A friend of mine lent me Series 1 of The Shield some time ago. I tried watching the first two episodes but frankly it didn't interest me that much.
Last week, with F*ck all on the telly (again) the missus and I had another crack at it. What a show. Yes, the bad language is almost incessant, yes the street slang is (sometimes) indecipherable, but once you get into the characters it bites down hard and doesn't let go.
Funniest scene so far is when McNulty and Bulk are investigating the cold case shooting of a young women. They enter the crime scene and go about their measurements pertaining to the photographs taken at the time. All the way through the only phrase they say is ''Oh, feck''
Doesn't sound funny? I suggest you should (mos' def') watch the episode.

Yep, Hackney boy Idris Elba, to go along with Yorkshire boy Dominic West, aka Jimmy McNulty. Those two are brilliant in it. Says a lot when you don't realise an actor isn't from the country he is pretending to be until you are told/look it up.Bruno wrote:Up there. I thought the most recent one (4) was nothing special, but 5 is back to the Seinfeld story, so I'm looking forward to that.
I had no idea Stringer was portrayed by a Brit...

Have you ever seen the interview Ricky Gervais does With Larry David!? Pure tv gold! I have a DL of it, not sure how I can share it though?
favourite CYE moment: when he is stuck on the chairlift with the Jewish doctors orthodox daughter, and he finally admits defeat in trying to adhere her to him… “what are you, fukkin nuts!?” and she jumps off!!! Hahahahaha…
