Re: First Time Watching - The Shield

And done. Crazy ending although some major characters were left with no real closure. Really hated seeing Ronnie get arrested in the end. Was hoping he'd make it out unharmed. In the last scene, I 100% expected Vic to eat his gun. Though, seeing him alone not being able to be on the street with zero people left in his life was fitting for him.

Are we to assume the kid Dutch was working on was the killer? I mean, they all but said he was; yet they didn't actually say that he was.

Overall, this show lived up to all the hype. Easily top five series for me at this point. I'm really surprised it didn't spawn some type of spin-off.

It still remains the greatest final season in television history. Most long-running shows are struggling by the end, The Shield went out on top.

Yeah, it's not often I watch a series finale and instantly want to know what happens next to the characters. Usually by a 7th season, a show has started to get dull and dragging. Not The Shield.

Re: First Time Watching - The Shield

will The Shield ever stream on any service in HD? tempted by the $30 on Vudu, but it doesn't look great in SD and i'm not getting blus...

Yeah, I already miss it quite a bit. I don't think I'm ready to re-watch it this quickly but I definitely crave more story with these characters.
