oh. oh. oh. oh. oh.
I forgot how much I love The Shield. It is the only show that I watch with an underlying anxiety, all teh time. It's so fast and visceral and angry and unpredictable. I remember watching with Kavanaugh and being scared, and then with Lem, OH LEM. The show is just so alive. Which is an unfortunate line to put right after Lem, but even so.
And tonight. Oh Shane. He's so little and just react reacts reacts all the time. His whole life is just having to fix one thing after another and it's all for Vic and he's living on energy and fear and it's all for Vic and Vic's gonna kill him. Oh Don't let Vic kill him. He won't really will he? If he kills Shane it will destroy him, and there'll just be cold Ronnie left and.
And it makes me so sad that the Strike Team are so shattered and apart when it has always been about them and their
And tonight Shane hid behind a drinks machine and was small and fast and stupid.
And Dutch. Dutch is wrong. ALL the time I think he is evil and scary and so wrong. I remember his freaky cat strangling even if none of the writers appear to. He is scarier than Vic. And there's that zombie police cop woman person who is all so wrong and flirty with Dutch and I can see them being freaky serial killer lovers. I hope that Danny gets rid of her.
Ronnie did things too. He was actually present - and I love that they remember his scars. Well done The Shield for remembering his scars. He actually did things, and then looked deep into Vic's eyes. But even if he's the only one left Vic will never love him as much as he loves Shane. (And I'm not even being shippy, even though I could, very much, whenever you want. But Vic needs Shane and now he's gone...)
And he caries a photo - and even if he pretended it was to identify Shane,he was carrying it and looked at it, and he didn't rip it just folded it. It was a photo of The Strike Team as it was. It really is sad that it isn't.
The whole thing, the show has just been to tear them apart and now Vic has nothing left - just pety games over his badge and a family that don't trust him and no Lem or Shane.
And Shane's wife is being trouble again too.
And I haven't mentioned Claudette who was great and Aceveda who was Aceveda-ish
Oh I do love the Shield.
