuracy, ya know 😂
That Chaps Tiger Sauce
@@spartan1010101 That only goes pit beef sandwiches IMO.
@@charleswilliams4247 I like it on fries sometimes ngl
@@spartan1010101 Yeah, I can see that. Honestly, I'm liable to dip fries in anything catsup, mustard, BBQ sauce, etc. I more particular about sandwiches.
@@charleswilliams4247 I feel that
The scene where McNulty and Bodie break bread is my favorite part of the show. Great meal as always, Babish, this one hits a little harder than usual.
why? did you hate brodie??
One of the best scenes. Any like that, Mcnulty Carver and Bodie on the corner was another great one. People have jobs at the end of the day it’s very The Friends Of Eddie Coyle by George Higgins “some fellas get lucky” monologue
I feel old
My fryer's a little small so I'm gonna sort of do one after another for the sake of e-fish-ency
how do you delete other people's posts?
lmao this answer
+paul chandler hi man
Came here after hearing about Michael K Williams passing. Rest In Peace the goat
Why here?
Boy that pit beef with extra horseradish looks really good when I've got seasonal allergies
That crazy I though he said another one of them pig sandwiches 🤣
Being from Baltimore, I'm very VERY happy to see this 😁 Lake Trout, the actual takeout restaurant, is a gem here!
Gotta put OldBay on the fries too 🙌🏽
RavenLynae
Old bay is great
RavenLynae you’re black
What is old bay?
Quashaun Deberry; Yes, she is black. It's so nice you're finally learning colors little guy. Next we will learn the color of a Mexican.

You should make Garfield's lasagna
Minzork True
he can't or else the glamour will fail and he will return to his natural state of being the actual Garfield
Minzork that's just Lasagna
Put my sauce on lasagna it could make Garfield purr...
Garfield eats frozen lasagna how the fuck do you expect him to cook that?
"Kind of inferior season 2": what is this heresy?
I never got the hate for season 2. Aside from season 4, it's my personal favorite of the series.
As far as the overall narrative goes it is a very important season, but it's the least entertaining. Ziggy is fucking annoying too.
Indeed OP. Season 5 was a bit rushed to and kinda ehh to me but still good. It's at the back of the curve for The Wire. The ending...I thought it was crap when I first watched it but over time I liked it more and appreciated it.
Season 2 was the best.
Glad someone said this, S2 was my second favourite season (after S4) and Frank Sobotka was one of the best characters of the entire series for me. I don't know if it's the heavy shift from S1 that surprised people and made them initially dislike S2, with it not affecting their enjoyment of S3 onwards because after S2 they knew each season would be a different focus?
'Inferior Season 2'. And this is how you revealed yourself as a casual.
... season 2 was easily the worst season, tho?
@@OuzeDH Season 5 was easily the worst season.
@@emperornortoni2871 the newspaper storyline was garbage, but the serial killer stuff was great.
Season 2 is underrated but that season and season 5 are the two at the bottom.
@@OuzeDH I've only watched the first two seasons so far but season 2 was my favorite one so far.
Who knew forearms, tats, somtimes half a beard showing, and a nice voice could make me watch anything you put before us.
copperblaze22 I can't even eat fish and I enjoyed the fish part...
And him being a knowledgeable chef helps
Make the Teletubbies “tubby custard” I’ve always wondered what it tasted like or how it would be made. My life would be complete if you make video on the tubby custard
regular custard + LSD. done :D
asura, being of wrath LSD isn't strong enough
Tubby custard boooooooooowl
Jello made one back in the day I think
Jello brand strawberry pudding is the closest thing to tubby custard. The show used mashed potatoes and paint.
Season two is one of the best. It has a different pace but it introduces a lot of important characters.
🧢
Rest In Peace Michael K Williams.
Make Skinners patented steamed hams from the simpsons

I appreciate the “As usual, this is all Ziggy’s fault” line... shows mindful commitment to the source material, sir! Bravo!
Being from Baltimore this just had to be my favorite episode.
How, he didn't make pit beef, he made roast beef. This is so far from anything like pit beef. It's like if he said he was going to make fried chicken then just roasted it in the oven.
An upload from BWB is all i need for Christmas.
Good, cause it's all you're getting!
Johnny_Sr240 you are Easily pleased
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeit

Jesus, at least the cop got Weebay some slaw when they were out of tater salad, you just stiffed us completely on the sides!
Natty boh should've been the beer you drank. It's Baltimore in a can.
And he should've used vinegar for the fries, and not baked the pit beef. Overall, meh.
Absolute pisswater but definitely the MD college experience haha.
Nah some Tasty nectars from groove city !
Absolutely
Couldn’t agree more
“Binging with Babish has uploaded a new video”

Just made fries in this style, came out golden brown and with a texture like roasted marshmellows. Crispy on the outside, sofe on the inside, thanks for the advixe and keep up the good work!
Just got a Binging with Babish ad before a Binging with Babish video. The circle is truly complete.
I really need to stop watching your videos when I’m hungry 😩
Can you do Mom's spaghetti?
Can you do spaghetti sweater already?
Please snap back to reality. He’s not gonna do that.
Ryan C, maybe just maybe it was a joke
Only if he prefers vomit on his sweater already
AESTETHICAL Did you not realize that he was continuing the joke?
Living in southern Maryland and having old bay and blue crabs everywhere is a blessing
Used to work at a restaurant that put Old Bay as their seasoning of choice in the kitchen[Italian place, really good]. Ever sense, it's been my go-to seasoning mix for just about anything. And yea, it's AMAZING to use for *anything* fried.
My mum used to make buttered trout and trout soup. It was awesome.
cresentcube I'm hungry now
I’m from Baltimore & you forgot salt, pepper & ketchup smothered all over the fries
I came here the same thing! I was a day late!
Every season of The Wire is amazing.
I just finished the box set of this show. I hit it up yearly because it’s so damn good.
Great take on the food and I’ll respectfully disagree about season 2. I for one liked it and it set up the drug source for later seasons.
RIP Frank Sobotka. 😉
All that fuss over a window...
Bruh don't spoil the show there's still so many people that haven't watched it
@@utarian7its been almost 20 years man, if you ain't watched it yet you deserve to have it spoiled
Dude I just wanna take a moment to congratulate you on your show. There's something enchanting about the care that you put in every ingredient to make sure you get top accuracy but also quality. Some of the movies and shows you reference I'm not even familiar with, but I still watch them because I enjoy your content so much. I'm new to your channel but I'm very glad I found you. God bless
You should make Dexter’s breakfast
I love lake trout. It's amazing. There's a small shop nearby that sells fried lake trout and it's amazing dipped into hot sauce and eaten whole, bones and all.
I actually made the fish and fries part of this! It turned out delicious, and that batter is FANTASTIC with shrimp, as well!
This channel inspires me to go out and spend a ridiculous amount of money on foods to cook with...
Love cooking, and all these recipes look so simple and fun to do.
Do Big Smoke's order next
Omar Shmaitelly lmao that would be an hour long episode
isn't it literally just a bunch of numbers? he doesn't say the actual food?
urmintrude they are numbers, but a bunch of 4chan users were able to identify what each number represents as a meal
urmintrude somebody did a video about it in youtube. Would recommend seeing
A RUclipsr calles matt stonie make and eat all the order of big smoke's
Still one of the best series ever made
The pit beef here is one of my favorite dishes you've made, just behind pasta aglio e olio
Make Hawaii Five-Os kamekhonas shrimp truck
One steel frame, aluminium sheets, wood for the counter, a refrigerator, an engine, windows, industrial ovens with gas hobs on top, some kosher diesel

+Binging with Babish hi man
Damn son! You'll look like Poirot if you keep growing that moustache!
Right? It's my favorite season!
Minus the beard...
Old bay is the best thing I’ve discovered from this channel. I put it on like everything.
I can't believe it took me so long to watch this. I'm so happy that it was essentially a video on Maryland food.
Babish:"Carbs, proteins, booze"
Me:"Salmonella!"
was waiting for comment like this =)
Nah, the alcohol will kill the bacteria ... in theory.
Weak people and their weak immune systems lol
Also he didn't get Salmonella so now you know you can safely eat beef that rare. Congrats
Pasteurized eggs can't have Salmonella
*PETER GRIFFIN CAR PANINI*
Comment so more people see this lol
Yes this

QUICK! to the peterdactyl
As soon as I saw that episode I thought of this channel
I loved season 2. It might actually be my favorite season.
Rainbow and Speckled/Brook Trout are sometimes served whole or nearly whole, bones-in, and you can roll the meat off the bones and sometimes lift out the entire skeleton. But Lake Trout, which are usually larger and more salmon-sized are typically filleted and served like salmon. You can either use pliers/ heavy tweezers/ hemostat to pull the Y-bones out, or remove that slender section completely with a knife. Lake Trout Y-bones are notoriously stiff and can be dangerous to swallow or ingest.
Given the actual fish used and its similarity to other mild white fish, anyone expecting something like Haddock and then eating virtually any trout is going to be very disappointed. Trout is quite oily and rich. It's much more intensely flavoured than most white fish.
@@brendant19 Definitely a more "gamey" fish with a bit more intensity... Full-flavoured. Yum.
Why's everyone dogging on season 2? I thought it was great.
Too many white people
@@blue3870 that’s a bit racist
I think it's because it broke away from the street life and went to the docks. For many people like me, it was a completely unknown culture. I loved it, but some people may not find it as 'cool' as the streets. Plus the whole Avon plot was sidelined, and people may have been waiting for answers.
It was honestly jarring for me first when I was so invested in the Barksdale story and we're suddenly in the docks. But then I got invested in Sobotka's story 😋
Because Ziggy is just the worst
"frankly inferior season 2" u wot m8? How dare you insult one of the best seasons of the series that elevated the show above being just another cops vs criminals series
people don't give season 2 enough credit, it isn't even like they watched season 5.
Mentioning season 2 in the same breath as season 4 is frankly un-American.
Dear sir, you are incorrect. The second season was by far one of the best, in both plot and character development.
It's a show about the failures of capitalism and the institutions that are supposed to help people. Of course it's un-American.
kingofthenoobs found the communist
You always have good simple recipes. You and chef john from foodwishes are my go to guys. Keep up the good work man !!!
Having lived in Baltimore my whole life man it’s nothing like some good “Lake Trout”. Whatever the fish is we call it Lake Trout and damnit it’s Lake Trout lol. Also a good pit beef sandwich from Chaps straight up melts in your mouth and is so good. I wouldn’t put that much horseradish on it but just enough.....and now my mouth is watering gotta go.
I thought people from Baltimore don’t like pit beef from Chaps? That’s where the tourist go.
@@2jcward Not true. Those people just want to sound cool.
I used to dance at the Gold Club, which has the parking lot that Chaps is on. I ate a loooot of pit beef.
@@danielleholmberg270 Pit Beef, Pastrami, throw a couple Italian sausages on there too... mmmmmm...
Chaps? Please. Forget that east side nonsense. If you want pit beef you have to go to Pioneer.
I have to say I love your channel. I hope you had a happy holiday. Also my future in-laws got me your book for Christmas and it is amazing. This episode like the rest was great. Now I gotta go and fry some fish.
Thanks Mr. Peabody.
this is one of my favorite episodes
My father would make his home made potato fries then use a paper bag to salt them. It was fun when he put them in the bag, salted them and told us to vigorously shake the bag. R.I.P. dad.
Season 2 is highly underrated.
Max Marier I was kind of disappointed with it the first time I watched it but after seeing it two or three times now season 2 is just as good as any other season. I think it just throws people off with the change of scenery
Max Marier I hated it. Especially Mr krabs singing the intro. (Yes I know that's the original song. Still hate it tho)
I just watched the show from start to finish for the first time ever a few months ago, and season two was easily my favorite. I don't understand the hate for it.
Max Marier it wasn't bad( I'd give it a solid 8/10) but it wasn't near as good as the other seasons. One of the main points to the show is demonstrating that there are no nameless victims because everyone is a human being by making you care about the characters. Season two didn't have that at all and in many cases bored me but it still had great writing. I'd rank them 4, 3, 1, 5, 2.
I understand why it was disliked at the start as everyone thought this was a cop show, but later seasons show that this is about Baltimore, not just the police.
As a Baltimorian, I would love of you could recreate the Baltimore "Chicken Box with Salt Pepper Ketchup"
As a Baltimorean, I have never had this. Where can I get this?
thecianinator do you live in Baltimore city or county?
Live inside the beltway north of the city line, work near the inner harbor
thecianinator I would say try Stokos on York road. That's near Towson. You would ask for four wings and fries (Chicken Box) and when they ask if you want anything on it you say Salt Pepper Ketchup.
Right on! I used to order from them all the time, I'll have to dig out that menu. Thanks!
RIP Michael K. Williams
Ive watched so many of your videos these last days and I hate it. They always make me hungrier than I already am...and I cant make them so I just have to watch you make delicious food

But one of the most memorable scenes from The Wire was the crab scene.

I think he meant the ahead of its time, superior season 2.
Yeah I did not dig that
He said kind of. And also it is considered inferior to the other seasons. That still means it is better than most seasons of any other television show.

El Canal De Mayro Cool
man, I still haven't watched The Wire, i need to get on that shit.
You should, it's really fucking good. Like babish mentioned, the second season isn't all that great, but the other four are amazing especially the last two.
People seem to miss the importance and establishing factors of season 2.
It is incredibly good, and essential to what The Wire is all about.
I think people just complain because it's not what they thought they were going to get. But in hindsight, you get exactly what was needed!
MauiWowieOwie without season 2 we would not understand how so much drugs get into Baltimore or even know about The Greek and Sprios. But perhaps most importantly it sets up the fallout between Avon and Stringer.
yea..you bn sleeping too fuckin long bro. grab season 1 and get enthralled from there
If you can get through the first episode you will be hooked.
