Los Angeles is about to feel worse than Miami.
Wednesday, downtown LA is forecast to feel like 116. Burbank 117. Long Beach 106.
Miami that same afternoon: 108.
The moisture is left over from a hurricane, and the ocean breeze that normally saves LA is shut off. Nights only drop to the mid 70s.
If you're in Southern California without AC, this is the week to find some.
Some of the actors from #TheWire struggled to get new (or quality) roles after the show ended.
“It was so authentic, people thought we weren’t actors. At industry events, people would ask, ‘What are you doing here?’ And I’d say, ‘What do you mean?’ and they’d say, ‘What are you doing out of Baltimore?’ ”
Doing shows after “The Wire” was like a theater actor doing a play after Hamlet.
“I’d find myself on the set of a show feeling down, and I didn’t know why,” says Akinnagbe. “It took a while till I realized I have to accept that not all work is the same, and I have to find something interesting in each character. With ’The Wire’ we were thrilled every week — we’d read the script immediately and call each other to say, ‘Did you see that?’ ” -Gbenga Akinnagbe (Chris Partlow) 2018 LA Times interview
