    I totally get you. I've been critical of Snowfall myself and think the dialog at best to be 6th grade level. But I still enjoy the series.

    This is a good one.

    Depends on what you consider minor.

    Poot?
    Landsman?

    I do love Slim Charles but was he a minor character?

    if he is minor I would have to go with Snoop.

    The Wire is a classic onto itself... I can't really think of show that takes such a realistic look at how the institutions shape our cities and society.

    Season 4 was the pinnacle for me..... focusing on politics (the mayor's race) and the schools. I went to Welch Middle School in Fondren SW of Houston.... that brought back some memories.

    Landsman was the epitome of not giving a **** until you are supposed to give a ****.

    Ha, I saw the minor character question and came to post the Slim thing, but you were faster.
    That scene felt so good.

    If Slim is considered a minor character then I’ll go with Bunk.

    Bunk is not a minor character. Maybe Slim isn't either.
