After 15 months of waiting, fans of "The Shield" will finally get to see the show's final season this fall.
FX has set Tuesday, Sept. 2 as the premiere date for the seventh and last season of the show, which established the cable network as a destination for original series and set the template for future edgy FX series ranging from "Rescue Me" to "Damages." The season premiere comes a year and three months after the most recent original episode in June 2007.

The premiere date is perfect for me. Now I can rewatch the first 6 seasons and be as ready as possible

I hope they intend to re-air the last "season" prior to that premiere. What is stupid about that date is that FX will be competing with broadcast TV for ratings since the regular TV season will be starting. Dummies.
My crowded recording schedule may force me to record the later airing.

1. Homicide (Best show ever on TV)
2. The Wire (Best show ever on cable)
3. The Shield (The grittiest and rawest show on TV)
4. Dexter (Although technically speaking it isn't a true cop show)
There are plenty of others, but these 4 are the best

HOLLYWOOD - Courteney Cox's controversial TV drama Dirt has been canceled by network bosses at FX after just two seasons.
The second season of the show, on which Cox played a feisty tabloid editor, was shortened by the Writers Guild of America strike, and viewer figures slipped to just over one million per episode, prompting the decision to axe it.
Cox made the announcement, telling TVGuide.com, "It just got canceled."
But the former Friends star, who produced the show with her husband David Arquette, already has other projects in the pipeline. She says, "We’re developing all kinds of stuff right now. We'll be producing more stuff together, for sure."

I will say this for FX: I don't think they were looking at 1 year and 3 months. I would hope they would have gotten this on in a year or possibly even 10 months but for the strike. I can understand not wanting to burn this off during the summer.
I will also say that it will be awesome to have a few weeks of Burn Notice on Thursdays and The Shield on Tuesdays. It would be great to see a couple of folks from The Shield guest on Burn Notice season 3 once they are released from obligations to their FX series.
