the middle guy in the back was on Bosch as his partner. I dont think he is in the spin off.

I just finished watching The Wire, for the first time, Saturday night. Omar was my favorite character and I rooted for him like we did for Tony Soprano. It seemed odd but there was such a charisma to him and Michel K. Williams was exemplary playing him.

I started watching Boardwalk Empire last night in homage to him. I had only seen the first 3 seasons in the past.

From everything I have read about him and comments from his fellow actors and friends he was the most gentle, kind and giving soul. Sadly, yes, he had demons. We all have demons but his were in the form of drug abuse he’d thought he’d beaten. Sadly, not, he is gone way too young and such a burning honest talent.

I love a quote of his:

“… I’ve come to realize that the race thing is a smoke screen. The real war is a war on class. It’s about how much green you have in your pocket. In this country, you can unfortunately literally get away with murder if you have enough political background behind you. You are innocent until you are proven poor...”

Many also do not know he was a very talented dancer and choreographer. He also gave much back to his community to help kids. He has many gifts and I am very sad for the loss of him. To be honest, as a woman, I had a big crush on him. Yeah. I did.

Here is a great little video of him dancing in his apartment. Just a cool guy and so sorry for his flaws but we all have many.

PS…Marlowe is the character from The Wire that went on to play Bosch’s partner.
