Tain - now that f*cker knows how to hold a grudge.
"My dear doctor, they'll all true."
"Even the lies?
"Especially the lies."
Is this the real Garak? The right-hand of Tain.
I love this scene when Garak explains how he loathes living on DS9. Such good character development.
First mention of The Obsidian Order.
Whenever I hear his name, I think "My name's Enabran Tain. Ask me again and I'll tell you the same."

I love these "Julian and Garak Have Lunch" scenes. Deep Space Nine always did great character moments. One of the many reasons why this still remains my favorite series.
A REBOOT of The Wire?!
Are we that old?!
Omg, we are!
Shades of #thewire @SouthPaw :
Read Danielle Sassoon’s letter explaining how Eric Adams’s counsel offered a quid pro quo, Emil Bove told the other DOJ lawyers in the room not to take notes, and then made the deal. https://static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics/documenttools/24535586a908999e/3801d435-full.pdf
If you watched the Wire (if you haven't you should go watch it) this is a "dope on the table" type of play the Trump administration is doing. Designed to appease voters more so than be effective policing.
YES many people will be affected, BUT 10x - 100x more people will see these flashy news conferences, big raids and will get scared.
No, these raids are like lightening. Big scary, flashy but not likely to strike you in particular.
ICE can at best arrest 0.2% of migrants per year!
The epically #punk subtext of David Simon is that #NancyPelosi is a child of #TheWire.

Act now to stop shameful bill sanctioning the ICC
"...the House may vote as early as tomorrow on a bill that would impose sanctions on the #ICC, a blatant act of retaliation for its decision to issue the arrest warrants. House #Republicans are prioritizing protecting #Netanyahu — a wanted war criminal — from prosecution, so much so that it is one of the first bills they are bringing in the new Congress."

So I watched the TV show #TheWire recently and found it really good, very authentic and realistic but also enjoyable to watch. The dialogues are ! Now I'm watching a more recent show and it seems so predictable, at least by contrast ("Justified " - do not recommend)
Any recommendations for something as "well done" as The Wire?
Something like Deadwood maybe? Suits or Mad Men are pretty good on that front too, but they really don't have the same authenticity.
For my $$ the single best episode in the greatest series in TV history. #TheWire https://x.com/ziggys_duck/st…
