I completely forgot how much the show was the team fucking up and then setting other people up. I dont think a show like that about cops could even come out today.

It'd absolutely be lambasted as "woke anti-cop propaganda" if it premiered this year

I like it more than The Wire tbqh. I love that what happens in the first episode carries wake throughout the entire series, up until the very last episode.

It's a lot more flawed than the Wire I think in terms of plotting and it really could've benefitted from more setup, but it definitely has one of the most well executed endgames of any show ever

I feel The Wire had a better overall cast. Im reminded of Dexter with The Shield in that the main cast doing the fucked up stuff was the most fun part and when they go to the side characters it kind of drops off.

I watched all of The Shield and really liked it. Switched off The Wire after an episode and a half. I know everybody raves about it but it was just doing nothing for me.

The Shield is probably my favorite show and easily has my favorite finale to a series.

Currently rewatching The Wire. Great show, too, but very different.

Yep. So much planted evidence happens in that series.

I rooted for Vic every step of the way. The only thing I didn't like Vic doing is letting Ronnie go down.
