No onion rings. No botched attempt at parking cars. No Journey soundtrack. No cut to black. Shawn Ryan delivered on his promise that Vic Mackey would get a proper ending. And it's exactly what he deserves. A veritable purgatory, if you will. Call it »»
In 2002, FX, a then up-and-coming network, were looking to corner the market for basic cable scripted dramas. Taking a risk, they unleashed what is now considered to be a landmark series, and one of the most innovative and original police dramas ever »»

They wrung so much humanity out the characters tonight, on top of keeping the tension at a serious high. With Shane on the run from the law, fingernails were chewed to the quick wondering when - and if - he was going to get caught. It's a testament »»
There's no turning back now. Two cops who've bent, broke, and obliterated the law to obtain their own needs with the aid of their badges are no longer cops. With only five episodes left, every little misdeed Vic Mackey and Shane Vendrell have done i »»
Before I start this missive, it should be noted that the creative minds behind The Shield are obsessed with oral sex (or at least euphamisms for it). Not that I blame them, but that's a different matter altogether. Anyway, I counted at LEAST six refe »»
I suppose last week's episode, Game Face, was the proverbial calm before the storm. Tonight's episode, Animal Control, was a full-on, Gale Force, tearing up the trailer parks of Oklahoma kind of episode! Easily the best of the season so far. Where t »»
I'm all for filler episodes; they act as good bridges between tension, but it's a little late in the series to spend alot of time on faces from the past; scratch that, it's a little late in the series to spend alot of time on faces from the past that »»
Can of worms = Open. So much happened tonight. Let's start small and work our way toward the big revelation that closed the episode. It seems Julien, for all of his hard work in trying to fit in, is doing Vic, Shane, and Ronnie, no good on their li »»
They derived alot - and I do mean alot - of dramatic tension out of just about every single character tonight. Let's start with Danny, who used her blindsided attack back in the first episode of this season to reason with a girl who was kidnapped an »»
This week's episode was fairly quiet; well, quiet in terms of The Shield. We were treated to a smattering of suggestive imagery and various racial epithets, but for the most part, it was alot of running around and barking orders in terms of Vic tryin »»
The Shield' kicked off its final season with every cylinder on fire. Vic and Ronnie gagged Mara (finally, someone shut her up), cornered Shane, and proceeded to kick the stuffing out of him for his kidnapping of Vic's family. Then Shane tells Vic th »»
Well let's get down to this never ending month of TV DVD sets then shall we? There are more for your viewing pleasure available this week so let's start with those including Heroes, The Untouchables, Everybody Hates Chris, and One Tree Hill. There is more though out there as the origin of the The Little Mermaid is explored in Disney's new release Ariel's Beginning. One of my favorite films of all time is getting the deluxe treatment as a two-disc set of The Nightmare Before Christmas from Tim Burton is on its way. And if you're in the mood for a long weekend then check out film sets from Alice Faye, Errol Flynn, or the extraordinary Takashi Miike. Finally this pits of hell month of August is over and we can hopefully run into some cooler weather next month when we're out picking up our new releases. »»
