    The Shield was one of two shows I have ever watched (I am 50) where nearly every episode's writing was perfect. I remember so many times exclaiming at the end of an episode how they nailed the ended. It made me eager to see the next episode. It also, in a time before streaming, was a show that I knew religiously, the continuity of the characters' stories, everything. For them to make a weekly show where we all devoured each subplot and each relationship was artistic. The only other show that I thought compared to it on acting and writing was the HBO show it competed against for Emmy's and Golden Globes. I for one give the edge to The Shield.

    I haven’t watched tv for 10 years. My brother and niece just passed away in December and it absolutely has destroyed me. I try to take my mind off of it so I asked my sister for her Hulu password so I could watch something. Mind you I’ve always been wanting to watch the shield because I used to watch clips of it on TH-cam just like sopranos and the wire. So I’m on S4 E9 and it’s the best show I have ever watched. I’ve already been watching clips farther up to see what happens I couldn’t help myself. I’ve seen what happens to Vic and Shane and Lem. I can understand know how Vic feels losing everything. I know what that feels like. I can feel his pain. I wish I could’ve died with my brother and niece because I’m already dead. I go to sleep every night wishing I don’t wake up anymore. I’m so lost and broken. I can’t believe this happened. This can’t be real. I’ve lost myself in this show and it has helped me. Thank you for helping me ❤️

    David Marciano isn't getting much mention in these comments but I thought he was great as Billings and brought some much appreciated levity to the last few seasons. Watching him and the rest of the cast of Due South on TNT was the highlight of my day when I was house bound after breaking my pelvis in a car accident in late 90s. I love that Marciano played Billings in a couple of episodes of Shawn Ryan's latest show, S.W.A.T. Poor Billings still hasn't found a way to con himself into an early retirement :)

    The Shield was a massive part of my life for 7 years and a pretty big part ever since.
    When I get asked about Shield vs Sopranos I give this personal anecdote.
    Back in Autumn 2009 my wife was pregnant with our first child. I was nervous. And in order to have something that I could judge according to time and let the pregnancy go quicker, I decided in about October 2009 to watch all the Sopranos and all Shield. Alternately. Sopranos one day. Shield the next.
    That lasted until about April.
    I always remember the difference.
    When I'd finished watching an episode of The Shield, I was always blown away, and whilst I loved Sopranos, I always felt like I wanted to watch Sopranos just so I could get to the next episode of The Shield.
    When I'd finished watching a Sopranos episode I was always on a high knowing The Shield was next.
    Sopranos I LOVED to watch.
    Shield I HAD to watch.

    • @Moltisantiproductions

      In my opinion I prefer the sopranos because I found it more consistent but the shield at its best was far better than the sopranos at its best and the ending was much much better probably my favourite ending to a tv show ever.

    • @johnard611
      @johnard611 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I love both shows and first watched them in real time, but it got harder for me to watch The Sopranos the more we got to know the characters. There was some of that for The Shield too, but there was also some hope there that I didn't see on The Sopranos. I recently re-watched both of them and appreciated The Sopranos alot more now that I could more objectively view the characters. But The Shield still hit me so hard and reminded me of how much of an impact it had made on my life.
