I started watching wire in 2020 because my friend told me that it is as good as it is breaking bad. I didnt believe him because for me the breaking bad is the best show in the history of television, but as i approach the end of second season i believe him now. It is the most realistic series i have ever seen. And this particular episode is amazing. But i saw this coming, that ziggy is going to do something stupid.

Let me be emphatic

Several characters react violently to oppression from others.
This is an eventful episode with some quite unforgettable character moments.
Easily the most compelling involve fairly downtrodden individuals who snap in different ways and circumstances. These incidents are brilliantly portrayed and the aftermath of the more serious of the two is also wonderfully done. That is all I can write without spoiling.
The police investigation of the port and Greek organisation ramps up its intrigue and ends on a good cliffhanger that (when I first saw the show many years ago) made me have to find out what happens next.
As ever with 'The Wire', tragedy can come in the shadow of some great comedy. There are some typically strong moments of humour involving Bunk, Freamon, Fitz, Bodie, Cheese, Daniels, and my personal favourite Brother Mouzone, who has some fantastic dialogue delivered perfectly by Michael Potts.
All actors are on great form, especially James Ransone, who is exceptionally good.
The cinematography and editing is top drawer as ever.

Greetings from Lithuania.
19th episode of The Wire Season 2 called Storm Warning was the one were things have exploted. Story was incredible, storytelling, writing, acting, editing and directing were perfect. It was unexpected in every way, and I loved it. With only two episodes left in superb season 2 I can only guess it will be amazing. At least for me but not for those people living in the world of Wire, which is more close to ours then one might think.
Overall, super season 2 just got its best episode yet, and I truly believe things are going to be even more unpredictable now. Amazing episode in every way possible.

Warning: Spoilers
Very good episode. The opening sequence was very nicely done and quite a lot happened this episode. Brother Mouzone's introduction to the show has so far been amazing. He's yet another unique character on the show who seems to be cunning and very intimidating. Ziggy has at this point proved himself to be a massive weirdo. I'm glad that he seems to be out of the picture, and it looks like his actions have really messed up the Greeks and their operation, as well as Frank and Nick. This episode definitely reminded me of just how good the acting in this show is. Now that the Greeks have completely shut down their operation, it will be interesting to see how the detail handles it. Maybe they'll offer Ziggy a reduced sentence in return for information
