The Shield

How I spent Labour Day was that I "pulun" all the way Season 6 of The Shield. I missed watching The Shield on AXN. So it was catch up time. Plus watching the uncensored version beats the hell out of watching the tamer version.

As the tagline goes, The Road To Justice Is Twisted. Not sure if you do watch The Shield, but few years back, this group of bad cops robbed a shit load full of money from the Armenians. And what I learnt from this show is that, the past do come back to haunt you. Here in Season 6, the Armenians put a death order on them and their families. So lesson learnt. Don't commit evil misdeeds as the past has a bad habit of creeping back at you.

Anyway heard that Season 7 currently on air in US will the the last season. From the way I looked at it, its logical since I dont think how the writers can progress the show anymore by giving viewers fresh storyline.

To those who fancy watching bad cops knowing how to put their conscience at the right place and at the right time, watch the rogue cop Vic Mackey and his team do their thing. Its like watching the extended version of the movie Training Day by Denzel Washingon and Ethan Hawke.
