We are enormously proud of Southland, which stands as one of the best police dramas ever made. We wish everyone associated with Southland the very best.

mother frick!

well, I guess I kind of felt like this season would be it. I didn't really like the way they shaped Sherman's arc, it ended up becoming kind of outlandish. He goes from wide eyed, idealistic, do-gooder rookie, to Alonzo frickin Harris from Training Day in less than 3 seasons.

Also killing Cooper off wasn't promising as far as the show having a future.

It was fun while it lasted. They squeezed 5 seasons out of a show that we all thought was dead to rights after 6 episodes of a first season.

tonight I pour out some liquor though. RIP Southland. RIP!

Yeah, that may have been a stretch but he was one hell of a dirty cop this past season. He basically had his partner's house burglarized and his partners son's life in danger as a result. In real world cop society, his arse would be grass and many cops would happy to be the lawn mower.

He also shite where he was eating by banging one of the ese's hoodrats.

Cooper deserved better than that for sure.

I need to watch the first season sometime soon. I can barely remember it.

That's what I'm saying. I mean everything we're taught about his character in the first 2 seasons, all the way up to him turning in John for having a pain pill addiction because it was "the right thing to do." I mean, he goes from integrity being EVERYTHING, doing what's right, even if it meant turning on his fellow officers like Serpico, to 2 full seasons later he's banging cholas and then punking her brother while kind of subcontracting them to do his dirt. and that was just the tip of the iceberg for how bad his character was becoming. If there would have been a season 6, he for sure would have been in plain clothes, wearing a black leather jacket and skull cap, driving a tricked out black monte carlo with hydraulics and training some punk arse rookie in the art of robbing drug dealers while simultaneously forcing him to smoke sherms. Oh and he'd be into the Russians for an unGodly amount of money while trying to sell his partner to the same essays that lives with the chick he's banging while he "figures shite out."

Damn this sucks. I guess keeping a series alive on TNT is asking a lot anyway though.
