Is Herc From The Wire the Worst TV Cop Ever?

[kp404]

Bubbles doesn't kill a kid, he doesn't ever get clean. He needed to bottom out. It's a very libertarian view of the social contract, actually. Bubbles can never bottom out while he has the support of the state. It gives him just enough to sustain him. As soon as the state evaporates (Herc bails on him), Bubbles has no choice but to fend for himself, to initially disastrous consequences. Bubbles survives this temporary period, learns to be self sufficient and thrives. Randian stuff from David Simon, here.

Very good point here.

I'm re-watching The Wire, and noticed every cop gets better but Herc. Is Herc the worst TV cop ever? This nikka Herc staying fukking up. Herc fukked Bubs and Randy's life up.

Prezbo was worse on The Wire.

He at least helped John McClain take down some terrorist at the Nokatomi building in 88.

he was a total idiot, however, he did end up winning by working for levy as a private investigator. makes waaaayyyy more money in the private sector than he ever could working for the BPD.

he was wack, but he stole off valchek (his own father in law in front of everyone) and he ended up being a really good teacher.
