Premieres tomorrow night at 10pm.

Synopsis of premiere:

So freaking awesome that the wait is finally over. Yet I'm sad at the same time.

For those interested with dvrs and vcrs, make sure you pad it to end at 11:08, as thats what time my guide says it ends, and i don't know how other dvr systems have it programed.

I felt the same way going into the final seasons of Sopranos and Six Feet Under. You love the show so much you can't get enough of it, yet you know the end is coming soon...

I cannot wait for Tuesday night. The next 13 weeks are going to be awesome!!

Finally, its here....

Thanks for the tip. I'd deleted my old season pass, and I used to pad it by 10 minutes every week because it always seemed to bleed over into the next hour. FX usually shows the episode again right after too.

MY GOD! I can hardly remember what was happening it has been so long ago. I'm betting the better part of 10 minutes is devoted to "Previously on The Shield".

It's been 15 months, how did last season end?

Major plot threads:

-After facing threats of forced retirement all season, Vic walked out on his one chance at saving his job (an appeals hearing) in order to track down a lead regarding a Mexican gang attempting to essentially take over Farmington. What he found was a lackey of a land developer with gang ties (Cruz Pezuela) toting around a huge box of blackmail on all sorts of local officials. Vic (of course) roughed the guy up, showed the box of blackmail to Acaveda, and took off with it (actually the last scene in the season).

- After being found out as Lem's killer by Vic and Ronnie, Shane attempted to ensure his safety. He created a document detailing all the Strike Team's misdeeds, to ensure that Vic wouldn't hurt him or his family, and also started working with the Armenians for some extra cash. When his Armenian employer started to distance herself, Shane blabbed that "Vic and his guys" were behind the money train robbery. Of course, the Armenian boss was none too pleased about this, and sent a hitman over to Corrine's house. Predicting this, Shane had kidnapped Corrine and Cassidy, locking them in a storage container for their own safety. Of course, Vic wasn't exactly thrilled about that, and vowed that he'd "crush" Shane.

- Billings finally cashed in on his bump on the head from earlier in the season, announcing that he was too injured to work and would be suing the city for a large sum of money.

- Dutch and Danny finally kissed.

Yes, yes, yes, yes....

So friggin excited.

I almost didn't want this day to come, The beginning of the end.

This is the most perfect timing.. I have just rewatched seasons 1-6 in preparation of this.. I am finishing off the season finale of 6 tonight and will watch the premier tomorrow night..

CANNOT WAIT!

that "refresher" video is good, because it contains alot of the plot points i think will get tied up this season.

I watched Season 6 over the weekend as a refresher for tonight.

Whoo Hoo!

Finally! I'm hoping tonight is one of those limited interruption episodes, because there's no way I'm trusting this to my DVR.

Just finished watching season 6 this morning before work. About an hour ago I told all the customers hanging around that, starting tonight, I'll be closing right on time (9pm) every Tuesday for the next 3 months.

Like everyone else, I'm psyched and saddened that this is finally the end.

Here we go!!!!

Holy shit! Ronnie is moving up!

Hulu will be showing episodes - but it just says "Coming Fall 2008". Hopefully it will be the day after the first airing for those of us who don't have cable.

about time Ronnie got his hands dirty.

"Dutch, will you fill my box?"

Solid opening

"Call it a Billings"

A great level beginning for the wild roller coaster ride we know is coming.
