You know a show is awesome when you find yourself saying things like "Damn, they killed off my favorite gangbanger!" (Bodie) and truly feeling bad about it.

I rewatched this episode, and the more I think about it, the more I wish they had just ended the season on episode 12.
Bubbles situation didn't change
Mcnutty is still walking a beat
Carcetti didn't do anything significant.
Michael advanced a little, but it was already inferred.
it sucks about bodie, and pulling the greek back into it was nice, but I felt the previous episode was far more powerful.

HBO ORIGINAL SERIES (HBO) - The pay channel has confirmed its summer schedule, which will see the network expand to three hours of original programming on its signature night. It all starts on Sunday, June 10 at 9:00/8:00c with the swan song of "The Sopranos." Said finale will lead into the series premiere of David Milch's "John From Cincinnati" at 10:00/9:00c. The following week, on June 17, "John" will slide into the 9:00/8:00c hour where it will be bookended by season two of "Big Love" at 8:00/7:00c and season four of "Entourage" at 10:00/9:00c. Closing out the night then will be newcomer "Flight of the Conchords," a "Curb Your Enthusiasm"-esque comedy about the fictionalized life of the New Zealand folk parody duo of the same name, at 10:30/9:30c. Beyond this summer, look for the serialized comedy "In Treatment" and the relationship dramedy "Tell Me You Love Me" in the fall while fellow newbies "12 Miles of Bad Road" and (potentially) "True Blood" are due in 2008. ("Blood," which is currently casting its pilot, has yet to officially be ordered to series.) And finally, last but certainly not least, look for the final season of "The Wire" and a fresh run of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" sometime in 2008.

My Sunday nights this summer:
Turn on TV at 7pm Central to watch Big Love. Turn TV off at 8pm Central.
Turn TV back on at 9pm Central to watch Entourage.
Would have been nice to have Deadwood "bookended". I see no mention of that miniseries to wrap up the series either.

Who is the white guy in the Bubbles video? I know we saw him at the end of season 4 and it looked like we should have seen him before but I don't remember seeing him in the previous seasons.
