The Shield

[BleedDodgerBlue]

The Shield returns for its final season. I think 13 episodes on April 3rd, and subsequent tuesdays on FX.

It hasn't aired for over a year, but it leaves off with Clem being shot and killed. There is a 15 minute internet clip showing the funeral and a few more scenes before the April 4th premeire. It's supposed to be on budtv.com I looked and couldn't find it. Seemed like a stupid site to me and pissed me off. Just show it on regular TV.

I was of the firm belief that this was the best show on TV (American Idol excluded) until I saw the wire. The wire is better, but HBO shows generally are.

The Shield is still a great show and just a reminder it starts next Tuesday.

Thanks for the update, BDB. Wife and I were readjusting our Tivo season tickets last week, and I didn't see any new future shows listed. I will get on that tonight, and make sure I get it on the dockett.

Absolutely unbelievable season-ender last year, sets up for quite a year this year. You mentioned the funeral for Clem, I can only imagine the intensity of that funeral, and the way people will be looking at each other (or not) for that scene. Definitely one of the top 3 shows on TV for me, if not the top.

Show is very well done especially in regards to the angles they use...obviously many shows are doing this now, as opposed to the 1 camera sitcom style, but this was fairly innovative. They also use that "grainy" camera for some shots which is kinda cool. Thought last season was the worst of them all...still will be interesting to see where it goes.

Only show that really slowed down and I'll never watch again: Rescue Me. Totally off the deep end.

Actually it's "Lem" and he wasn't shot, Shane dropped a grenade in his car and killed him. It's also only going to be a 10 episode season, followed by season 7 early next year, and then the show is over. Sorry for being picky, but I'm a nut when it comes to this show!

Here's my prediction fellas:

Shane starts to feel too much pressure and has to turn to Vic for help. He tells Vic to help him frame someone because if he goes down for killing Lem he is going to tell all about what happened with Vic killing Terry. What would Vic do if that happened?

I bought season 5 and am watching it again as we speak. I've heard lots about The Wire. I think I'll have to check it out. Aside from that, The Shield is the best show I've ever seen.

Love the show... wouldn't be surprised to se Vic kill Shane...

Best show on TV hands down. However this is actually the sixth season for 10 episodes with a seventh and final season scheduled for next year with production starting in June.

Still on Tivo.....going to watch it tonight. One review about the season I read from people who advance screened it was that the first 2.5 hours of the season are mostly setup and that the ending is so perfect and unexpected.....will have to wait and see......looking forward to watching it tonight.
