Video: Lie To Me: Season 3 Episode 8: Smoked (Full Episode)


Michael said on Twitter last night that he has a recurring role on the show. I'm watching it as I type, but I heard Larry Gilliard (D'angelo Barksdale) is on this show as well. Now, Lie To Me has joined the list of shows like Law & Order and CSI that the actors from The Wire have guest starred in. You can view Maestro Harrell (Randy Wagstaff) in his episode of the show here. I've fallen behind on watching Mike on Friday Night Lights, and I think I am one episode behind with Parenthood. He's doing really well with having a recurring role with 3 different TV shows. Good job Mike!

Michael Kenneth Williams (Omar Little of “The Wire”, Chalky White on “Boardwalk Empire”) joined Sean, John and special guest interviewer and diehard MKW fan Danny Vara to talk about his career, “The Wire”, and “Boardwalk Empire”.  One of the best.


Click here to listen to the interview. It's really good. He goes into how he made his transition from dancing to acting.  Also talks about how he met Snoop & how the cast mourned the death of Omar Little.  He also talks about his new show on HBO Boardwalk Empire. You can also hit him up on his Twitter page, he's good at writing people back.

De' & Me - Episode 1



Sharon goes to see a new therapist who resembles the character De'Londa Brice from HBO's "The Wire." Next thing you know, she's trapped in a world of crime and faces off with a rogue undercover cop. Will De'Londa, aka Dr. Eisenberg, give Sharon the therapy she needs? Will Sharon be able to afford Dr. Eisenberg's high rates? Is Dr. Eisenberg actually De'Londa Brice? Why are cops allowed to hit people? All these questions and more will be answered throughout this series.

Shout outs to @jwawro on Twitter for sending me this earlier today.

The Wire's Michael K. Williams in HBO's new series Boardwalk Empire

HBO is like the Disney Channel, they love recycling their actors, and I love them for that because they have the best ones.

Photobucket
Michael Kenneth Williams, the actor behind Omar, will be lending his talents to Boardwalk Empire, the upcoming series from HBO. He plays Chalky White, the de facto mayor of Chickenbone Beach, Atlantic City's black section. "Like" Boardwalk Empire for more info on Williams and the new series.

I'm NOT a Bow Wow fan, so I turned my nose up to this whole movie, until I saw the trailer and Gbenga aka Chris Partlow knocking Bow Weezy off his feet. I'm not still not gonna see the movie, but I'm sure there are a gang of Bow Wow fans who will.

So essentially this is Training Day 2 [sans Denzel] and this has been done al-freaking-ready. Anywho, I'm going to see it any damn ways because Don Cheadle is dope, and I love him more than I love Denzel. Hassan "Wee-Bay" Johnson is in the film as well.  Click here for the trailer.
