the Shield "on tilt" season finale 6/15

I just saw that reruns of the entire series begin on Sunday June 27th at 11pm eastern. FX will air all three season until season four premieres next April. Now I can watch the show from the beginning - I've always avoided it because I hadn't watched it from the start and didn't want to miss anything. I like how FX re-airs the seasons of their original shows - if they didn't I would have never been able to admire the greatness that is Nip/Tuck before the second season starts NEXT WEEK!

Call me crazy but I have a feeling that the Armanian chick Vic boned is gonna be pregnant. That sex scene was way too out of place for it not to come back later IMO.
To Andre 3000 great job even though his ATL accent was still thick as hell. I wish more people in the hood would do what he was doing and cut out all that "I aint no snitch" crap

I wonder how Vic will handle being a full time dad. He likes to be with the women to much. Can no longer do it at home. How will his wife handle the two autistic children, still think that one or both end up institutionalized.
Dutch and the kitty-cat. Is this the next big murder?
I feel that the Armenian mob thing will eventually come back. If deportation girl gets pregnant, will that spark retaliation after she relates the events that Vic killed Margos?
Was I the only one who thought that Vic was going to shoot Shane? With the screen going to credits, I almost expected to hear gunfire. Glad I didn't, would've been worse than "who shot J.R.?"
Bring on 2005 and the next batch of 15.

This was a great finale. It tied up some loose ends, without forcing closure on everything. I'm glad they will be replaying the entire series, I missed about the middle half of season 2 and unfortunately I don't have the DVDs yet. (I wish I would have caught the Nip/Tuck reruns, but that is neither here nor there.)

I'm glad they didn't go with the major cliffhanger ending, shows that stubbornly adhere to that formula too often suffer for it, IMO.
The hooker scene with Assinvader and the Vic sex scene were very odd and out of place.

The ringless finger told me that but I still don't understand why he randomly 'busted' a hooker?

It seems like a lot of people who like The Shield also like Nip/Tuck, which I have never watched. Why is that? They don't seem similar to me on surface at all. I like The Sopranos, Deadwood and Curb Your Enthusiasm but NOT Sex in the City or Six Feet Under, and I think The Shield is top notch. Should I give Nip/Tuck a try?

Because both shows feature top-notch writing and acting. Plus Nip/Tuck is, IMO, like no other show on television, network, cable, or pay cable. Also, like The Shield, the producers are willing to cross the line.

Great finale! I like the scene between Vic and Dutch in the snack room. Intense. Anyone think Vic will find out about Dutch's
and use it against him in some way?

I understood Aceveda and the hooker. I think he understood it too well and flashed his badge to get himself out of that situation. It would be really stupid for him to have carried thru with it. (And he coulda picked a better looking gal )
Solid ending leaving the strike team in jeopardy. Can't believe how whipped Shane is and how it's putting the money before the team.
Vic just getting his freak on this season.

I agree with you on how whipped he is, but I can totally believe that Shane would put money ahead of friendship.

Okay episode. I didn't watch much of this season so will catch up on the reruns.
Watch where you're going!
Come on, that wasn't even a crosswalk.
One of the more funnier lines for this episode.

Yeah - Vic gets around, so I doubt that he is that quick.
