Do you know this man?

Seriously do you know who this man is? If you don't know that this man is Vic Mackey then it's time for you to start watching The Shield. Seriously though this is (in my humble opinion) the best cop drama that I have ever watched. Really what's the pint of watching a cop drama if the cops ain't dirty and they ain't swearing while being dirty?

If you can't find The Shield and Mr. Mackey on your TV, you should be able to find it at your local video store for rental on DVD. Danielle and I have watched the first three seasons and are now polishing off the fourth (only three more episodes to go). Which kinda sucks for us since season 5 is going on right now se we'll have to wait to see exactly what happens.

An interesting development in season 4 was the addition of Glen Close to the cast as the hard nosed former uni (uniformed officer) captain. Now I don't really know what else Glen Close had on the table, but she's doing a pretty good job on the show so far.

So for all your banger and po-po needs I suggest using The Shield as your remedy.

Adam - Yeah, it's a pretty kick ass show eh? I had no idea it is/was Canadian.

Well Laura, I would also reccomend Deadwood Season 1 (which was great but Season 2 wasn't as good, but you probably would want to see if it you've watched season 1) and The L Word Seasons 1 and 2.

Hey Adam, I heard about that WiFi, we'll see if it happens, but I mean a lot of stuff happens here at the centre of the universe.

Dillie: I say the premier of Dead Like me but I wansn't too interested in it. Looked alright but didn't grab me, although first shows are often like that.
