I didn't like Michael at the start but was cheering for him when he killed Snoop.
The scene where He drops Dukie off and Dukie turns around and his gone was the saddest of the series for me.

It's a shock to the system for sure when you do go to America and see how bad it gets quickly once you get out of the main city area.

Las Vegas, when they say to tourists "dont go off the strip", there is a reason for that. you go 3 blocks away and its like being in another world.

Talked about his struggles on a Marc Maron podcast a few months ago while promoting Body Brokers, sad news to wake up to.

So sad. The world has lost a star.
His portrayal of Omar was all-time.

Amazing actor. I watched The Wire for the first time this year and loved every second of it.
Rest in peace.

Very sad R.I.P
Loved his performances especially in The Wire.
But also in Boardwalk Empire and The Night Of
I'm actually halfway through a rewatch of The Wire atm

This is from a couple of years ago, it's a few of his characters having a conversation
My wife and I started a rewatch last year, but had a gap of about 6 months before we watched the final season, I think because neither of us wanted it to end. The end of Omar's arc will probably sting even more now that Michael K Williams has passed.

Terrible news indeed.
For me he will forever be remembered as the (actor that played the) GOAT character of any show or movie.

Wish we shared the experience with you mate. The only thing second to watching the GOAT show is to live vicariously through someone else experiencing it for the first time.

Yeah, I saw that last night as well. It cuts off too soon though, because you can see the emotion start to well up in Michael's face just as Wendell is finishing. What an incredible thing to have said about you!
