“This is an amazing show and this one episode is quite special.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s wonderful to see clear references to The Sopranos (the u0026quot;remaining boardu0026quot; u0026quot;S THE MANu0026quot; on CC Mobile), to Tarantinou0026#39;s movies (what was the song u0026quot;Street Lifeu0026quot; playing while Jimmy selled those mobile phones? Yeah!!), to BB itself (double u0026quot;youu0026#39;re goddamn right!u0026quot; with Huell), and, last but not least, the issue with the mobile phones itselves, a signature of The Wire. All subtly and intelligently put on the screen.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDirection and screenwriters really shine on this show, which has already become one of my favorites.”
