2023-07-20 22:56:00 +0000 UTC@Doug Just in case you don't know, we are changing the speed of LM's video on Vimeo and not The Wire episode.

2023-07-20 22:38:10 +0000 UTCLove that shot! How would you compare the character writing between The Wire and Breaking Bad/better call Saul? Obviously one has a larger cast with less focus on individuals

2023-07-20 15:36:04 +0000 UTCI'm always leaving it super late to comment on these posts. Anyways, the shot of Frank kicking the barbed wire fence and grabbing onto it after talking to Nicky has got to be one of my favourite tv shots in recent memory. What a phenomenal character. Reminds me of Jimmy Mc Gill even though they're very different people: they sound like simple characters on paper, but in practice they garner no much sympathy.

2023-07-20 15:35:23 +0000 UTCHey Doug, it's a bit of a browser hack. You have to right-click on the video, select "Inspect", then plug the above line of code into "Console"

2023-07-20 15:22:19 +0000 UTCI've been binging this show along with you, and also watching episodes of Avatar the Last Airbender in between as palate cleansers, so imagine my surprise when I learned from IMDB that Erik Dellums, who plays the medical examiner on this show, also did the voice of Koh the Face Stealer.

2023-07-20 01:41:15 +0000 UTCI use 0.9591. It is perfect. Never gets out of sync.

2023-07-19 23:33:57 +0000 UTCThe way everything converges to the point where Frank is walking towards The Greek in the last shot is masterful storytelling.

2023-07-19 23:28:28 +0000 UTCPosting this for selfish reasons (IYKYK) document.querySelector('video').playbackRate = 0.95904
