>I guess enough painkillers can make even the worst kind of hurt go away. The thing you need to know is that Mara was innocent, and Jackson was innocent. They didn't know what they were drinking and their last moments together were happy ones. They left the way I first found them, perfect and innocent. They were innocent and they're in Heaven now and we'll always be a family.>The guilty ones are me and Vic. Vic led, but I kept following. I don't think one's worse than the other, but we made each other into something worse than our individual selves. I wish I never met him.>I see it all now. There's no apologies I can make, no explanations I can give. I was who I was, and I can't be that person anymore. I can't let myself...>We think this is where he was when we came in, because it stops there.Powerful stuff.
>>215407794Man, the Shield was something differentThey don't make them like this anymore
damn...
Once Lemonhead went, there was no going back
>>215407794he deserved it for saying the n-word
Why he did it?
i sure do miss those kids. just want them home safe
>>215407794What episode of the matrix was this?
>kills his brother with a fucking grenadejesus man
>>215409235LEM I'M SORRY, BUT I HAD TO RIGHT?
>>215407794Someone compared breaking bad to the shield and how BRAVO lifted shit. Shane Shane's stealth run through LA was a lot the last episode of breaking bad but a fuckl oad more believable because LA is a lot bigger than ABQ and Walter was pretty much public enemy number 1 at that point and goddamn breaking bad's finalie was gay as fuck.
>>215407912re watching the last season nightly here. it's almost all over again.Rick has yet to take a shit or sleep for months. the man is crazy
>>215409235Says nigger and faggot in the same scene. has a hot wife with blue eyes. shane was based and misunderstood
>>215410255how did cletus van damme pull a woman like that?
>>215410284Venus mode
>>215410284Southern charm
>>215407794>I wish I never met him.No TV show has made me choke up like this. No movie either. It really felt like a punch in the gut when Shane said this considering how close they were, to the point that they were going to retire and play golf together every day. This show is too much for me, man. Just thinking about how it all ended destroys my mood.>>215407912Agreed. Best thing I've ever seen. 10/10.
>>215409235>aww extra grenade, my favourite>hey wait a mi
>>215409235Would Vic had spared Lem? Nothing in the series suggests to me that if push came to shove Vic wouldn't have killed Lem to cover his own ass.
succ memes aside, this duo was one of the most kino to happen to tv
>>215410867No, he 100 percent would've killed Lem and wouldn't feel any of the remorse or guilt Shane felt which nearly drove him insane and had him sobbing like a child. He would've made up some bullshit excuse and never told a living soul about it and been smarter about it than Shane. Consider what he did to Ronnie which is 1000x worse than what Shane did to Lem. Lem probably didn't feel anything and died shortly after. Ronnie will spend his entire life in a cage.
>>215410880Their last scene together is the best acting in any show/movie I've ever seen. Electric. I'm glad to know they've kept in touch since the show ended. Their chemistry is the best ever between two people in a show/movie which makes the finale letter all the more devastating.
>>215410604venus was my sexual awakening
>>215407794they look so fucking cool together
>>215407794>Vic led, but I kept following. I don't think one's worse than the other, but we made each other into something worse than our individual selves.super deep IMO yet plausibly something a non-pseud can come up with. great stuff
>>215409965i think as a comparison those two more sense than sopranos vs brba but yes agreed
>>215410867>>215410910Wait, Vic was planning to let Lem goHe did dirty on Tommy only after Lem death, everyone besides Ronnie went on a downrall spiral beinging the worst of Vic and Shane
Vic kept Lem's picture to remind himself he was still a good guy because he was the one guy he totally wouldnt have fucked over eventually
>>215412245This. Vic was pure evil and deserved to fucking die. I sure hope Olivia found a way to fuck him over and send him to Antwon Mitchell to get assfucked.>>215411616Trying to watch BrBa after Shield is like trading in a warm momma's meal for McDonald's slop.
small but natural
SUCK IT
>>215413433I'm watching The Shield for the first time and finally caught up to the legendary SUCK IT episode. This show is 10/10 so far.
>>215413461All I can tell you is that it definitely won't be the last time you see it.
>dutch crying in his car after catching a serial killerWhy
>>215413461Youre not supposed to leave poppers out in the daylight.
>>215414974He got completely emotionally dismantled by a sociopath, and despite getting kudos from his team for catching the guy, he can't help but feel the pain of those words cut him open. It's a pretty good scene tbqh
I'm on a rewatch right nowIt bugs me how retarded Shane and Lem wereLem>shoots unarmed brutha, the guys plant a gun on him, then it turns out he isn't a banger and Lem whines like a bitch until they have to stage a whole robbery on the police evidence vanShane>has a car full of stolen drugs, goes to fuck some hooah and gets it stolen>fucks suspect who turns out to be the ringleader of the crime they were supposed to be investigatingVic should have tossed the two of them years before and kept Ronnie who was somewhat less retarded
>>215407794>Ellipsis in a suicide note.Drama queen.
Reminder that Lem fought off three gang members with a shotgun but Aceveda sucked when confronted by two crackhead zombies
Shield is fun but absolute schlock. The first episode has kid rock playing. It's fun, but why does /tv/ elevate this show way beyond what it is?
>>215415868Kid Rock was one of the notable music artists of the time. ]Nu-Metal and post-grunge bands hit their peaks around 2002-2004.
>>215416267I'm older than you, nigger. Nu metal was a late 90s product that peaked in 2001. When this show aired it was long dead. Kid Rock is rap rock which died in the late 90s. Even if rap rock was alive in 2002, that scene wouldn't be any less cringe.
>>215407794So who would've busted them all eventually had everything not fallen apart the way it did?
>>215417117Either Kavanagh or Claudette
>>215416376You have no fucking idea what you're spewing and definitely not someone old enough to remember that time. Now, why on EARTH would someone pretend to be an old fart that was a youngster in Y2K is fucking beyond me. You need to sort your life out, little bro. You're legitimately an embarassment to existence. FIY, The Shield has elite ratings on all critic and audience sites and is easily Top 3 TV shows ever made. Also, I'm hundred percent sure you're the absolute fucking loser Wirefag who has nothing better to do with his worthless life than to shit up Shield threads and ruin the fun.Sincerely, kill yourselfBy me and everyone sane and worthwhile in this world.>>215417117The whole point was that they fucked things up themselves. They pulled off the perfect heist and would've retired on the Money Train cash. I sincerely doubt Kavanagh or Aceveda would've done anything. Claudette was powerless. They would've gotten away with it hundred percent
>>215415868>schlockoh shit i know who loves using that word youre that fucking sopranosfag arent you listen to the other anon and kys
>>215415868praise for the shield increased as the iq of the board decreased
>>215414974Cause he's the biggest faggot in the show
>>215417234Is the shield poster one guy? He always types in this deranged way. It's similar to the one guy that makes Onrism threads on /v/.
>>215417234>would've retired on the Money Train cashExcept for the part where some of that cash was compromised, even if Margos was never a factor
>>215417297Cuck Dutch was great comic relief and it’s not too late for a spin-off with Billings.
tfw no qt carjacking gf
>>215417312>Wireschizo samefag deflects and goes no u to hide him being outedplease kysit'd be the one good thing you ever did>>215417324True but they got around that too. Only Lem's paranoia and stupidity cost them that money. They rooted out the marked bills and separated them and still had a lot of clean stash left. The whole thing is a really gutwrenching tragedy when you think about it. At the end of the day, the Strike Team weren't evil people but blue collar cops who were tired of being fucked by life and living on a paycheck while risking their lives every day dealing with demons in human skin (joggers and sp1cs). The clown world punished them for acting out but at the end of the day, it was their own hubris.
>>215407794the ending was kino but no show should be seven seasons long, it was too filled with case of the week bullshiti would cut about 65% of the show and left mostly just strike team, dutch and billings
>>215417419You're very weird. I'm a phone poster who occasionally browses and my pattern recognition is going off with your posts. Something pivotal happened in your life while the shield was airing and you can't let it go.
>>215417368
>>215417531Take it easy Anon remember what the show taught us
>>215417419>Only Lem's paranoia and stupidity cost them that moneyThis, if Lem had just chilled and rolled with it, the whole thing would've gone away
>>215417707Did he ever figure out it was Billings?
thought we told you to stay away from the TWEENER PUSSY
>>215410867>Nothing in the series suggestsvic helped gilroy escape to mexico even though he was obviously a massive liability in terms of his reliability and gilroy definitely would have ratted on vic if he ever got caught. it's true that lem had way more incriminating info to divulge than gilroy but he is also way more reliable and loyal than gilroy. vic would have helped lem run
>>215407794>Shane banging teenaged black hookerThe show kept it pretty open ended if she was of age or not. I dont think they ever gave a real answer. one guy implied it and another said she was 18, but i might have missed something.
>>215407794The Shield gets more praise than it deserves but the finale is unquestionably kino. Easily top 5 tv show finales of all time. The scene where Vic just coldly lays out every crime he ever committed to the Fed while she looks on in horror realizing they already offered this monster immunity is some good shit.
>>215419732When the shield is good its really good, when its bad it can be unintentionally hilarious.
>>215409235>using the word "brother" the way black guys doPREVIOUSLY ON THE SHIELD
>>215410255>>215410284I never found shane's wife hot. plus her personality is horrible. plenty of other hot women on the show though
>>215420039Yeah. the show had many. I get lost in her eyes and pale skin. awful actress though
remember when dutch briefly dates vic's wife? theres so many random storylines littered throughout the show
She's a two face.
>>215420245who is?
>>215420243and Michael Chicklas real life daughter played his daughter on the show. Which explains a lot and also>pimps and hoes parties?
>>215413711why did they need to show us that "ass invader" did the suck? i mean once or twice is okay if it pertains to the episode but they showed it in every episode since it happened. did he piss some higher-up off?
>>215420299its weird how insanely tall she gets late in the show
>>215420295shanes wife. sometimes hot, sometimes not depending on the angle and lighting.
Ronnie looks like joe flacco

>>215419983the framing, its like a renaissance painting and reminds me of the scene from barry lyndon where hes stitting lookong all sad n shiet
>>215407912>They don't make them like this anymoreFortunately, hahahaha
>>215420415I know. the random piano in the corner is very aesthetic
>>215420405SPOOOOOOOKKKKK STREEEEEET NIGGGAAA
>>215420463do crackheads really just sit around playing piano and make city officials suck the smegma from their dick?
>>215420463That dude in the back was doing nothing that whole scene. Totally wasted opportunity for a classically themed suck montage.
>>215420405this is what every episode of the wire is like
I like The Shield more than The Sopranos. There was a guy about a decade ago on the AV Club who said it best. The Sopranos is a prize-winning show dog who looks perfect and can perform every trick, and The Shield is the slobbering doberman that is nasty and dirty but you love just the same. I prefer the nastiness of The Shield.
>>215420514
>>215420632the procedural storylines on the shield make it feel too much like law and order sometimes. thats the main weakness of the show to me
>>215407794i saw you post this on kiwifarms
Reminder: Vic goes on to the movie Eagle Eye, that is my head canon of what happens to his character. Vic would find a way past being put into a dead end federal job lmao. Also, I love this show because it explained to me asset forfeiture and let me know the cops werent all just cucks.
>>215407794>We're taking you out of the Matrix, cunt
>>215420405
>>215410867You know who went the entire show without betraying anyone? Billings.
>>215420370god damnit i know this is supposed to be a serious moment, but that kick and whatever he kicked i just laughed like an idiot
>>215420766then what about this>>215417707
>>215420803Kek. Dutch sucks and was not a Billings bro. Billings did nothing wrong.
>>215420803dutchboy played himself, as usual
>>215407794manlet vic and shane the retard. miss these motherfuckers like you wouldn't believe
>>215417368>>215417707>the pimp giving him dating adice
>>215420370are the memes real? I might need to watch it just for Goggins
>>215417707I"M STILL FUCKING MAD YOU HAD IT IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND YOU FUCKING IDIOT GOD DAMN IT FUCK
>>215421419yes. he is a gigaracist but also has a thing for black girls. he is /ourguy/
>>215421613Its amazing how stupid he is. He fucks up every single thing he tries to do the entire show
>>215421505how did he fuck this up? >>215421613nah, van damme loved cunny
>>215421648>how did he fuck this up?He was helping with her training, he got advice on how to 'neg' her or whatever, he had her in the palm of his hand and then he didn't stick the landing because he's a fucking cocksucking pussy faggot cunt FUCK
>>215420405S tada P tada dbloo K nigga
I think at the end Vic used whatever connections he had left to become a drug kingpin himself, that or full vigilante type serial killer
>>215420852>>215421083based Billings chads
>>215421648more like van ZAMN
>>215421700
>>215421762who wouldn't>>215421758kill yourself
>>215420726Nah. Vic took a job with the Gotham PD and lost his mind and turned into the villain the executioner during a season long story at They drop a few strike team references in.
>>215421812>Gotham PDThat makes me wonder if Strike Team would've survived in Gotham City, given they'd have an active vigilante or Jim Gordon to worry about
>>215421743>>215420726I believe he killed himself in his charger that night.3 years of this shit then off to prison because your immunity is over, a fate worse than death or instant incarceration.
>>215421849Batman would probably be too busy dealing with Joker, Mad Hatter, or Rupert Thorne to pay attention to Vic & Friends but they'd definitely have run ins with Penguin or Black Mask
>>215420852Billings planted CP on a sex offender that moved into his ex wife’s neighborhood.
>>215421613One of my favorite running gags on the shield is when they kick down a door and there’s some ghetto slut getting railed
>>215421978thats a cool thing to do. fuck pedos
>>215421952>3 years of this shit then off to prison because your immunity is overwut, thats not how immunity works
>>215421963I think it was the mad hatter that turned Vic into a super villain. I forget that show was stupid wierd sometimes.
>first watch>dutch scenes are boring>rewatch>dutchkino
>>215422025You're right, I'm retarded.>If transactional immunity expires, it may no longer provide a complete shield against prosecution for the specific offense covered by the original grant. While transactional immunity, or "total immunity," provides a blanket protection against any future charges related to the testimony, its expiration would depend on the specific terms of the agreement. It is important to understand that in many jurisdictions, especially federally in the United States, transactional immunity is rare and prosecutors offer use and derivative use immunity instead, which does not expire but can be revoked if the agreement is violated or if the witness commits a new crime.
>>215422025They had him on a million technicalities. If he gets fired or disciplined at his desk job it nullifies the deal. And HR lady pretty much told him they’re going to ride him till he fucks up. I don’t know how the government works but HR is generally not involved in office tours once hired.
>>215422056Claudette is such a huge bitch it ruins many Dutch storylines
>>215421849>"Vic, isn't trusting Sionis here a bit of a risk? I mean he wears a skull mask all day!">"Don't worry about it Shane, we just go in, tell him what we know about GCPD tracking his shipments, five minutes in and out"

>>215422614whats with that fucking costume? he looks like the fat cenobite from hellraiser
>>215422650you have to understand gotham is like adam west batman with tim burton aesthetics
>>215422668Ya I forgot that was intertwined with will smiths husbands story line which is Gotham at its worst
>>215422713will smith's husband is in Gotham? will smith married a man?
>>215422713her second storyline was the worst, she started out okay as just another goofy themed gangster
>>215415868It's fun, well written, has one of the best endings in all of TV, people actually act, It's edgy, raw, badass.
>>215421762Are you fucking retarded, anon?
>>215415868>SCHLOCKthe most reddit word in the universe
>>215422735Jada pinkett smith had a universally hated role on the show much like Will hates having sex with her unless a strap on is involved
>>215407794The GOAT TV show
>>215415868It's fun and it's very well written so dunno where "schlock" comes from.If you're a Wirefag kys, now THAT show is mediocre for sure.
>>215423025nope, I would actually have sex with her
>>215423142DUNNO GOT DAT DUNNO
>>215420405hell yeah
Aceveda only had to suck, so why did the faggot swallow?
>>215424617the guy had a gun to his head, probably demanded he swallow
>>215407794So...Shane is almost definitely going to Hell, right?
>>215424931Ninth circle is reserved for traitors and he betrayed his family, and Lem. So yes
>>215424900Imagine being such a faggot that the first thing you think to do when holding a gun to another man's head is making him blow you.Why are gangbangers such unironic homos?
>>215425096because they are very stupid sadists who value hurting others above all else
>>215410867I have a hard time thinking Vic would've killed him when after he found Lem was someone's victim he became extremely one track minded on catching Lems killer
>>215420370Fuck I forgot about this scene
>>215422056Dutch and Claudette parts are underrated, especially any case that doesn't get solved til later
>>215419983>>215425446two of the most iconic scenes in /tv/ history
>>215422614Wow that's a lot better than the episodes I saw in the first season.
>>215425497both mogged by the bonfire scene in breaking bad, i fear
>>215420463>randomFrom nearly a century, a quarter of the homes in America had a Sears organ in them. My home had that exact model. I'm positive they framed it to evoke nostalgia of when those neighborhoods were white.
>>215423142>very well written>oops dropped that NOI storyline inexplicably>oops the one about the drop weapon ended up with the gun back in custody>oops a public employee in california doesn't have health insurance
>>215425767bonfire scene?
>>215410867vic fucked over ronnie. speaking of ronnie, its weird hes just a background character almost the entire show and has almost no dialogue.
>>215426092Dude can't act
>>215415868back to pleddit faggot.
>>215426092I like how the 4 original strike team members are so different. Vice is the leader everybody follows, shane is wild card dumbass, lem is the sensitive one and ronnie is the quiet secretly most competent one
>>215425883
>>215426205oh, that song. I was thinking about a scene that had an actual fire in it
>>215417117>>215417222This. Claudette had a God-tier IQ.
>>215417117Hank from breaking bad
why is he literally me bros
>>215426463because your wife also cucked you
>>215425623It stays pretty hit or miss from there. Having the Gotham jokers story arc probably saved that show but it did get better.
>>215407794Walton was often the best part about that show, unless it was an episode jews wrote him doing something retarded.
>>215427760but those episodes were hilarious
>>215420803lmao based billings
>>215421613>the most racist cop in LA>his 18 year old mistress
>>215426191I really wanted s standalone Ronnie scene in the last season showing him before work being extremely meticulous like making his coffee or something
>>215420364that's why he looks so familiar
>>215426463
>>215426463no one ever mentions the scene where he breaks the cats neck
>>215415868You're not wrong but it's still an entertaining showSome boards just have a weak spot to certain shitty things nothing wrong with that
>>215428298>its a "i need to get into the mindset of a killer, therefore i should torque this little kitty's neck" episodei still like dutch but he should have really gone out and killed someone like a prostitute or something
>>215428298>>215428432we were robbed of sutter's true ending for dutch
>>215428597>its a "deutcheboy" becomes the most bestest serial killer in farmington and billings is hot on his tracks storylinenow that would have been character development!
>>215428597>Hey, Dutchboy, once you've finished 'getting intimate' with the local wildlife we've got a case to solve
>>215410841He didn't say that.
>>215428923>he didnt see when shane dropped a live grenade like a hot potato onto lem's lap then lem looking up to see a shane-shaped silhouette of dust accompanied by a "pew" sound
