Season 5 is hilarious with McNulty and his homeless dude


I mean the entire story he and Lester is involved in is hilarious but when he takes the homeless dude off the street and Lester is like "McNulty you're in need of serious psychological study" i lost it.

At 1st i thought McNulty was going to kill him since they needed another murder.

This story arc is without a doubt the funniest $hit on the show

It was my least favorite season like most people but it did have it's good parts. It was funny seeing Jimmy scam the BPD into paying up so they could use it for Marlo. Jimmy was the smartest man in the room for a while but it ended up costing him his job that he loved so much.

The Wire deserved a better ending than this. It wasn't an effing comedy show.

The Wire was hilarious the whole way throughout. While season 5 wasn't as good as the rest the ending/finale was great.

Least favorite season? Wow...I thought season 2 was everyone's least favorite.

I couldn't agree more!. and when Mcnulty gets the criminal profile from the FBI that describes him exactly! y girlfriend didn't get that part but I could not stop laughing.

The criminal profile from the FBI was brilliant. That was my favorite part of the season.

Season 5 is easily the most hilarious season. The part that was the most funny for me is when Mcnulty puts on this thick Baltimore accent and calls the lying reporter pretending to be the fake serial killer. The look on Templeton face when he realized who he was talking too was priceless.

"You're not killing them yourself McNulty at least assure me of that"

Bunk's utter horror when McNulty's staging the first body makes me laugh every time.
