The Shield - Season 5 Finale
on: March 29, 2006, 09:49:13 pm
So I spent the last 5 days downloading and watching the entire 5th Season of The Shield.

And, before I give you my opinions on the finale, I remind you that this is me, an0n, talking. Got that? Right, then:

I actually cried.

And I ain't cried in like 8 years. Not for anything. And I started ****ing crying.

Hell, I'm welling up again just thinking about it enough to type this.

Best. Episode. Ever.

Of anything.

Ever.

And I feel so strongly about this that if anyone argues, I'm going to stab them in the kidneys.

If you don't go get the entire season and watch it right the way through - right now - I swear to God, I'm going to fly out and punch you in the goddamn mouth.

I, personally, am going to go buy every last Shield DVD I can get my hands on.....

Is it humanly possible for me to ask what this "The Shield" is without getting stabbed, shot, or otherwise mutilated?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

It's about police. Specifically, a small police station in Farmington and the 'Strike Team' led by Vic Mackey.

They're like mini-SWAT in principle, but they're corrupt so they skim profits from the drug and prostitution rackets, kill Internal Affairs moles and occassionally attack Aremenian money laundering operations to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash.

Basically, it's like NYPD Blue would've been if Sipowitz had been possessed by the spirit of Judge Dredd in the first episode.

It's writing is up there with BSG, Sopranos, 24 and House.

It's like the Apocalypse, but with 99% less Jesus.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!
