A few weeks ago, a friend of mine, Daniel Carlson, thought it'd be fun to juxtapose quotes from "The Wire" with images from "Downton Abbey." Another friend, Joanna Robinson, ran with it and posted her own of Maggie Smith from "Downton 'Motherf***ing Abbey" borrowing Omar's most famous line (the first image in this slide show). The idea got me thinking: every show should have an Omar Little. Hell, in a way, most already do. How many shows do we watch and love have a loner anti-hero who becomes the main draw of the show? It's downright eerie how natural Omar's signature lines fit in the mouths of those shows characters. Bizarre, really.
Take a look. I think you'll agree that almost every show has an Omar Little.



















“I got the gun, you got the briefcase.”
Better call Saul.
Hate to be “that guy”, but I’m almost positive it’s “and we ain’t have to torture his ass neither”.
Don “All in the game” Draper is on point, though.
I always thought it was “torch his ass”, but I really don’t know.
You’re right Heisenblerg, definitely referring to Bird torturing Brandon.
Some of those worked better than others. Loved the Tyrion one, though! Also, Michael K. Williams is STILL the Omar on every show, even when not playing Omar (in re: Boardwalk Empire and Community)
Further cementing the fact that Omar Devone Little is the greatest television character of all time. As the Bunk would say “…we all have our roles”
Michael K. Williams signed a box of Honey Nut Cheerios for me and it is the greatest thing I will ever own.
That has to be the best piece of memorabilia ever

MGS, that is outfuckingstanding.
Honestly most Omar quotes would go with most characters in Game of Thrones. Littlefinger with its dagger at Ned’s throat? “All in the Game, yo!”
“In the Game of Thrones you win or you die.” is basically a paraphrase of “You come at the king you best not miss.”
The Wolves and Puppies one could totally be said by Catelyn to either Robb (in S1) or Renly (in S2), and I’m sure we can think of more!
Actually now that I think of it, I’ve seen a single topic tumblr about this (well, with quotes from the whole Wire universe), when the first season was airing, it’s not all that great, but here it is : [asongoficeandwire.tumblr.com]
I love the Catelyn Stark finding the Lannister air scene juxtaposed with the famous “Fuck” dialogue of Bunk & McNulty.
I’m a bit surprised there were no Arrested Development mash-ups, but the Charlie one was fantastic.

Seems legit.
Using the same basic idea, I made a tumblr after Moammar Gadhafi died.

You could put Wire quotes on just about anything, and I’ll click through at least once.
What is this Wire you speak of and how does one get to F*** it’s mother?
