With the season premiere a week away, I figured it was time for the official post. Let's keep this up the entire 13 week season. To get us started, below is an Entertainment Weekly review of the first two episodes. There are minor spoilers so READER BEWARE!

From ew.com:
Reviewed by Gillian Flynn

Having a bastard as your central character is like having a snake for a pet -- it's really cool at first, but then you wonder whether you can DO much with it. As The Shieldslithers into its third season, I worried: Can a series that opened with Det. Vic Mackey (Michael Chiklis) murdering a fellow officer possibly find fresh angles three years in?


Ohhhh, yes. Season 2 ended with the crooked cop and his crooked Strike Team gazing at the pile of loot they'd stolen from the Armenian Mob. Now they're aiming to lay low -- which, this being ''The Shield,'' ain't likely. By the second episode, some of the cash -- which, it turns out, has been marked -- is already circulating.


The twisted, politicized station house in a fictional L.A. precinct is also offering up myriad intrigues. Capt. David Aceveda (Benito Martinez), elected to the city council last season, decides to tidy up his sullied legacy, and refuses to vacate his position -- promised to Det. Claudette Wyms (CCH Pounder) -- for another six months. The rivalry between Wyms and the slick Aceveda brewed all last season, and I hope -- nay, demand -- to see a showdown between these two soon.


''The Shield'''s writers have always enjoyed fingering around in fragile human alliances, and they've developed a real knack for small kick-in-the-heart moments. Nothing says more about the desperation of closeted Julien (Michael Jace) than when he shrugs off his old partner Danny (Catherine Dent) to jaw with his new macho buddies in blue. And while I'm still smarting from the letdown that was Lanie Kellis, the Mackey-hating civilian auditor who went nowhere last season, I'll forgive the writers in light of their brilliant decision to put smug, needy Det. Dutch Wagenbach on the Armenian Mob case. Jay Karnes plays the guy with the awkwardness of Ducky and the lemony line readings of Paul Lynde, and I can't wait to see his junior high egghead vibe matched against Mackey's knee-jerk jockiness.


Ultimately, the reason ''The Shield'' is one of the best police dramas going isn't just its spiderweb plots, the claustrophobic you're-stuck-with-us camera work, or its antihero, although Chiklis -- who won a well-deserved Emmy two years back -- is just as spooky and weirdly amiable as ever. It's the fact that the program regularly yields even its main characters to baleful Fate: The series hits its most shocking point with the fifth episode, when one suffers a sick-making assault that's bound to have disturbing ripples. It proves that while ''The Shield'' is mining more of its subtleties, it still knows how to dredge up pure nightmare. Grade: A- (This is the grade given in the magazine issue of EW I believe. The online grade says C+.)

I can't wait.

this is gonna be the shit right here. and im watching the rerun right now.

You know it can't be that easy keeping that kinda money a secret. I bet this upcoming season is all about them trying to keep this a secret and having close calls along the way.

January came...no Shield
February came...still no Shield...

Then one Tuesday, I was wondering to myself "When the hell is the Shield coming back? Did they cancel it on the low? Did they premiere it on the low?"

Suddenly, driving back from H'wood, going down Beverly Bl., I look to my right, and on a bus shelter billboard, I see...

"THe Shield....season premiere Tues. March 9, 10PM"

Life became good again.

As of the 30th, those will be two long hours of TV, from 24 straight to the Shield....my girl will hate me.

A game is being developed now for a 2005 release. It'll probably suck because most licensed games do.

Video Game News
THE SHIELD gets game
This ain't no cop rock
Dateline: Wednesday, March 3, 2004

By: PATRICK SAURIOL
By: News Editor
Source: The Hollywood Reporter, Gamespot

Here's something that we didn't see coming, but now that we know about it, makes perfect sense: the rights to make a video game of the FX network's hard-edged crime drama THE SHIELD have been picked up by Sammy Studios. Michael Chiklis, the Golden Globe-winning actor who plays dirty cop Vic Mackey in the series, is in negotiations to lend his voice and likeness to the game. Deals for the same are also being negotiated with the remaining cast members from the series. Developed by Point of View, the third-person game will let players choose from different approaches to taking down thugs and criminals on the streets of L.A., ranging from following the law to the letter to taking bribes, roughing up informants and planting evidence.

Sammy Studios is the publisher behind such titles as LETHAL SKIES II, the GUILTY GEAR titles and SEVEN SAMURAI 20XX, set for release on March 24. The company is aiming for a release for THE SHIELD game sometime in the first quarter of 2005.

And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I want to see Mackey and Dutch partners though, that would add comedy.

not sure if it is going to run this season or next but he mentioned it in an interview w/ one of the kids at www.aintitcool.com

too bad he isn't writing an episode that'd be great (and hilarious)

...i knew 'ass'avata was gonna pull some bullshit...

CCH is the truth, she don't take shit from anybody....

Dutch and his "perfect record" are gonna cause the strike team nothin but problems and he doesn't even know it...

what's ole boy's name?? the black dude (uniform)....anyway, he needs to get his dignity back, fuckin up one of them attackers had to help a lil....

mackey is gonna be more reckless and an implosion of the team is on the way

...i hope the new guy on the stike team drops duke in that episode they previewed....

...spanish woman handin Mackey the towel after tussin with that kid....classic......them fools was watching divorce court en espanol.....the quick deniro impression...classic...

...damn i'm happy this finally came back......i'mma hate when the seasons over


nip/tuck in june?? word.....

>...i knew 'ass'avata was gonna pull some bullshit...

And Claudette knew it too when he asked her if she had other ideas.

Yes he will

Julian needs to step up and do something.

>
>mackey is gonna be more reckless and an implosion of the

He can't be more reckless than he was the first half of last season. He was definitely off his game then. I don't think he'll get reckless, he'll just have to try and stay one step ahead of Dutch Boy.

>...i hope the new guy on the stike team drops duke in that

Tayvon. I was hoping he'd realize they always stopped talking everytime he entered the room. They were doint that isht last season. How obvious can you be.

From zap2it.com:
'The Shield' Returns for Round Three

By Kate O'Hare

The cast, crew and producers of FX's police drama "The Shield" gather to watch the fourth episode of the new season. A screening room-dining hall has been set up with food near the sets at ABC Television Center Studios in Hollywood.

Everyone is there, from creator Shawn Ryan and star Michael Chiklis to guest director David Mamet. Even actors not working that day are on hand. As befits the de facto captain of the team, Chiklis sits front and center.

"Every week, I find myself definitely cast in the role of the veteran and the leader in the cast," Chiklis says. "It's a responsibility, but it's a flattery as well. I just want to lay down a good example with the best work ethic that I can muster and the least diva. Fish rots from the head, right?"

On Tuesday, March 9, "The Shield" returns for its third season -- extended, this year, from the usual 13 to 15 episodes. Its main character, rogue LAPD Detective Vic Mackey, has not mellowed, but he's trying to behave. At the end of season two, Vic and his Strike Team ripped off a money shipment (aka "money train") belonging to the Armenian mob, and the cash is starting to prove almost more trouble than it's worth.

Vic's now under scrutiny, both from outgoing boss and political candidate David Aceveda (Benito Martinez), and his impatient successor, Det. Claudette Wyms (CCH Pounder). Things also aren't going well in the splintered Mackey family, and internal tensions threaten the solidarity of the Strike Team.

Filming this day is an explosive verbal exchange between Vic and Strike Team member Shane (Walton Goggins). Between takes, Chiklis shows off his extensive knowledge of "Monty Python" sketches.

"We're goofy on-set," Chiklis says. "We need it for the tension break. We do some pretty intense stuff all the time, and if we carry it 'round with us, there'd be fistfights."

Unfortunately for Vic, he doesn't get much comedic relief in season three. "At the beginning of the season," he's much more low-key," Chiklis says. "But you can't change the spots on a leopard, can you? As hard as he's trying to play it tight, in spite of himself, he can't seem to manage it."

New viewers might wonder whether Vic is cop or crook. "I think Vic's really a cop," writer-producer Glen Mazzara says. "He does have a moral line. There are things Vic won't do."

Vic doesn't know the money is marked. Of course when the money shows up, Dutch will get a sniff and start following leads.

HAHA I called it!!!

and got damn I'm glad it's back. The crew is up to the same ol' shit, and Aseveda (sp?) is a BITCH. But if I remember correctly didn't the Chief want Claudette to be the new captain? She should go see him and get Aseveda ass up out of there.

When Mackey said "Dutch Boy" this ep, that shit had me rolling, I haven't heard that in a minute.

My Tivo stopped recording the show right after Julian choked the ex fed that beat him down. What happened after that?

Good episode. It was much better than the first. Pretty soon Tayvon is going find out the shadiness that is Strike Team.

Highlight: When Vic suggested that Sticky Fingaz and the Lieutenant in the Biz Lats don't want to handle business in the steel container. In reference to when he did that isht before with Sticky and this other guy (not expecting Sticky to actually kill they guy after spending the night in a steel container).

It continues to build and get better each episode when you think they'll never top last week.

So no that the hundred grand is circulating do you think they'll lift Vic's fingerprints off the marked bills

For tonight's episode.

there are so many little plot lines in each episode. Mackey and his fam, Shane and his girl, the black police officer not trying to get back with the chick police officer, Asevada and the black dectective woman (I'm really bad with names), the strike teams keeps dissing the black dude. These writers sure know how to keep you interested.

I also loved when Mackey was talking to Asevada about the new team and the black detective running both teams, Asevada told Vick that the warrant blew up in his face, the guns were still on the street and Dutch and the BDW stole the strike teams arrest, not knowing that the strike team took care of all that shit, just not in the legal way...

Ole girl wants the Dick from Vic. He should be tappin' that by the end of the next ep.

Highlights:

"Wanna see my badge?"
Dutch Boy putting himself in the lineup.
Ole girl recognizing the politics.
Aceveda pulling the okey doke.

Nicki Micheaux has quickly become a recognizable face on television through her roles as Karla in the critically acclaimed HBO series Six Feet Under and the sexy temptress Lila on Showtime's hit series "Soul Food" (2000). Born into the family of an Army Colonel in 'Motor City' Detroit, Michigan, Micheaux and her younger brother spent a childhood on the move. In fact, she'd have lived in most parts of the United States before she even graduated high school. The family eventually settled in Houston, Texas, where Micheaux got her first taste of the theater. Nevertheless, Micheaux went on to the University of Colorado to pursue a sensible law degree. If you had told her that someday she would be a part of hit television shows and award-winning movies, she probably would have said you were crazy. The acting bug was relentless, however, and while in college, Micheaux appeared in many plays and created quite a successful theater company.

In addition to her unforgettable performances on Six Feet Under and Soul Food, Micheaux has held guest-starring and recurring roles on shows such as The West Wing, ER, NYPD Blue, The Practice, and The District. Micheaux's film credits include Ringmaster (1998), Replacement Killers, The (1998), and the critically acclaimed independent Sweet Jane (1998). Never venturing too far from her stage roots, Micheaux recently appeared in the title role of the Greek tragedy 'Electra'. Nicki Micheaux donates much of her free time to non-profit organizations that are devoted to strengthening the Los Angeles community and spreading a message of humanity and compassion to the world.

I was watching it in a bar that had the rock music obnoxiously loud, so I couldn't hear most of it....

-Explain the sisters in the decoy squad (they both some bad ones, BTW). What was the long-haired one rapping about with Vic? Does she like working for Claudette?
-Why was Vic at that foster home? Who was that boy he was looking at in the upstairs room?
-Is Shane's girl pregnant by him?
-If Paul Fetz (sp?) didn't rape the old lady, why did he go after that one broad near the end?

Also, do they repeat it any other day or time of the week, so that I won't have to do the desperate ish I did last night?

>
>-Explain the sisters in the decoy squad (they both some bad
>ones, BTW). What was the long-haired one rapping about with
>Vic? Does she like working for Claudette?

Aceveda was asking her questions about the "John" she collared. She got the impression that he was a VIP and Aceveda wanted to bury the arrest. She works directly under Claudette, but Aceveda was the big boss. She was asking Vic which "horse to back."


>-Why was Vic at that foster home? Who was that boy he was
>looking at in the upstairs room?

The crack ho that Vic helped out last year with money, babysitting, etc. died and her kid was an orphan. It's her kid that's in the foster home. Vic felt guilty for the ho dying because she was doing CI work for him when she did. So he wanted to check on the kid to make himself feel better.

>-Is Shane's girl pregnant by him?

She said she's pregnant. One can assume it's by him. This fool then asked this girl to marry him after knowing her 2 months. He probably told her about the money train, if not, he will soon.


>-If Paul Fetz (sp?) didn't rape the old lady, why did he go
>after that one broad near the end?

He's one of those rapists who "can't control themselves." When Dutch was interrogating him, Dutch tried to get him to confess by saying his moral compass was broken. The guy was clean for 7 years but since that neighbor told everyone in the apartment he was a rapist. He couldn't control his urges on some, "Everyone thinks I'm a sicko, why disappoint them."


>Also, do they repeat it any other day or time of the week,
>so that I won't have to do the desperate ish I did last
>night?

Sunday nights. 11pm I think.

>>>Sunday nights. 11pm I think.<<<

I turned to it around that time and nip/tuck was on.

So does anyone know what day The Shield is repeated beyond Tuesday?

Playing Tight
Wednesday, Apr 14 - 10:00 PM e/p

Vic and the Strike Team must disarm two rival gangs on the brink of war. Dutch and Claudette investigate a money train robbery and the murder of two Armenian gangsters.


Bottom Bitch
Friday, Apr 16 - 10:00 PM e/p

As Claudette and Vic butt heads over a prostitute determined to bring down her pimp at any cost, Dutch uncovers a disturbing trend of rapes in Farmington. When a fellow politician is arrested for prostitute solicitation, David is stuck between politics and his conscience.

Streaks and Tips
Saturday, Apr 17 - 10:00 PM e/p

Threatened by the newly installed Decoy Squad, the Strike Team puts their reputation on the line as they compete to solve a car-jacking case before their new rivals. While tension builds in Shane and Tavon's already frayed relationship, Dutch gets in over his head without Claudette on an attempted murde

I would love to see more about Dutch...something is very disturbing about him just below the surface there....

Now, what is up w/the black uniform cop and his wife vs. his boyfriend? I know towards the end of last season he got a beatdown at the crib?

Why did his partner get put off the force?

Did Shane kill the prostitute that was Vic's informant?

Another dropped storyline (The Shield is famous for that). As far as the beatdown, he tried to find out who did it earlier this season. And offered the guy a chokehold in return.

>
>Why did his partner get put off the force?

She was accused of being a racist cop by an arab woman who was suing the department.

>Did Shane kill the prostitute that was Vic's informant?

Shane didn't do it.

Which episode was that? Thought I was current

the ending of tonight's episode was out of control

i've never seen a fight that brutal on TV. EVER

That was CRAZY



Then I saw titty

Did Tayvon (sp) die?

>>>Then I saw titty<<<

That's why I'm watching the repeat right now. I wanted to see the long-haired sister flap by.

I would be really surprised if he's alive. His body was pretty messed up on the pavement after the accident.

That was one of the most brutal hand to hand fights I've seen on TV.

...even if he doesn't know it yet....Tayvon may live, but WHY would he have anything againt the other members of the team??

>...even if he doesn't know it yet....Tayvon may live, but

I would think that Claudette would take more pleasure in doing that, especially the way Vick and her clashed in season two.

good ole dutch boy will do it by accident, and claudette doesn't give a fuck about the strike team long as they stay outta trouble..she showed that this episode...she might make some strides against them tho, just nothing that's too successful..

> she might make some strides against them tho, just nothing that's too successful..

I think this all depends on how much Aceveda continues to piss her off. In the second season, Claudette and Vic has some serious friction though.

>...even if he doesn't know it yet....Tayvon may live, but
>WHY would he have anything againt the other members of the

For starters Vic is Shane's best friend. Obviously Vic's not even going to crack down on Shane like he normally would because his attention is refocused on the money train cash. This pisses off Tayvon who wants revenge on not only Shane but the whole crew.

Trust me I'm good at predicting this shit look up at thread #39

>and be the biggest thorn to ever sting the Strike Teams ass

I disagree. If Tayvon dies, the strike team will be all white again and that will be a heavy disadvantage to Vick since Claudette and Aceveda are both his superiors now. I am curious if Vick acually likes Tayvon as a cop and not because his can play Tayvon as a race card to his superiors.

Did you know that Tavon is the son of former Celtic Jo Jo White?

vic loves him cuz hes down with the streets man, not for the superiors, he helps the strike team a lot, the thing i love about vic's character is how he gets people to love him so much, like tayvon sayin, he has plans for me man, shane gets all defensive, its great, i hope tayvon isnt dead, hes the "coolest" character on the show hands down

And bled like a pig when he was driving down the road. So he might have died before the accident. Then again, maybe he was all passed out and could be saved....who knows?

hes gotta be dead, nobody lives thru that

classic shit

the camera phone with the picture is still out there too....damn

>the camera phone with the picture is still out there

Dutch puts one and two together and figures out Aceveda was raped.

no man ever wants to encounter in life, dude wouldve had to put a bullet in my head, this season is really startin to heat up, mad story lines goin....

So many story lines out there:

1) The pervert raping old ladies all over town. How can you do that isht?
2) Money Train Money is out there and now the Feds and Aceveda know about it?
3) Tayvon
4) Shane: He must really love that girl. He probably told her about the money train.
5) Aceveda: That camera is out there and having a camera phone picture (Hello Moto) of you sucking another man's dick doesn't do much for your political career. (Side Note: This probably wouldn't have happened if Vic didn't make that guy suck the glass dick to begin with.)
6) Other miscellaneous storylines still out there:
a) Vic's crazy daughter.
b) Julian: The perpetual "Am I gay or straight?" storyline.
c) Home gurl on Decoy Squad: When will Vic hit that?

he prolly would of had to shoot the shit outta me. i bet he fucks them up later in the season. oh and how much you wanna bet that the phone pic they took will save the strike team from getting in trouble with the money train? i.e. blackmailing acevada

....that all of us who watch are most partial to?

Everyone else can instantly sway us one way or another, but there's nothing out there that can make us dislike Vic...

....unless you guys got something?

Assisting in the Tayvon cover-up maybe?

You'll always be pulling for him no matter what he gets himself into

He shot and killed another cop in the very first episode of the show.

We still like him after that so that pretty much means nothing will turn us against him....unless he's the one raping old ladies.

Aceveda is going to have to track down that picture B4 anybody else finds it or his whole shit is finished:acreer, family, character, etc. This can go so many ways now. He could act like all is cool and the picture somehow begins circulating in the station and leaked to the press, causing him shame; he could snap, find who did it and beat the shit out of them, or somehow Vic will find out and use that as leverage to clear his name from the money train deal. Either way, this poses some interresting story possibilities.

Best cop series since Homicide (which is still #1)...

But that was some disturbing shit. I'd take the bullet...

they've been teasing us with that shit since season one. Aceveda is always going to need Vic but the minute his issue is resolved it's back to ball busting until the next insident.

LOL

>>>But that was some disturbing shit. I'd take the bullet...<<<<

I can't get the image out of my head...he must have really loved living to go out like that....talk about being b--ched.

I got a bad one though: What if that was Julian in that same situation?

was hilarious...you ain't gonna BS Vic...I guess they forgot who they are dealing with....and ol girl shoulda just shut up, but she's all weak "I was doing laundry in the basement" Vic: "Oh really, lights or darks?"....love it

You gotta have your mind right to watch The Shield though..they are rawer than the Sopranos right now.

>Vic: "Oh really, lights or darks?"....love it
>
>You gotta have your mind right to watch The Shield
>though..they are rawer than the Sopranos right now.

It's whites or colors but yeah I got your point

...when they noticed Aceveda looking up at the camera?

They bust a run like ni--as stealing 40s out the liquor store.

*pyoon!* (that's a ricochet noise)

And oh yeah, I'm happy Tayvon lived, though I still smell a kill-off....

>...when they noticed Aceveda looking up at the camera?

That was classic! They were out with da quickness!

I been lurking and mentally cosigning for a while so I decided to step up to the plate on this ep so here it goes.

-first of all there was a lot of white girl ass in this ep, Vic's wife, ho in the blue house (have DVR had to run that ish back a couple of times to make sure of the geometry of the ass)

-Tayvon is a fighter he gone make it but nobody cares

-Aceveda still got that bad taste in his mouth... thumbing through mug shots all damn day. Don't he know that picture can be on a 100 different phones by now? Go home get some sleep.

-Seein dude on the strike team kickin it with the homo pro's on the corner with his shirt wide open and talkin about cars was perfect.

-Vic's former bone droppin dime on him and her ex-partner was effed up I didn't think old girl had it in her.

>-first of all there was a lot of white girl ass in this ep,
>Vic's wife, ho in the blue house (have DVR had to run that

I couldn't believe that was his wife in the close up

>-Tayvon is a fighter he gone make it but nobody cares

this will come back to haunt not only Shane but Vic as well. I said it before but no one heard me.

>-Aceveda still got that bad taste in his mouth... thumbing

Literally a bad taste

>-Seein dude on the strike team kickin it with the homo pro's

>was perfect.

Shane's got his coming

>-Vic's former bone droppin dime on him and her ex-partner
>was effed up I didn't think old girl had it in her.

And Aceveda doesn't got her back. she's gonna need Vic soon and things will then get interesting.

acevada is fucked up though. shit, i think he is gonna flip out and go postal. although i cant blame him.
i am hopin vic taps that decoy chick, shes fine!
i want tayvon to live, cuz its gonna be interesting to see what happens if he remembers any shit. shane would be fucked up then.
i like how they are carrying on the dutch/claudette story with the rape victim to more than one show, b/c it keeps interest in their characters.

Dutch is very overzealous about the rape victim case. The fact that its being drug out and Dutch is acting like he knows the guy and his abliity to emotional connect with sex offenders (the whole moral compass speech)makes me think he knows more than he's telling. Think about it,he doesn't have a girlfriend, he put his schlong in a rape suspect line up and showed it to Claudette (the blue meanie as i like to call her ie:Yellow Submarine)like he wanted her to look at it, and on the last episode he said he went looking thru windows to see what the suspects MO is. Come on, this foreshadowing of things to come.

In season one he hooked up with the wife of an unsolved murder victim. They broke up the Strike Team and he partnered with Shane for a day who told him about the benefits of victim seduction or something like that.
Dutch referred to her a couple of times last season as well. I don't think they'd leave that hanging like that.
"Ernest Hemingway once wrote, the world is a fine place and worth fighting for. He was right about the second part."

notice that? He knew once his face got on TV, dude that he gave brain would know his starture and either black mail him or put him on blast...

I have the feeling I will be on angry black guy mode when Vic and that female undercover cop hook up. Ugh.

...that Julian and Tony are more than just partners on the job. They are on the down low or something. Dude was mad when Danny(former partner) tried to pull the mother role on him. I think they are fellow "bone smokers" as Shane likes to say and they or Tony (acting only probably)had them whacked so they could be together. It was obvious he was not surprised they were killed, not to mention Julian didn't shoot the dude that did it.WTF? Plus Tony was real clear that he did not have a girlfriend. How many more clues do you need.

im goin against the grain, not only will he remember, he will claim not to to protect the strike team because he is a very loyal dude, this will prove to them how real he truly is and he will stay on the team, i could be way off, but i can c it happening and i hope it does

I told you Dutch was a perv. Kiddie porn research,huh? It didn't work for Pete Townsend and it ain't going to work for Dutch boy either. His card is going to get pulled eventually. Besides that this episode was pretty lame to me. The only good part was seeing Aceveda crack. He needed to be taken down a peg anyways,he was too smug to begin with. He ain't gonna kill nobody though. Unless he wants to rock mics for the rest of his life. Wouldn't that be ironic? Damn, can we at least see how Tayvon is doing,damn!! I can't wait for the next episode,more of Tish or Trish. I just call her Vanessa Blue, thats who she reminds me of.

shane's girlfriend is one THE most annoying characters
>they've had...

Word! I just want something to happen to her! But shes around for a reason. My guess is, first of all, she is not prego or she is going to have a miscarriage or something. Then if that turns out to be the case, she is going to find out about the money train and be a thorn in the side of the team some way or another.

Co-sign. Even if she has the kid I don't think it's Shane's

The way she was getting so pissed about Shane never being around, I thought she might. She seems so emotionally needy that I wouldn't put it past her to at least pretend to attempt it, just to get Shane's attention for awhile.

> My guess is, first of all, she is not
>prego or she is going to have a miscarriage or something.

Yep, cosign!

Or someone is gonna kill her and have to cover it up

Highlights:

Aceveda's brother: "You didn't try to stop him?"

Strike Team: Pulling it out in the clutch. Just when all hope was lost, they took care of business...for now.

Vic: The way he manipulated Nina to hire his guy to crack the safe. Classic!

Nina: That chick ain't no joke. She plays right by the rules. "I called A.I.D."

Lowlights:

Shane's girl: I'm tired of this chick. I'm expecting her to kill herself and the baby. Shane will be broken up until he realizes the baby wasn't his.

Huh:

Vic's wife: At first I thought she was being sincere about not being able to handle the kids...but something about the way she looked at the end makes me think she's running an okey doke on Vic. I think she had a last minute weekend get away with her man and didn't want Vic or the kids to know.

>Highlights:

exactly. shes pullin a fast one, and wants some different dick.

this season just keeps getting better and better. next wks episode is gonna be great.

>Highlights:

>Aceveda's brother: "You didn't try to stop him?"

He sounded like some of you guys up in here. :-/ I think Aceveda shut him down though when he said a gun was held to his head and he was thinking about survival and coming home to his wife and baby girl.

That almost worked out too well. I'm not sure it would've gone so relatively smoothly in real life.

I have to admit that didn't occur to me until I read this. I may have suicide on the brain (lol), but I thought she might get so down that she'd off herself and leave Vic to take care of the kids. That would be an interesting plot twist. But yeah, what you said makes more sense, lol. She sure did put on a good show, though!

Strike team thinks Shane is stealing from the money train. Mackey's got a new woman with a psycho man that'll stick with his woman after she gets torn up at a motel. Vic teaming up with "the enemy" to put Claudette in her place. Dutch clueless as ever. And Aceveda still got the taste of dick in his mouth.

>Strike team thinks Shane is stealing from the money train.

I don't know...I thought Shane was suspected at first, but then they seemed to lean toward Vic. Certainly Ronnie suspects him. Vic did put on a good show in the storage room, though. But I think it may have been a case of, "Thou dost protest too much."

>Mackey's got a new woman with a psycho man that'll stick
>with his woman after she gets torn up at a motel.

That was weird as hell. Looks like Lauren(?) and her man have some kind of weird dominant/submissive-type relationship. The way he marched her down to see Vic, it was like she was a little kid who stole some bubble gum from the corner store and he was her dad making her take it back and apologize to the store owner.

Vic
>teaming up with "the enemy" to put Claudette in her place.

She certainly did get knocked down a few pegs last night!

>And Aceveda still got the taste of
>dick in his mouth.

Yeah, he looked pained when Trish said she'd need an STD test and morning-after pills. That Trish sure is a trooper! Although, what else could she do, really, if she wanted to stay alive?

this show is so good.

I dunno, but I thought the siutation with the Vanessa Blue look-a-like was wrapped up too quickly. I did get a good laugh out of Mr. Chef coming up in Vic's place of work and taking Vic's balls away from him. Interesting to see Julian's prayer sessions or whatever didn't work. This seemed like an episode to establish more storylines.

. This
>seemed like an episode to establish more storylines.


Yup

That Sperm Bank scene was harsh

>I dunno, but I thought the siutation with the Vanessa Blue
>look-a-like was wrapped up too quickly.

Fo'real. Why couldn't we have seen what she was doing before she got in that situation? Didn't they say she was going undercover as a stripper or something? I would have loved to see that more than Julian getting his jollies off at the sperm bank anyday.

Well, I wasn't going for that route with the undercover cop. I meant that with the situation being so serious, I thought they could have stretched it out to a two part episode or something. Instead, it ended too quickly and too neatly in my opinion. I do however think the Julian situation will get somewhat interesting in that he is just closeted and not 'saved' or whatever he was trying to achieve.

Good fucking look!

and her momma

and Aceveda's wife is a horrible human being

All the officers chicks effed them over this ep.
-Vic's chick still payin that dude for teachin her son and doing the do on the side, that dude is pimpin her
-Aceveda's wife, poppin up at work like 3 times a day for the past month trying to pry it out of him. Then turning her back on him when he needs her most, I bet you he was like I shoulda kept this to myself cuz now he has no choice but to do something.
-Shane's bitch, I betcha she ain't even pregnant stealin and sendin her mom's money. Then wantin to know where it came from, she already hurt my dude Tayvon and now this? Two to the temple

she'll tell him in the season finale and he's gon' fuck her up. watch.

haha.

there's something about this show...other than the two female cops, i end up dislikin ery female on the show..just bitches....

mackey's wife....she's got some serious problems....i still don't really understand why she divorced Vic....it wasn't THAT serious...

Aceveda's wife.....not to be funny, but she did EXACTLY what stupid people do in relationships...they wanna know 'everything' and when they find out the truth, they can't handle it...bitches...

shane's fiance....she's gonna end up dead....seriously....she's just a fuck up..it's kismet she found shane, cause normally he's the fuck up...

A's secretary.....i just didn't like how she tried to check him "i don't lie"....yeah right....he gave her this look like, 'get the FUCK outta my office.'...

..i like Julian's wife tho, even iff she's foolin herself thinkin her marrage is gonna work...

....only way they're gonna find out about the rape is if that pic shows up....in the next ep it looks like A played his revenge right...i'm a BIG believer in revenge....i'mma miss the decoy squad....shane is fucked....i KNEW she took that money....she's GOTTA die, her mouth is too big..and she's too stupid to figure out when she's in over her head...i like nothin about her...i HOPE the writers aren't going in the direction i think they are wit Mackey's daughter (molestation), if so it's gonna get really bloody...

Aceveda's wife went to a whole new level of fucked up ness.

Holy Shit.

I saw her taking it pretty badly(screaming, crying, denial).

But that was fucking cold.

Arguably the coldest thing Ive seen on the show, and that takes alot of fucking work.

You catch how Shane's girl's mom seems to be feenin' for Vic? I think Vic is going to hit it, then use that to his advantage somehow. Maybe to lure her into a trap.

Yeah, I think Vic is also going to take care of the "therapist."

Oh, and I also wouldn't be suprised if Shane is thrown a pillow party by the other two members of the strike team without Vic's knowledge.

Was this the half-way mark for the show? The way the music was played at the end of the show makes me think it is.

I can't wait til next week and the week after (cause I think that is when they will show Aceveda get the guy that made him you know...), Aceveda looks like Denzel in Man on Fire for next weeks episode

"Diego everytime I see you you've got your mouth around another clam"---classic

Vic is loosing clout on the streets each week we see more and more Vic doesn't have the control to get what he wants like he used to.

Aceveda is a Politician not a cop. What a bitch move after sucking a dick.

Shane is an even bigger bitch.

Claudette is gonna get the CCH Pounded out of her.....finally she needs to get laid worse than Dutch.

Speaking of getting laid. Jullian you can't get your wife pregnant pounding it in her can.

Will that make the dialog better? I hope the Tayvon storyline will get some attention.

They could have him in traction till the middle of next season pretty much.

Shane's girl has got to go. Shane's going to go nuts losing his child, but still. I'll put one in her and her blackmailing mother.

5 dollars says that picture in the camera will still turn up this season. And his wife needs to get checked, for real. Come home? Shit, get out!

POssible outcomes of any of these story lines:
-The picture gets leaked to the press before Aceveda has another big press conference
-The therapist will get his ass kicked, after he puts a hand on Vic's daughter
-Vic and his wife may end up back together
-Julien is going to get caught with another man. Sad but true. And there will be no baby, no matter how hard he gives it to his wife
-The squad presses Shane to drop kick the bitch, causing to choose between the girl and the team. When he chooses the girl, she fucks him over once more (whatever secret her mom is covering for her daughter will come bite Shane in the ass)
-Somehow, someway, Vic gets the broad from the Decoy Squad in the sack (the Captin Kirk rule, he has to hit everything with a vagina)

PS: While I love the show, it STILL isn't fucking with Homicide: Life On The Streets on a good day. Isn't Clarke JOhnson directing some of The SHield's episodes?

sometime this season and Shane's lady. Maybe even Shane when Tayvon recovers if he recovers

>They could have him in traction till the middle of next

They can and they will.

>POssible outcomes of any of these story lines:

I don't think so. I think this story line is wrapped.

>-The therapist will get his ass kicked, after he puts a hand
>on Vic's daughter

Possible

>-Vic and his wife may end up back together

I doubt it.

>-Julien is going to get caught with another man. Sad but
>true. And there will be no baby, no matter how hard he gives

Julien ain't fooling no body. He's going to give in to himptation.

I can see this happening.

Homicide is the GOAT. Clark Johnson directed the pilot of the Shield and several other episodes. I don't think he shot any in season 2 because he was directing S.W.A.T. He directed a couple this season I believe.

someone please tell me when they show it again, i cant believe i fell asleep.

And don't think you don't deserve a mention just because you didn't make the headlines Dutch.

I think the cases noodle with his dome a little...this dates back to that young chick last season.

Cuddler rapist got in his head for real...detectives are supposed to stay in front of their subjects, not be answering their questions...he allowed himself to get probed.

As far as Vic: I think he finally decided to let Lauren figure her issues out. And he's either going to go back to Corrinne or go after full custody after seeing what he saw at the house. The latter and the former situation are connected, so I'd stay tuned.

Shane clearly wants to prove he's no sucker...and tryna marry old girl right now is clearly an act of defiance to the real that Vic was kickin' to him about having been around way longer than her and being there after she skates. Her mom needs to get dealt with, for real.

That light skinned brother...I've seen him on some show or movie before, without a beard. Anyone know?

Is Terry from the first season?

>That light skinned brother...I've seen him on some show or

He played Julian from A Different World

Yes he gets killed in episode I of the first season if i remember right

I think this has more to do with his ego in the sense that he felt like he failed in truly catching and understanding the dude. Notice how dejected he was when he last talked to the dudes wife. I kind of wish the episode dealt more with Dutch interogating the guy; it reminded me of my favorite scenes so far in the show in Season One when Dutch interogated that serial rapist guy, at least I *think* he was a serial rapist.

Why do you think he needs Claudette so much, saying stuff like "you complete me?" He seems to think more like a student than someone with experience, like he's experimenting too much.

Damn he is losing it. I bet some shit is going to happen soon. He was looking up the kiddie porn "for research" and now this. He is a messed up dude.

My first thought was that Shane was doing it so that she could not testify against him if shit went down. I could be wrong though.

"We make posts go away."

Man I didn't know if dude did it or not even though he admitted to all them crimes. It wasn't open and shut for him, there was really no motive. He admitted to it though and I guess that's what counts.

I know cable series' push the envelope but that is further than I care to go....bye bye Shield it's been nice.

They've called black man nigger and beat the fuck out of him right after.
Rampant abuse of women.
Horrible portrayal of cops, including killing them in cold blood.
Rape of men AND women.

And them killing a cat got you, lol.

Makes me really wonder what he's getting ready to become.

That was clearly his snapping moment.

Notice how loserish he lives too....old as he is staying in some back house...

Clearly all he wanted was a profile from the guy. With him confessing immediately it basically took all the police work out of it, and Dutch is a stickler for getting the guys to break down to their very core(like the previous sex suspect who he effectively broke his therapy and motivated him to go rape again).

All Dutch was doing that day was to trying to get some kind of profile, a 'why'. And the guy refused to be pigeonholed: he was smart, clearly not a psycopath, almost normal dude. You could take him strangling the cat as not him 'snapping' but trying vainly to figure out what was the dudes motivation. All through the interrogation I didn't really get him as going crazy, just confused and wanting to catagorize the dude. The strangling of the cat was an act of desparation and frustration in trying to get the motivation, I don't know if its exactly a jump off to something bigger.

The cat itself wasn't even shown on camera while it was being killed...come on.

in front of gay porn

>I know cable series' push the envelope but that is further
>than I care to go....bye bye Shield it's been nice.

all the crazy shit they do on that show and choking a fuckin cat is what got you?

you need your fuckin head fixed.

raping old women...that's cool
burning people alive....that's cool
pissing on someone...that's cool

choking a CAT? that's not cool.

how retarded does that sound.

In fact, I expected them to pull this off last season till he hooked up with the widow and they dressed it up as him trying to make his name in the paper. I like him, but I hope they don't persue this and make him into some psycho killer.

Shane, surprise surprise, is fucking up. And they need to get rid of the moms, asap, because apparently she thinks its a game.

And where's Devon?

the rest was one ego against the other, dutch trying to prove he 'knows' the criminal mind, and the guy running circles around him....

i think that cat thing WAS dutch trying to get in dude's head...

...Shane and his woman have to be the two biggest fuckups so far, no one else on the show is as dumb as they are....i love how vic checked her though, she should sit her ass down somewhere...stealin money....damn i hate that broad....kinda chick who fucks up a good thing...

the rest...i didn't care....

The Pharmaceutical sales guy that got mustard on himself

n/m

And one other recent role I can't think of.

the intensity is pickin up

last week's ep was kinda weak i quess thats why there are no posts about it. Hopefully things are about to heat up this week since Vic can no longer protect Shane from getting a much deserved ass whuppin' and this money train shit is about to hit the fan. We'll see tomorrow, huh?

I heard Andre 3000 was supposed to be making a guest appearence soon as a pimp or something. Don't know how true it is though. Anybody heard 'bout this?

Tayvon reenters the picture. Its a damn shame dude has no idea with muck will get dug up as result of Shane and his BS. Its nice seeing Vic's home life in total shambles. All the mess dude pulls over other people, its good to see him with problems. My issue though is how duke is able to just shrug the mess off and function as a cop. In the first season dude had a nervous breakdown when his wife left him and the situation at home is worse in my opinion and he shows no signs of it. Maybe there's one too many storylines to show Vic being vulnerable.

Now Claudette is once again cool with the Decoy Squad and everybody will be pitted against Strike team.

That's been a problem this season with storylines getting resloved too quickly and neatly. I'm glad the whole office politics squabble between Claudette and Aceveda is going to get revisited though on the next episode.

I had to chuckle when Claudette asked dude if he ever sucked a dick and the camera went straight to Acevada.

As far as storylines go, the writers come up with some hard core stuff...that whole child porn thing was pretty sick...the sad thing is it probably happens more than people know.

Other thoughts:
- I think Danny will call your boy for a date
- The Armenians are quick!
- And you can't tell me the latin gang (can't remember the
name) won't put it together about the money train.

they should be in it, for challenging the strike team.
what is the tall blonde dudes name in the strike team? clem?
i bet one of them dies this season too...

you can tell he's going to go all wuss on them and probaly sell them out if the fire gets too hot. He must really want to keep his feet. I'm mad they killed your boy Diego, the muff diving mexician, though. Since they cut O'Brian's feet off, you know they know whose responsible. All dude had to say was "a bald headed cop told me to skip town" and its going to come back to Vic. He should grow some hair or something and go undercover.

PS- I love Trish. "Where's my money,black? Mama gotta get low."

i kinda feel bad for Lem and Ronny cause everytime someone fucks up it's NOT them.....Lem is just pissed about Tayvon, and Shane and Vic HAVE been making some bad decisions lately...i'd be pissed too....Tayvon WILL put 1&2 together, and i'm wondering what Vic and Shane will do, and how Lem will help Tay....

my cousin is right tho....on his first impression of ole boy (i always wanna call him 'Adrian'....the uniform black cop) he said, "hater!"...i just laughed, but that nigga IS a hater...

Nice to see Tayvon back, he been inconegro for the past 8 weeks.

Armenian mob is no joke. They been cutting fools' feet off since last year.

It was hilarious how Ronnie was out of the loop about what went down with Tayvon and Shane. Ronnie doesn't get any shine!

Kiddie porn is sick!

Dutch is on the case. This fool just knows where to look but can't ever close the deal.

The strike team has only killed one person (Terry) but they've been responsible for so many deaths (missing feet guys, homeboy in the cargo container with sticky fingaz first season).

The strike team (Vic really) knows how to stay one step ahead. Even when they drop the ball like with this money train money, they've been able to keep the cops off them.

Can't wait for the last two eps:

I see:

Shane's wife/ho/Yoko/whatever she is, getting killed by the Armenian mob.

Dutch boy finding out about the strike team's involvement but no real proof.

Tayvon getting back in the mix and threatening the strike team's plans.

Lem: I don't know about. This stuff maybe getting too heavy for him. He may cut his losses.

Danni letting ole boy hit that. He deserves it. He been putting in some work. This guy is a fence and is openly hollerin' at a cop!

That scenario/case was hard to watch. So disturbing because it's so realistic.

LOL at "Yoko." So true, so true.

I'm worried that Shane and/or Vic will do something to shut him up permanently.

Maybe if Julian would mind his own business! He's getting on my nerves with that. I wonder if Dani went after him after Julian left, or called him later?

Or maybe I feel that way because this season's episodes haven't been that good...I dunno. But just the fact this week's problems didn't get solved neatly within the hour makes this one great. I wonder if peoples that viewed Mackey as likable still feel that way with the way Tayvon was misled. The only good thing I could think about that situation is that the Strike Team didn't have to kill him to cover up their mess.

by burning the stash but how do they go on after that? The only person that really needed it is Vic really. Maybe Shane so he could put a hit out on old girl if she don't come up prego, but he could always take out an insurace policy on dat ass, but we know he ain't gonna do that, big wuss. I wonder if Tay tapped that skinny ass and thats why he was so torn up about what happened or what didn't happen rather.

>by burning the stash but how do they go on after that? The
>only person that really needed it is Vic really.

Lemm only burned some of the cash, not all. And Vic is right about burning the cash not solving the situation. Too many people have died and Aceveda is too hot on their tail for the situation to die down so quickly. In a very weird way, its good Tayvon is out of commission so that his ass doesn't get pulled into the whole mess.

> I wonder if Tay tapped that skinny ass and thats why he was so torn up about what happened or what didn't happen rather.

Uh?

>>>Maybe Shane so he could put a hit out on old girl if she >>>don't come up prego

I am the only wondering when is she gonna start showing? When she told Shane she wanted Vic out of there lives, I just knew she was going to say that she was never pregnant.

Yeah, I'm mad at how they did Tayvon...Dude was crushed. Knowing him, he might tell IAD that he hit her.

Oh well...but next week looks pretty good. I hope Tayvon

Aceveda is on their a**. Dutch opened his mouth. I can't wait for the next episode, the strike team is over. And it was nice to see Shane finally stand up to his lady when she said she didn't want Vic in their lives.

just caught the rerun because i missed it last week.

why is Lem and Tayvon the only one's i'm fucking with right now. and i'm really surprised by Brian White's acting. He stepped it up a whole gang of notches with that hospital scene. Poor fucking Lem and Tayvon man.

phenomenal episode

I can't wait

Looks like Andre 3000 will be hosing down the hoes!

What will happen Tuesday?:

Is this the end of the strike team?
Will Aceveda and Dutch finally catch Vic in the act?
Is Tayvon the father of Mara's baby?
Will Claudette quit her job in a fit of rage fed up with the politics of being a detective (much like Frank Pembleton)?
Will we see other dropped storylines get some half baked resolution in the final hour(like Julian's low sperm count/"Look at me I'm still gay" storyline)?

What will happen?

I am really pissed about the Juan issue gettin' sewn up so quickly. Ace is gettin' too cocky again (no pun intended). Hopefully that picture will resurface again along with the videotape of him going apeshit in the interagation room and be used as leverage to keep the strike team together.Can't wait until tomorrow night.

Something will have me happy after the end of this damn game tonight.

n/m

I wanted Vic to get in that ass on Shane, not the Armenian chick...Shane ain't too long for this world. Damn. 2005 can't get here fast enough.

Me!

I never thought I'd see the day Vic would back down to anything. He had Shane on every point. Should have jacked him.

It will never happen but I'd love to see Claudette running the barn next season.

Dutch was put in his place which was hillarious..."he's responding the same way pussy always resposnds to him, tells him no"

Lem and Tayvon may be back next year together to be Vic's worst nightmare.

Oh yeah and Andre bustin up those drug dealers.

So what purpose do Danny and Julien serve anymore, besides the miss goody2shoes and the token gay guy

hell no. Not after Vic boned her and than she ratted him out to Aceveda.

Maybe Julian though cause he can be persuaded into doing as Vic says

That was proven this season. Vic or one of the others should have given him an eye jammie.

I'm lovin' how old girl said "no, not just thank you....here, have some pu--y." I'm also lovin' how Vic wasn't interested in getting a jim hat out.

He got Margos REAL good though.



In any case, at least my girl can shut up about how bad she thinks The Shield is.
