>decide to watch it for the memes>it turns out to be absolute kino
>>219886583They made you.... suck?
best tv show along with sopranos wire and mad men, any other answer is wrong
>>219886583WHAT ABOUT THE TEAM VICK! HUH? WHAT ABOUT THE TEAM….
>>219886583It has pretty low meme potential but it is kino.
SPOOOOK STREEEEET
It's pure kino
>>219886703>It has pretty low meme potential but it is kino.
>>219886583I like the format where most episodes feel filler but then they also sprinkle in main story arc stuff every now and then
>>219886890It's one meme and maybe 2-3 more, that's low meme potential. Compare to sopranos, literally dozens.

I think the first 4 or 5 episodes turn a lot off. then the kino begins. granted ep1 is good
>>219886929For me S1 was kinda hit or miss for the most part, but I've learned to like it more during rewatches, it's the most innocent season and has a sense of humour that the others don't. Then S2 has two of the most memorable arcs in television almost out of nowhere, see Armadillo and the money train heist. My favorites are S4 and S5, but the series as a whole is amazing and the ending is probably the best I've ever seen.
I framed a guilty man...
>>219887033Yeah. I first thought of it as some sort of Law n Order show. But like episode 5 or 6 it starts to pick up and build character. Basically gets better as it goes on imo
How do I get a woman loyal to me like that couple who kidnapped a girl and was hiding her? Seriously how did that bald faggot do it?
>>219886915Billings is even more memeable than Paulie
>>219886583I can't watch this show again. It ends so fucking dark. By all accounts the show should've ended horribly. A hugely convoluted final plot that stretches 3 seasons back, a bunch of conflicting characters, and a need from the audience to deliver higher and higher stakes. But somehow they do it.
>>219887287Yeah seasons 6 and 7 get depressive as fuck, but that's the beauty of it. A slow burn designed as a packed action fast paced show.
>>219887318>>219887287There are some shows I like more overall but to my memory nothing compares with the denouement of The Shield. And of course it already had so many impactful, gut-punch moments in the preceding seasons. Such a good show.
>>219886915>Vic, can you get me off the hook? For old times' sake?
>>219886583welcome to the strike team rookie
>>219887778He did it so he can be gay in prison
>>219887287the entire Shane downfall arc would be too painful for a rewatch.
>GODDAMMIT DUTCH!
>>219886583
>YOU!
We really don't discuss what a sick fuck Dutch is enough. The show plays it so straight - he has to watch all the cherry popping videos to find the girl...then he checks out a department laptop for additional "research". He wants to be a master detective with insight into the mind of a killer, so it's totally ok for him to strangle a cat to death at 3am in his underware. Guys a sick fuck and I'm glad Hyatt cucked him
>>219888060>possesionThe heroin was most likely planted in my car by one of the many gangs that fucking hate me for busting them. I did not put it there. You did not ever record me interact with it in any way, you only found it in my car with me absent. >intent to distributeLiterally zero proof.Lem could get away with it, easy.
>>219888225Emolia saw him taking it tho
>>219888225Wouldn't lems prints be on it?
>>219888271>sawShe was associated with the Salvadorans, not credible.>>219888326That's a better point, I don't actually remember if Lem wore gloves when handling it. Though given organized crime is involved, and Lem handled keys as evidence before, could possibly be handwaved away too.
