while i was at the e-tv website i realised that the second season of The wire is going to be aired on the 7 of january, i'ts about time i was getting tired of watching walter Mokwena and his boring sidekicks. For those of you who didn't catch the first season it was about the on-going struggles between the Baltimore police department and the drug dealing gang run by the barksdale family it was told with both pount of views(i.e how the investigation team tries to build up their case against the dealers and how the dealers cover up their dirty dealings). for those who watched the first season you might remember how it ended with D'angelo barksdale being arrested after being caught with a large amount of drugs and after learning of his friend's murder is ready to snitch on his brother Avon Barksdale(the main druglord) but her mother convinces him to not snitch on his brother but to take the rap for his family he does what his mother says and as a he goes to jail for a long time and Avon gets arrested for minor charges Stringer Bell is left running the Barksdale empire. Daniels and Mcnulty(the cops) are assigned to nightmare jobs as punishment for disobeying their superiors. according to wikipedia the second season, along with its ongoing examination of the drug problem and its effect on the urban poor, examines the plight of the blue-collar urban working class as exemplified by stevedores (longshoremen) in the city port, as some of them get caught up in smuggling drugs and other contraband inside the containers that their port ships. In a season-long subplot, the Barksdale organization continues its drug trafficking despite Avon's imprisonment, with Stringer Bell assuming greater power.
McNulty harbors a vendetta against his former commanders for reassigning him to the marine unit. When fourteen young unidentified women are found dead in the port area, he makes a point of proving that they were murdered in his commanders' jurisdiction.Meanwhile, police Major Stan Valchek gets into a feud with stevedore union leader Frank Sobotka over competing donations to their old neighborhood church. Valchek demands a detail to investigate Sobotka. Daniels, having impressed the Major with his work on the Barksdale case, is assigned to lead the detail. i cant wait....................
