The Deuce: Lori Madison


Given I’ve watched The Wire, this show gave me one of the most Gut punching scenes ever.  It happened the Sunday before.  Lori Madison was a character we’ve seen on the show for three seasons.  We watched her go from being a hooker on the streets to one of the biggest pornstars.  In the end, she was getting tired of the sex game and decided to blow her brains out after picking up a John for the last time.  When you rewatch that episode, you can see when she decides to kill herself.   
I love how The Deuce shows all sides of the sex trade.  And, they really showed what happens to many of these big-time pornstars.  Some of them will end up dead.  Emily Meade did an amazing job with the character.  Anyway, check out the interview with the actress playing Lori and the producer.   
For every Ginger Lynn, there are at least 5-7 pornstars that end up either killing themselves or die from an overdose.
