Again, not the best decision, but he certainly didn't go to the house alone.

Any police officer w/ half a brain knows that.

Martinez: "Well, I guess I'd say the biggest difference was that I was surprised to learn that the Vic Makey character is actually gay."
Chiklis: "Hey now, don't knock it until you try it."
Guess that'll learn him to say things like that...

Being a viewer of Oz, I wasn't too shocked - imagine the same scene, only with no couch blocking the shot and then spooge shooting out of Aceveda's nose - that's what Oz would have done.

So what were people saying about how this show would push more boundaries if it were on HBO?

I assume that there will be a S4 of The Shield so this was the way to keep Aceveda in the squad instead of on the city council.

Am I the only one who actually wants Aceveda to get a seat on the city council? I think it would add another dimension to the show. Also, being on the city council, Aceveda would have more to worry about than just the Strike Team which would lead to futher tension between Vic and Claudette which would be interesting.

Burrito, popsicle, corn dog...ecliar. All permenantly off the Aceveda menu.
Mackey will enjoy having this on him, but he'll apply it moderately, only bringing it out when he reeally needs it.
Suffice it to say that the Reed Diamond character's murder will never be looked at any closer is Aceveda has anything to say about it.
And I agree w/ SiberianLlama: I want to see him move up. He'll just get himself into stickier and stickier predicaments. Vic can be going over Claudette's head to pull the occasional favor from his special buddy Dave.
JumpTheShark my ass...this episode makes it the best show not on HBO and the 2nd best on TV, moving it a smidge closer to The Wire.

I'm a week behind on this season, but WOW. Powerfully nauseating to say the least, I felt myself involuntarily gagging along with Aceveda at the end of that episode.
Damn.
Damn.

So...
I'm a little late to the Shield party. I had always heard it was good, but just picked up the first season when I found it for $10 a few weeks ago. This show is amazing. Since then I've gone straight through the 1st and 2nd seasons and I'm now on season 3.
Last night I watched this episode. "Mum". WOW. No way I would have thought this show could have been on primetime TV, but this episode was disturbing in a way no TV show has ever effected me. I had trouble sleeping right afterwards. It was that bad/good. Can't wait to see what happens next. And yes, I go back and read the threads from each episode to see what people were saying when the shows first aired.
Great program.
