Too bad the writers didn't have Tavon stay on permanently with the ST. He was cool. That was the worst thing that Shane ever did, besides murdering Lem.

I would like to see Shane waking up sweating from nightmares for what he did. Maybe slap the shit out of Mara a few times (unless she really is pregnant) all because he cant deal with killing his "partner".

Some other things to add to my wishlist:
More Antwon - I think that the character is great and that the story really requires that he's back in some way, considering that Vic is going to blame him to an extent for what happened to Lem and he is also the only remaining link between Juan and Aceveda (and this plot has to return).
An idea that I had is that perhaps Antwon starts putting pressure on Aceveda to stop the DOC investigation that Kavanaugh launched or he'll talk about Juan. Aceveda is terrified about Antwon talking about Juan, but getting involved in stalling an investigation into a prison would hurt him politically, so he takes advantage of Vic's hatred of Antwon (as I recall Aceveda is aware the deal between Kavanaugh and Antwon due to Lem and Becca's allegations) and somehow manipulates him (remember that Vic still thinks that Aceveda was on his side against Kavanaugh) into setting Antwon up to die in prison. Aceveda using Vic to further insulate himself from Antwon's murder would show that he had learnt from his mistake of enlisting Antwon to kill Juan (as Vic mentioned to him the visiting records at the prison looked very suspicious). It would also harken back to the theme of Aceveda using Vic to do his dirty work that was established in the pilot episode with Aceveda getting Vic to beat of Dr Grady.

I have nothing so elaborate. I just wish for a great next two seasons!! Also, I'd like to see Lem's family--someone--at the funeral. I want to see Ronnie get some real action, too. And, believe it or not, I am ready to see more of Mara... now that I hate Shane *more* than I hate his wife!

I wonder how long it will take Vic to figure out it was Shane.

I wonder how long it will take Vic to figure out it was Shane. Good question. I think it will be the second half of the season but before the season finale. This will give time to really have Lem's death investigated, bullshit to be thrown around, and the truth to surface. By it not being the season finale, it will give closure (and I use that term very loosely) to Lem and set up the final season. Just an initial gut feeling.

... The strike team was Lem's family I would like to see Vic working with Dutchboy to solve Lem's murder. I don't think Billings plays a big enough role to partner Dutch in this. I would really like to see Vic pin EVERYTHING on Shane that Lem confessed to, sending Shane to his demise with Antwon Mitchell, Antwon would love to get his hands on Shane. I would like closure on Lem's death with his funeral, but given that he died a fugitive, what sort of funeral would they give him? Shane attending the funeral and paying his respects would be sickening to watch. Ronnie's character seemed to develop a little in the last half of s5, we got to see a more emotional side of him - his comment to Danny about the baby being a boy... I'd like to see Ronnie brought up to speed on everything, maybe little by little figuring things out for himself until he see's Shane for what he really is and for what he did, maybe he leads Vic and Dutch to Shane.... I'd like to see Shane suffer as much as possible. It is funny that most people would like to see Ass-invader and Kav go down, or be 'got' in some way. It is the way the show is portrayed and revolves around the strike team. Most people want to see Vic and the team succeed, to get out of trouble, to come up smelling like roses. These are the bad guys!!! Don't get me wrong I love to see how much shit they get into and how they get out of it. It's like Acevada said, Vic creates his own luck. While Acevada is by no means a good guy himself, I would like to see Vic get something over him, be able to use him as a pawn somehow. As for Kav, great actor, he's only doing his job, he's a "good" guy, ok, so he was hunting down a character we all love, but his final scene with Lem, he told Lem that if he was ever in a fight, he'd want Lem in his corner, wouldn't we all?!!! I would like to see Kav phased out - maybe brought back to bring down Shane later in the season. The Claudette/Dutch team has always cracked me up. I'm sorry to see them split up.... I love Dutch's 'you've got to be shittin me' catchphrase. I'd like to see Claudette struggle with Vic, the way their characters already grate against each other I'd like to see them really fire up. I'd like to see Danny come back, but the only real story line around here at the moment is the baby and who the father is. Maybe to mentor Tina as Danny doesn't take any of her crap. They could both develop into real badass chick cops... go girls! I think we've seen Julien's torment for long enough, perhaps his job could take precedence for a while, he still has to work on his attitude with Tina. If Dutch was to solve Lem's murder, I think his reputation in the barn would improve, give him confidence, improve his chances with the ladies, get him a woman, please!! And of course as many flashbacks of Lem as they can squeeze in. I also think that FX has shocked and surprised us all the way through every episode of the shield, right from 'the pilot' to 'of mice and Lem'. They will do the same again s6 and s7, whatever we expect, expect the opposite, take a few wrong turns, back flips, spin around 5 times and we still wouldn't be close to guessing what happens!!! Ya think Jan '07 is a long time to wait for s6??? s5 hasn't even aired in Australia yet, our network that aired the rest of the seasons doesn't even have it listed in their line-up. I have been EXTREMELY fortunate in getting my hands on a copy, though I can't wait for the release of the dvd's so I can watch all the special features. Man I love this show!!!! It is the bestest ever!! ;D

I would like to see Ronnie grow some balls, I would like to see him do some real ass kicking. Or better yet find out he knew Shane killed Lem. NO even better yet, it was Ronnies Idea to have Lem killed, and the deal was who ever found Lem first would do it. And Ronnie and Shane try hiding it from Vic. How are them apples? ? I do want to see Assinvader get his, I would like to see him killed, and at the very least have Vic find out about the BJ and use that to his advantage. Mostly I want to see Kav and IAD go away, and Vic back to pure bad ass, kicking ass and taking names. And he needs to position himself to go out on top since press releases season 7 will be the last. Oh yeah and no time jump, start at Lems funeral.

Ronnie the computer geek turn badass?!!! I don't know if we want to see badass techo-style??!! Maybe he could use his laptop to beat someone in to submission! LOL ok ok, I'm kidding I'm kidding, I love Ronnie, he does need some more action though. I'd love to see him beefed up and take on 3 guys at a time like Lem did in the last ep of s4, now that was an ass kicking!

Post by I Adore Ronnie on Jul 6, 2006 20:47:30 GMT -5
aussieangel, I enjoyed your wish list Lots of great ideas! Technically, one of the dudes escaped and he beat up the other two... but yeah, that was very hot! However, I think Ronnie is progressing slightly. When he got burned by Armadillo, Shane and Lem got him killed so Ronnie never got his revenge. But then in 5x01 when the guy hit him with the cross, he beat the crap out of the guy (with Shane's help and Vic's look-out, lol). Plus, he has had a few more "kick-ass" moments that involve kicking (5x08) and/or the use of his weapon... as long as it's not out of the blue violence, I wouldn't mind more I still prefer the slightly geeky Ronnie though! Then again, he could be sitting around whistling and I'd still enjoy it! ;D

I have a feeling that "the picture" or at least knowledge of "The Incident" will come out. Maybe Antwon (or the Juans girlfriend) will spill their guts on the killing/picture to Kavenaugh. I would like to see Aceveda humiliated at least.
