If you have a YouTube account you may have noticed that when you first go to Youtube (as long as you are logged in) they have “recommended videos” at the bottom.  I’d imagine what they do is track the videos you watch and then suggest related things. Often times the videos in the section are not things I would ever want to watch but every once in awhile something pops up that makes me happy.

Today one of the the videos selected for me was an interview with Andre Royo from The Wire.   Andre played the character of Bubbles, a junkie that throughout The Wire’s 5 seasons attempts to clean up his life and achieve a redemption of sorts.   His performance is without a doubt one of the best on all of television for the past 10 years.  Give a watch to the interview with him below and then go after the jump to see two of his amazing scenes as Bubbles.

And in the spirit of Bubbles, takepart to learn more about Alcoholics Anonymous.
