Gunny Hartman Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 One of the best and most controversial TV Shows of the past few years is coming to an end. The Shield airs it's series finale tonight at 10:00 EST. It's a 1.5 hour special. I can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ton80Kid Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Thought the end was good...not great though. Not considering the greatness of the show. Left it kinda ambiguous...maybe not quite as vague as the Sopranos, but pretty close...then again with shows like The Sopranos and The Shield, it's really hard to come up with an ending that will satisfy everyone...I mean, the fanbase wants to see guys like Tony Soprano or Vic Mackey get their just rewards for all of terrible things they've done, it's just that the fanbase is split on just what those "rewards" should be...Personally, I liked both shows' endings. Kinda leaves the door open for either of them to return somewhere down the road... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gritzblitz 2.0 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I think it ended about right. You knew someone was going to die, someone would go to jail, and someone would "get away". It was just a matter of who it would be.And while Vic got away in the end, it was made clear that his life would be miserable and riddled with guilt for what he had done.

Self Made Soul Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 The original point of the show was to villify Vic Mackey, but focus groups felt sympathetic to him after the first few episodes. I'm glad that the final episodes portrayed Vic as a horrible monster who is trying to work his twisted form of good will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
