[The Wire] 411: A New Day, with Charles Starr

“If you were the person who put out a movie directed by Fred Durst, you would have put out a movie directed by Fred Durst.” - Charles “Sen. Lemon GoGurt” Star

In an effort to find the true reason David Simon blocked Matt on Twitter, Matt and Vince welcome writer and co-host of the City Saint Country Saint podcast, Charles Star, to talk about The Wire season four episode eleven, “New Day.”

To quote Vince’s synopsis of the episode: “The school children at Edward Tilghman Middle are all abuzz with news of a snitch, Officer Walker is about to get his, and Omar has just learned about a co-op.

Sadly, it is our friend Randy Wagstaff who has been stained with the “snitch” label, because the schools, the police, and especially Herc, failed him at every turn, which you can see or hear in the supercut Matt made of all the various bunglings of Lex murder case. 

Michael goes mask off to get revenge on a paint splattered, de-ringed Walker, inspiring this week’s Balta-B story, Omar holds a big gun while saying cool stuff, and sometimes a corner boy (Bodie) and a copper (McNutty) can be friends and it’s nice, dammit. Why can’t all the cool Baltimore guys be friends? That would be a good show too, right? Imagine Bunk and Slim Charles joining a bowling league and developing a friendly rivalry with Valchek and Snoop. We would watch that show.
