What's the story on this show? Is "The Commish" supposed to be a dirty cop or something, or is he just a hard nosed cop that isn't afraid to break a few rules (like Sipowitz)?

Rent the first season at your video store & check it out in order. This & "24" are the only two shows I watch on regular tv.

Best show ever.

EVER.

I have Season 1 & 2 DVDs, and have season 3 preordered, will arrive soon. Fantastic storylines, excellent acting, mostly from actors you've never heard of. I can't wait for season 4 to start, but I am worried that Glenn Close will ruin it.

Interested to see how Glen Close does with Vic, it should be a good season.

And what the other guy said, it Rocks.

I stopped watching it during the first season when Mackey and his crew murdered a fellow
cop that was recruited by internal affairs. That was too over the top for me. Ruined a great TV
series in my book. Haven't watched it since.

Gunner1X... wasn't that one the first episode??

That incident has come back to haunt Mackey & crew in the seasons since... Over the top? Maybe, but it was a helluva way to set the stage.

The Shield ROCKS.

How the hell would you know if it was a great series since you admit to stopping watching it midway through the FIRST EPISODE?

Vic always winds up boneing every chick on the show, I sure hope he doesn't get nasty with Glenn Close.

My favorite show, I never miss it.

I already downloaded the first two episodes of season 4.

The opening scene of the new season involves a dog.

Already leaked? Wow.

Something I've wondered for a long time now -

Do Lem and Ronnie know that Vic and Shane killed that cop way back on the first episode? They were out of the room when it happened, and Vic never talks about it with them, as far as I have seen. I get the feeling that they don't.

It's my favorite cop show hands down.
