The Shield - Anyone watch the season finale?

**Lzen** · 06-16-2005, 07:34 AM

Watched it and thought it kinda sucked that the Capt. (Glenn Close) got fired. Anyone know if that's just a temporary thing or was Glenn Close just signed on for 1 season? I really like her character and can't stand that Assivada(sp?) asshole.

I was the shield's biggest fan for the first 2 seasons, then I stiopped watching and didn't pick it back up until midway through this past season. It seemed to get better once they reunited the Strike team for real. Can you give me more details on the finale? I liked Glenn's character too. Acevada is an idiot, I didn't care for the character transformation into the whore buyer guy who likes rough sex. they enever should have let him win that election. And Dutch banging Vic's wife? Come on...puke!

Really though, mind sharing a few details about the finale?

You missed it? Well, I could give you a brief or..........

You can catch the replay. I think FX replays it on Saturday night and Monday.

Well, I'll try to watch, but we're moving this weekend and no cable until Monday. If'n I don't catch it, I think I can read the episode guide on the web site. Thanks anyway.

BTW - CD's out tomorrow isn't it?

PastorMikH · 06-16-2005, 08:20 AM

I totaly agree on the Captian. I am hoping that the force rallys for her reinstatement - Vic has tried to get her to stand up and Dutch (suprisingly) turned down her position.

chagrin · 06-16-2005, 08:23 AM

dutch is a friggin goof and only worthwhile in his current role (at least until he started romancin' Vic's wife)

I can give you a rundown if you like. I just thought you might like to catch the replay and see the real thing. BTW, I believe they replay it on Monday night.

What CD is out tomorrow? I'm gonna assume you're referring to Dream Theater's new one. It is out already. It came out last Tuesday and I got it on my lunch the same day.

Of course, it kicks ass. DT never fails to deliver.

Wow, a pastor watches this show.

I thought it might be a little too racey for a man of the cloth.

Hate to ask this on this thread, BUT:

After the transition from 6 degrees to Train of Thought (at least I considered 6 Degrees quite a shift) how does this one rate?

Eleazar · 06-16-2005, 08:34 AM

gah spoiler!

chagrin · 06-16-2005, 08:34 AM

Yeah, forget about the finale, I'll catch it Monday night!

**Baby Lee** · 06-16-2005, 08:40 AM

About the captain;

Glenn Close is off the show. She wanted to participate for a season, but return to her life afterwards. They're sad she's gone, but knew it was a one season deal when they signed her.

Dremel · 06-16-2005, 08:46 AM

Glen Close not comming back for next season staying with daughter who enters a prep school in NY.

Heh heh, I'm highjacking my own thread. Yeah, the new one is much more back to prog. It's similar to 6 Degrees. Train of Thought was their heavy dark thing. They said they got that out of their system. Don't get me wrong, Octavarium does have some heavy stuff in it. But it is a good mix of heavy with other stuff.
