I used to love that show. I wish I could remember which season I stopped watching it so I could go back and catch up.
Did you know that Dominic west (aka Mc Nulty) is from Sheffield. He is an awesome actor. | |

He is an awesome actor. no I didn't! his accent is spot on !! well I've ordered the box sets from season 1 onwards so if you do find out let me know and I'll send them to you. The pace of the show is like reading a novel, whilst I like Prison Break and Lost as much as the next man (unless the next man is Dan) this has so much depth and great character development. | |

I had no idea either until I watched an HBO special about the creation and making of the show. The writers were Baltimore cops and other regular everyday ppl. It was really interesting to watch the behind the scenes stuff. I think I stopped getting HBO about 2 years ago so I will do some research. I think Phil might enjoy it as well. I am from Maryland and know quite a bit about Baltimore. Great show!!! I have seem Dominic West in a few movies...I am amazed that he can lose his English accent and talk Baltimorian. That is talent! | |
