During the hiatus, we are going to (re) watch The Shield from the beginning - one ep a week starting with the very first! Let's watch Ep One, Season One this week and prepare to comment by Monday, July 11th. It will be great viewing the early eps with the perspective of Season Four!! Hope to see your comments here!

I don't have much time but I did want to make this comment re: S1 Ep1 - I did not remember how much *harder* they pushed the envelope back then - Dutch commenting on the dead woman's "great rack" comes to mind...wow...things sure have changed!!!!!

Yeah, CC and I watched "The Pilot". OMG, the first 10 minutes, with the chick grieving for her sister while on her knees in front of Dutch, had us holding our sides!!! There were so many great lines in that ep I might have to introduce the "split poll", which I was considering this year (and will definitely implement for the "line of the year" poll). I've got the lines picked out for the latter, I just have to create the poll. Even with 16 choices (poll A and poll B) I was limited to 3 eps that had two lines each. I'll explain my choices when I submit the poll (sometime within a week from now--job is tough right now, ugh!)

There is nothing like watching an ep with another rabid fan. I have always watched it alone (well, my cats were there) and only once with a non-fan who glanced at it with total disinterest. That was painful!
Which is why Chem's idea of a mega-thon is too excellent. Maybe meet in LA and watch as many eps as we can prior to a SET VISIT in the fall?? Like, only pause so someone can pee (how will a real fan hold it?)
And the ep of the week idea will resume.
PS. Remember the scene where Dutch dropped a jar of semen? That scene almost made me scream... that's what I want next year (not more jars of semen, but hair-raising grossosity)

Look familiar?? This is a photo from the local rag. It's a larger version of the cropped pic that actually appeared, which was just the coach and the football player's head. I roared when I saw it today. I can't believe they were so brazen but the pic prob won't even be noticed around here...except for a few twisted Shield fans!

This was recently discussed in the HIATUS thread. With a larger forum membership this year, it could work!
I'd love to see all 5 Seasons have their own "Season Episode Discussion" section. At the very least, it would be a quick Episode Guide for when I don't have my DVDs handy. Contrary to popular belief, I don't travel with them every day.

I fully support this idea! Having a sub-board for each season's episode discussion would certainly organize the conversation and make an "episode guide" of sorts here on TSR!! Yeah, I like it!

SpikeTV's website says "Pilot" and "Our Gang" playing back-to-back tonight at 10pm. I have absolutely no idea what time zone that is. www.spiketv.com
