Fox The Shield (Season 2) - DVD

Everything good about the first season of The Shield is intensified in the second. For detective Vic Mackey (Michael Chiklis) and his amoral strike team, these 13 episodes follow "the money train," a stockpile of Armenian mob money ripe for the taking. Mackey's team plots to steal this criminal fortune while under pressure from Capt. Aceveda (Benito Martinez), whose political campaign is threatened by a civilian auditor (Lucinda Jenney) assigned to uncover corruption in "the Barn." The uneasy alliance between Aceveda and Mackey provokes the suspicion of Wyms (CCH Pounder), whose by-the-book vigilance is rewarded while Dutch (Jay Karnes) endures a slump that worsens the Barn's sullied reputation. After being horribly disfigured by Mackey, a vile Mexican druglord (Daniel Pino) plots a territorial coup, prompting the strike team's finest police work while Mackey struggles to save his failing marriage. Post-9/11 tensions erupt when beat cop Danny (Catherine Dent) justifiably shoots an armed Arab civilian, and newlywed Julien (Michael Jace) copes with (literal) gay-bashing following his church-sponsored sexual reorientation.
As always, The Shield supports these plotlines with gritty casework, including a brutal kidnapping, homicide, and gangland warfare. Every episode (shot in grainy 16mm) meets the series' high standard of excellence, but "Greenlit," "Homewrecker" (featuring the death of a recurring character), and "Dominoes Falling" are standouts, while the controversial "Co-Pilot" offers a retrospective look at the Barn's volatile origins. Writing and direction are consistently superb, and Pounder deserves honorable mention among the brilliant cast, striking a stoical balance of world-weary wisdom, procedural diligence, and righteous indignation.
Bonus features comprise a virtual film school for anyone seeking a career in television. While the commentaries explore the nuts and bolts of series development, the "Directors' Roundtable" (with creator Shawn Ryan, Scott Brazil, Peter Horton, and Paris Barclay) is a revealing, frequently hilarious study of the rigors of fast-paced production; "Sound Surgery" presents a track-by-track analysis of sound, music, and dialogue; and "Wrap Day" is a celebratory tribute to the series' hard-working cast and crew. It's all good, and guaranteed to stoke anyone's appetite for Season Three. --Jeff Shannon

- the shield is grrreatI watched part of one show prior to ordering the first two seasons. In one weekend my wife and watch them all. Now I have ordered 3 and 4, all I have to do is find another weekend to watch them all. Very addicting. The story line and acting is top notch. Ordering the season DVDs is the way to go. Outstanding show!!! Can't wait to see more.

- TV Can Be This GoodThis series has gone and blown away the mold of the police drama. Soars FAR above everything else that is currently out there. By the time Vic and the strike team are through, police shows will never be the same. This series is a must for anyone who is starving for unpredictable, unprecedented action/drama/excitement. It is never what it seems. The Shield comes at the viewer from so many different directions that it keeps the viewer guessing to the end of each and every episode. I can only ... Read More

- Can't Miss ShieldThis is one of the best TV DVD's I've ever bought. Besides the show being incredible, the extras shine better than nearly any other TV DVD extras. You won't find short, 5 minutes extras here, you'll find a good half hour and hour extras that make this product a delight to own and enjoy. If you like the show, you really need to buy this DVD.

- Oh Vic Mackey... how I hate you, but love your results..Vic Mackey, played by Michael Chiklis is a phenomenal series that pushes the boundaries of primetime TV. FX has been known for putting risque shows up, but The Shield takes the cake.
It is primarily about crooked cops in L.A., but you have a hard time hating them because they are so danged effective. So, buy this series, and watch for Season 7, the final season coming to TV soon!

- The Shield season 2I had purchased The Shield, season 1 and enjoyed it thoroughly, therefore I ordered Season 2, while really not expecting it to measure up to # 1.
I was pleasantly surprised to find it of equal or better quality, and will order season #3
