if michael chiklis actually had hair i think he would have come out and admitted that he's jesus by now!

you know what's even more fun with the shield? try to picture him as "the commish" in the shield; you know, like tony scali eventually broke bad and nowadays when he finds a pen in the lunchmeat he's going to use it by jabbing it in somebody's throat when he demands $5000 from them =P

This is quite possibly my favorite show that I've ever seen. I loved it.

One of my favorite all time shows. Some seasons were better than others, but I've never been so satisfied with a series finale like this one.

+1.


Fantastic series with a perfect ending.

This show, along with Breaking Bad, might be the only two shows in history we can say that about.

Yeah, thoroughly enjoyed it and the ending was perfect.

Played soccer against Shawn Ryan in high school. We all hated him. :lol:

What a coincidence, I just started binge watching it on FX Now. Just finished the episode where Dutch caught his serial killer. This show would have been bigger if twitter was around back then. Enjoyable cop show

If this show was on HBO, people would have been losing their mind thinking it was the best show ever. FX didnt give them enough hype.

So I'm pretty drunk and watching this show. Season 2 episode 9. With no warning or indication they do the whole episode in flashback form. I was watching for a good 15 minutes and didn't know what the fuck was going on until I paused it and googled the episode. Dick move

ToxicMasculinity, spoilers below..........
























So I just finished season 5. Jesus, that was awful. Am I supposed to still be rooting for Shane in any type of way? In one episode he went from one of my favorite characters to my least favorite on the show.

Lol no you're not. I remember yelling when that happened and was pissed for a good day or so. Dude that died was my favorite character on the show. Just wait though it does get even better. They've only just begun.

About a month after that episode aired my wife was in a bar in a mepmphis and Walton Goggins walked in and ghe wife was more than a little drunk and talking to me on the phone. Then I hear her loudly say he's here. That guy who killed lem. Apperently she said it loud enough as he turned around and left the bar.

Lem was the only person who could see the line the Strike Team keeps blurring. He's the only one I can consistently relate to.

A real fan would never call it Dr Who, unless you were referring to the 1965 American rip-off movie

True sorry for the abbreviation but I was on my fucking phone at the time .

It is the only show I can honestly say I have enjoyed as both child and adult. I really want to meet Chris Eccleston and shake his hand for being as good as he was for his short run.

Obviously most shows you have to suspend disbelief for, but it's pretty hilarious to me how often the Strike Team or anyone else just simply unplugs the camera in the interrogation room when they want to do some dirty shit. Pretty lazy from a writing perspective. :lol:

I would like to agree with you except for the frequency of dash and body cams being inoperable during skeptical police behavior.
