And so they started painting themselves into corners, except that they didn't care about that - they just outright ignored anything they'd previously committed to in pursuit of whatever sounded cool *this* episode. New things came out of left field, and old stuff got dropped.

The Shield was an amazing story about Vic Mackey and his two buddies, bending the rules but still kinda sorta serving greater good ...but in the end he turns on both of them to save himself He's left w no friends, no family, and no career In 7 yrs he turned from man to monster

it's nuts that a) the show is not well known as it is and b) they still got to finish the arc
