TheWireTheWireTheWire: Who is your favorite character?

[Sarah]

Don't feel bad.  I get the same kick out of seeing David Thornton, just because I snogged him once or twice when I was fourteen/fifteen.

um, you mean this guy? i guess he never got over you, Sarah.

[Sarah]

Nope, this one:



He's a second- (or third- or fourth-) string actor, perhaps better known as Mr. Cyndi Lauper.

Damn, this is tough one. Gotta go with my man Bubs, if not for the fact that he calls McNulty "McNutty", then because he was in some funny shorts a friend made: http://www.nike.com/nikelab/time_travels/index.jhtml

He also was in a short called "Big Bank Take Little Bank" which will soon be a feature (hopefully), and he plays an aspiring rapper named "Fruity Pebblez".

Oh man, I wonder if I could do some Sydnor-like undercover work and pass for a crackhead:

I'm all over that! Let's do it, Chris L!

[Chris L]

Yeah, what the hell, I'll send a photo tomorrow morning.  I see that was posted on the 17th, hopefully it's not too late.  Now that I think about it, I picture myself in a more imposing role.  Perhaps Marlo's crew will need a new enforcer...

Dorvid, maybe you should submit the photo of us with Paul F. Tompkins

I just bought the new issue of the Believer which has an interview of David Simon conducted by Nick Hornby. 

[Dorvid Barnas]

They called and asked me if I was available tomorrow!

I'm gonna be a uniformed cop!  Woo hoo!

Now the big question will you be hanging with Omar, Bunk, McNulty, or even The Greek

[Chris L]

Looks like you got in just under the wire (Ha. Ha Ha! HA HA HA HA HA!!).  The posting's been removed now.   Curse my procrasination!

Chris L. 

Call Seamus @ Pat Moran Casting -  410-558-0400
Ask him if they need any more extras for tomorrow.

Worth a shot! 

[Chris L]

Thanks, Dorvid.  I got the machine though, and calling off work tomorrow would be problematic anyway. 

There is at least one curious, out-of-date casting notice on craigslist though if anyone wants a potential story hint.   

[Dorvid Barnas]

I don't want any hints/spoilers.  In fact, even if I find myself in the middle of a McNulty funeral scene tomorrow, I'm gonna tell myself that it's either a dream sequence or one of those alternate endings shot to throw off the press. 

The costume lady called and got my measurements, but no one's given me a call time or contact number yet. I'll be pissed if this falls through - I just got a really dorky haircut for it.

[Chris L]

This was a very mild hint, pretty much just confirmation about an appearance.

I've already predicted, based on nothing, that McNulty dies this season.
