90% of the shows i like started off bumpy, including 'the shield'....after the ending of the first 'shield' ep, i was like "sheesh, how can they possibly make a series out of this?", and shows how right i was, lol...


I can't understand anyone not being blown away by the pilot episode of The Shield. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Part of my problem with SOA was that I had high expectations - Sutter both wrote a lot of Shield episodes, plus played the best bad guy in the run - Margos.

But, I can't stand to watch Charlie Hunnam another minute - so SOA probably wasn't for me.

As an example from The Shield, as much as I didn't like Shane Vendrell, I don't intensely dislike Walton Goggins. The only actor I came close to disliking in The Shield was Cathy Ryan (Corrienne Mackey), and she wasn't on screen nearly as much as Jax.

oh, i enjoyed the pilot ep....but given the circumstances of what happened in it, i wasn't convinced vic mackey would be able to carry the load for an entire series. yet he did, and dare i say, we probably even rooted for the guy on occasion....

i grew to "like" (relatively speaking...he IS still a repeated felon, after all) jax, as long as he doesn't share the screen with tara, lol...
