Strongest Wings of Roles of WIRE

909


Here's a list of some main characters in Baltimore-based tv-series THE WIRE which I feel highest interest in. They are from any or all of the first 3 seasons, which I've now seen.

As a parallell I make this an attempt to capture which Enneagram personalities (motivation filters) they seem to manifest. My numbers before each character reflects my sympathy for them (1 = most) and/or my enthusiasm to follow what happens with them.
