A graphic example of why Avon was still free. Avoided drugs, drank in moderation, had his head in the game 24/7.
Shame he started slamming in the war with marlo but stopped again
@@nonofyourbuzyness2824 It wasn't even the war that got him, it was his second in command, Stringer, the guy he had complete trust in in the beginning of the series, that betrayed him, only because his own ego got hurt from Clay Davis robbing him blind. Stringer was from the street, but his heart wasn't in the game, and wanted to be more ambitious.
Yeah stringer didn’t want to be a bum like the rest of them.
He was a golden glove champion. That's where his discipline came from.
@@BennyNegroFromQueens Many athletes are bums
The way Daniels eyes light up with surprise and awe when he finally sees Avon. Priceless
The most bad-ass finger wave since the T-1000.

This and Babu Bhatt.
😆😂😆😂😂😆😂
Got that Gremlin on the wing vibe from Twilight Zone
Keep in mind how the entire show revolves around a Chess scheme. In this scene, the little guys think the King is cornered, but the King is free to move in any and every direction and gets away.
Well said
DON DEMARCO!
🔥🔥🔥
Daniels even says I hold two positions - and all this just to take a look. Early days of the wire…
This is such a brilliant analysis...
holy shit
Maybe if these guys weren't driving so aggressively and locking up their brakes every stop, he wouldn't have noticed
Honald Trinton lol, they tend to do that.
Honald Trinton Avon would have noticed regardless...
Honald Trinton ... nah how about theyre the only ones on the ROAD. no cars but them!
He already knew they were following him that's why he started driving. Think about it he never drives he doesn't even have a license. This was just to make them show themselves.
So true 😂😂😂😂😂💯💯💯
The way the wire kept the character of Avon Barksdale kind of a mystery was brilliant. They made him a presence without really to much screen time initially. In effect Stringer was the focal point in the first season until the end. But once we got to see Avon after his release from prison the dude was an absolute tour de force. I mean this guy was so cool, so raw, so unbelievably Baltimore it was mind boggling. Seriously that character made the show in my opinion. Shocking screen presence. Still my favorite character and there were a bunch on that show.
Came here looking for the finger wag and the walk out of jail.
Avon was so G.
@@thatoneguychad420 g.. in every sense of the word... brilliant casting of wood harris....he delivered the goods...great dialog.....wardrobe....just nailed it......swag for days
@@timothyslaughter476 yeah man. Tbf pretty much the whole casting was on point. Such a good show.
@@thatoneguychad420 best ensemble of actors in one series ever, period.....I'm with ya
Yeah dog, and the contrast between him and the other players who didn't measure up.
I was flipping tha channel 1day & came across this scene, went & bought tha whole season.
Stone Martian smart man
the scene where michael turns down marlo’s cash & he’s confronted popped up on my homepage, watched a couple clips & a week later went & bought all 5 seasons. dvd store was having a sale what would’ve been $125 came to about $60
Once u see the wire ya hooked
Once you see the wire your wired, no,no, your plugged..idk
Same happend to me i was wired an pin eyed looking fa da nex fix
Just a sec. This clip is a triumph of sound design. Avon and his trucks stereo are like Jaws here, with his theme announcing his proximity and giving you a sense of dread and awe subconsciously. The echo off the buildings, the bass thumping when he’s barely close enough to hear, all of this was carefully crafted. It even has a “we need a bigger boat” moment at the end. Every person who worked on the Wire was great and firing on all cylinders every day.
The tone even changes at the end to tell us he’s gotten away (Doppler effect). Master class in audio, this segment.
What's the name of the song he's playing
@@Pops34100 Rock the Nation by Michael Franti & Spearhead. You know them from "Hey I Love You"
Tobias Merriman thanks for writing this
Great shout with the Jaws comparison. Hadn't considered the sound design before in this scene, but it stands to reason as the show uses sound very intelligently throughout.
Guess I'm watching it all again...
The fact that Avon had no criminal record or even driver's license for them to ID him by is pure gangster. He even later used his "no priors" reputation to get released from a 7 year bid after only 2 years.
But my question was why didn't they just pull him over for driving without an ID?
@@frankbaiamonte3158 weak charge and they did not want that. Avon mentions it in a later seen. Police don't want stupid weak charges and blowing wire taps over that. Hence pissed when cheese had killed a dog over a person cuz it blew their wire
@@frankbaiamonte3158 Avons a huge criminal, they want to get him for more then just a license
The fact that the Pohlice couldn’t even get a picture of the man in s1 makes him a way better gangster than Marlo imo
@@bigpump7985 Avon & Marlo both cool as hell in their own respective manners.
Seems like Avon knows the streets better than the Police do
Very symbolic statement. I think what you stated sums up this scene beautifully.
Think?
That's his job
Of course he lives there they just visiting
As he should...
god damn. avon was such a fucking boss
Yea he’s was!!
Why?
So much better than Marlo
Marlo needed muscle with him at all times lol Avon was comfortable moving around by himself because he had everyone's respect as well as being feared.
This is 1 scene Avon always had somebody with him
At one point it shows him completely paranoid, getting Wee Bey to move along anyone in the proximity of his house. Then he'd run to the car.
@@_meangreenjersey973 no he would leave himself open all the time at his barbershop. There are plenty of times he sent the soldiers out by themselves and he stayed at the funeral home or strip club. Marlo had somebody at all times except the card game.
@@_meangreenjersey973 only once the beef was on
Don’t talk like some dumbshit, marlo was more than capable of handling business by himself
lmaooo avon ran that red light just because he knew he could, none of the cops would've risked their sting op for a red light ticket
He took a right on Red you can do that
Redditmemes the sign says ‘no turn on red’
@@brian27610 during 7-4, its legal
Tru point taken
Sydnor said he jumped the light. The sign says no turn on red between 7 and 4 (school hours), so it must be between 7 and 4. He's baiting them and wouldn't have minded being stopped for a minor traffic violation to get a good look at them.
avon barksdale one of the greatest fictional characters ever
wood harris was beyond amazing
and that’s Saying a lot, considering how many great performances were on the show
the character avon Barksdale is based off of the real Baltimore druglord Avon "bodie" Barksdale nothing fictional about it
oh ok thank you
heard something about that wasn’t sure it was factual.
@@meechiking5943 Avon was based on many criminals, but mainly was based on drug kingpin Melvin Williams who did a role in the show as the Deacon

@@deb7457 Makes me think of in the movie Casino when Joe Pesci has to swap like 4 or 5 whips in underground garages in Las Vegas to get the tails off him. He knew all the spots just like Avon except Avon did it all in the Ford Excursion lol
Avon is westside, those are east side streets he was driving on
It’s spelled pleighboi
Only a Boss would wave his finger at Police.... Casually and never loses his cool.
The Avon finger wave has to be. One of the top iconic scenes in this series.
When i first watched the series i thought seasons 3 and 4 were the most enjoyable. Then watching it a second time i realized the best was the first. No other season shows the trenches of the drug trade/war. Once all the other angles were introduced it was lost in the fray but season 1 shows the street level view so masterfully.
Seasons 2 and 4 were very difficult for me to process. I love the show in general and will definitely be rewatching. I have been studying the show so that I can have a better understanding once I watch it again.
Julia Lyons the show gets better and better the more you rewatch imo. I missed a lot of key stuff and was confused by some things my first time around but once you know and love the characters everything connects the next time you watch it. S2 and S4 are the best seasons behind S1. I too think S1 was the best and S5 get unjust hate it was just as good as the others imo.
Matt Well I agree with everything you said!💯
The best writer was gone for season 5
Absolutely
Avon played the shit out them boys
Dude's a legend
+Seeing bro this scene was some GOAT shit forreal. Finessed em hard afffffff
+Seeing evan blasting even blasting music the whole time, making it easier to find him, but they couldn't lol
It's hard to due now or days trust
The wire is an absolute masterpiece , think I've watched each season at least 4 times .
Shid try ten times
Beautiful scene. They were way to aggressive in pursuit
Agree
The finger wave is classic
Makembe Mutombo style
Understand that this is just Hollywood but if you got some middle aged white and black guys driving around in the same car in Baltimore, that has 5-0 written all over it!
but its pretty accurate - i mean its fiction, its a tv show nobody disputes that but many other aspects are pretty spot on.
Yeah as far as “Hollywood” goes the wire is one of the most realistic series ever made. Of course nothing can be perfect. And addressing the white and black thing there are plenty of white cops, criminals and junkies in most urban areas
Maybe Avon’s white
They’re police or drug addicts
Big Jay this was actually filmed in Baltimore for real. This was no Hollywood set.
Marlo was just a ruthless sociopath...Avon had his moments but overall I agree was much more of a king/leader when it came down to it...his boys took prison sentences like it was nothing for them (most anyways)...even when they get raided at the end of s3 the one guy tries to take the blame for all the guns...Marlo became so powerful because he just killed everyone...rather than be respected and feared he was happy just being feared which lasted a little while but not forever
Which is why Avon could hustle $100k from Marlo behind bars.
'Ain't no sense in ruining a good safe.'
@Colby Martinez False.
@Colby Martinez
No reason to. Marlo had to retire or go to jail. So he sold the connect. Avon would've kept the connect and made bank while serving his time.
Marlo is like sunny from bronx tale feared vs respected

NELSTAR HS A retired NBA player.
Damn, nobody doing research on historical NBA players past Shaq, Magic and Jordan, this some shameful shit right here.
Sydnor alerted Avon when he backed up over the intersection
He couldn't have though, Avon came down that street later. He couldn't have seen Sydnor from that angle.
He was just sitting there so something had already alerted him
I think Avon was alerted when he saw the Crown Vic just sitting in front of him. Anyone with a brain back then knew a Crown Vic was almost always a Police car.
It's the first time that they actually get a visual on Avon Barksdale. Before this, they never knew what he looked like because he didn't have a criminal record and he was well insulated at the top of his mob. One of the cops saw him at the basketball game (east side vs west side) and told Daniels that he might be the Avon they are looking for.
No, Lester finds a boxing poster of him from a gym.
@@asokahanderson122 Yes, because a picture of you at 18 years old is probably what you look like now when your in your 30s and 40s.
BronzeBullBalls You were still corrected, also he does look the same😂
Didn't a couple of cops saw him at the basketbal game against prop Joe?
@@Joeri20cm IIRC they specifically had to ask people in attendance which one was Avon
AVON THE KING
Come at the king you best not miss...
Omar was definitely the king along with Brother mouzone
That there my friend is a top shotta dough!!
King stay the king.
Avon > Marlo. Any day.
Before this Daniels was seriously underestimating Avon. It was this moment where Daniels realised just who he was up against. There’s that scene after this when Daniels returns to the office and tells McNulty he now realises Avon is better than he thought
That finger wag will NEVER stop being funny!🤪🤣🤣
Baltimore scenery hasn't changed. These episodes were filmed damn near 20 years ago and you could walk down these same streets today and it would look the same 😢😢
So sad😢
I always love this scene, just watching Avon drive around by himself. You saw how important he was to the cops & they could't touch him.
Actually, they already got a picture of Avon from Lester, but ya this is the first time when they saw him in person.
What this cast of actors did will never be forgotten or outdone.
Its funny because even the pedestrians notice they're cops with how they're driving.
this scene is so well shot, powerful visuals
They made the mistake of tryna get Avon in his own environment he know then streets too well
Avon is so badass
Come at the King you best not miss...
They missed.
That finger wag is legendary
Who's watching The Wire again in quarantine?? :)
I always think it's a good thing Daniels is the one who saw Avon.. If it was herc or carv they would've drove by pointing with jaws dropped
It had to be Daniels, boss meets the boss and realises he might have to get his hands dirty on this case.
🤣
😂 😂
If it was herc he would’ve started shooting
wood harris played this character so well
This has to be the best barksdale scene
I think this was a major turning point for the Lieutenant. He left earlier saying "In Narcotics, we make cases off of following perps." In this moment, he realized he wasn't dealing with some low or even mid-level player but Avon Barksdale, a sophisticated kingpin who won't fall easily.
Notice how Marlo could never ride solo in the whip, even at the PEAK of his reign.
This was one of my favorite parts of the show... Classic.
Gotta love Avon!!! Probably my favorite character on the show.
This was such a tension full scene when you originally watch season 1. They didn't even know who Avon was, he was a ghost for so much of the series.
This was still one of the only times before they arrested him that they actually spotted him on the street
Watching these clips made me forget how good the wire is,the best show ever made to date! 🐐🔥❤️
nothing compares to season 1 of the wire
+Ibn Khairuddeen (ابن خير الدين الألباني) i actually prefered season 3 for some reason but both were top notch
Season 4
Season 4
except 3.....or 4....
A lotta people say 3/4 but I always liked Season 1 best
2:57 I'm going to do that every-time someone try to cut me off on traffic.
😂😂😂
I kid you not. I saw The Wire two years back and ever since then, did this whenever folks would try to cut me off.
I also do it whenever cops drive behind me trying to screen my plates. I switch lanes, brake to match their speed, then wave the Avon finger in their face.
Nigga that’s Tyler with a mustache tf you mean hahaha
@@Raphie009 try that in NY and they will pull u over for sure
@@EVILWAFFLE543 I wouldn't drive in NYC. Too much traffic.
Notice they have Avon in the bigger suv .also the bosses driving the big fancy trucks ....symbolism at it's finest ...
and notice how the drug kings and crews had ether ford or Nissan models, and cops had ether gm or Chrysler models, some crownvicts not to many tho
thereallifez slim charles is always driving in some gmc truck
The Ford excursion is the biggest ever mass produced SUV if I’m not mistaken it’s so fitting for Avon to be driving it. Makes Daniels SUV look tiny in comparison
Larrymcjones car was factory produced at like 30’ shits like a limousine on 4x4 aha
@@thereallifez huh... you can see at 0:48 they show Avon's Ford and then switch to the cops also driving a Ford.
Avon was my favorite Kingpin
Greatest show ever made. It was too real for TV.
🙌🏾👏🏾🤝🏾
The real Avon:"You couldnt come to my hood unkown unless you wanted to get hit by a pizza"
Interviewer:"Pizza is that like drugs?"
Avon:"No thats a sewer top gettin thrown off the roof at you"
Yea until Omar started trying to get at him
when luitenant Daniels sighed and said "he never made it out of chase" it was at that moment he knew they fucked up. lol
and notice the name of the street "chase". fucking brilliant.
The show was so smart with the limited screen time for Avon in the first season. He was as much a mystery to us as the cops. Fucking brilliant. Wood Harris was the GOAT in this role! Not only the top dog but a great balance of humor with the character too. That finger wag is not only bad ass…it’s pretty funny too 😂
3:04 that super subtle look of humiliation and defeat was great acting
One of the coolest scenes in the series
one of my favorite scenes from this series.
Koldest scene ever... And tht song he bumpn jus sealed the deal...This shit is chess not checkers 💯
Megajaye Tv “rock the nation” love the song choice it sounds tougher being used as background audio here
Great scene, Avon was on top of the world at this point
I love this scene. Notice that Avon's truck is extra large also a symbol to the power and influence he has in the streets.
This was basically a who can brake hardest and tire screech the loudest/longest contest
One of my favourite, if not my favourite scenes in the whole show
Things like “he’s going East in Oliver” is where I would fail. I would say something along the lines of “he’s going left of Oliver.” I have no sense of directions like that
That’s why Bunny Colvin gave his rookie patrolmen compasses
You cant beat him in the streets. Avon knows the streets very well
I WANT MY CORNERS
0:35 the guy standing in the tan shirt is one of my all time favorite Wire actors.
Lol
Funny how it looks like Santangelo next to Daniels at the end doesn't even notice Avon just drove past them 🤣
2:52 - All-time classic scene...Daniels intensity matched up against King Avon...
Everyone on this show has a Tahoe Chevrolet.
American cars are so fucking massive and these huge streets have like 2-3 people on them just sat there and no traffic except one drug lord and a few dipshit cops, idk is it like that everywhere or just Baltimore.
its a good ass vehicle. I owned one lasted years i wrecked it. Avon was in a Ford though
Notice the 1st season had those crazy camera angles they ditched in the later seasons. Was probably some new age cinematography shit in 2002 lol.
Damn, those tahoe's used to look so good when they were new.
The Real Mayor of Baltimore. He knew the streets so well even the police couldn't play tag with him.
We all came for 2:58 💯😂 Avon was the one you needed. He saw through everyones bullshit unlike Stringer
This is how I drive every time I leave the house ; ]
Avon was 2 steps ahead of em
This was at the beginning when they were getting that unlimited OT + cars
This scene was priceless. Good thinking Avon Barksdale.
Wow it’s amazing that almost every clip of the wire on UA-cam has atleast a million views
Avon is gangsta!!
Avon was a smart dude he ran lights and everything just to get a perspective of what they wanted and why they were following him and him running the lights and them not pulling him over proved his point they was tryna see where he would go
Avon was my favourite on here
Either Avon turned his music down once he lost them and then turned it back up at the end just to flex, or he had it blaring the whole time and didn’t even care.
I don’t know which is cooler, but both are hilarious
2:56 that finger wag he gave him just screams certified gangster.
Ye rags. Avon was certy.
one of the most bad ass scenes in the show by far the first time i watched it i was like DAMNNNNNNNN
Marlo had the right type of stomach for the game, but Avon is that nigga to me. He much more charismatic. He is immersed with the community, camouflaged so to speak, yet he is arguably the sole most important person in those hoods during his reign. He is humble and wise enough to navigate West Baltimore as innately as breathing.
My favorite Avon scene😎💯
One of my favorite TV show scenes EVER. I cried laughing the first time. Such a G
I LOVE the comments section of The Wire videos. 😅
Everything from reminiscing, over-analysis to a *LOT* that makes you go "Hmmm, I hadn't considered that" 🔥
Best.
We’ve not seen television like it since in my opinion.
Avon Will forever be the coolest gangsta boss
