The Wire's David Simon proclaims himself "#DumbestTVProducerAlive" for killing off "Sexiest Man" winners Idris Elba and Michael B. Jordan

Twitter

"I think it fair to note that I may well be the only writer-producer to launch the careers of two winners of #SexiestManAlive," Simon tweeted in noting that People magazine has selected The Wire alums as Sexiest Man Alive for the second time in three years. "On the other hand, I killed both characters early, one in season one and the next in season three. #DumbestTVProducerAlive."
