    Warning: Don't read link unless you've finished all five series. Thar be spoilers!

    Interesting list, what is the forum opinion?

    Don't know what the hell Sydnor and the Greek are doing on it, Prez is pretty low down for a very significant role. Reckon Randy should have been included too.

    I would have had Prez up higher too, as well as Frank and Nick Sobotka. Overall though, its pretty spot on I reckon, although I only took a quick look at it.

    Think Randy should have been in there. Glad that Sydnor was mentioned - I always felt he was underappreciated. Bodie and Prez should have been much higher up, but Omar definitely deserving of top spot.

    Always felt that Sydnor was a really underdeveloped character, they didn't really do anything with him at all, apart from the very end when
    they set him us as McNulty's successor in dealing on the side with the judge
    .

    Chris, Bunny and Snoop being above Bodie is a travesty imo

    qft

    Edit: Hold on, is Chris above Bodie? It's late and I'm very tired. But I'm certain Frank Sobatka should have been higher. The man had a serious impact.
