Funny how everyone seems to see Pete as shades of bright blue. The fan who does the graphic art has Pete in bright turquoise.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's the blue suit.

Art Crawl!!!
Must be. I thought that the Don, Betty and Joan yarns were very good.

I love the Joan yarn the most.

Yeah, before I even saw it, I thought the Betty yarn would be pale blue and yellow.
The Joan yarn is spectacular and the Don is... well, Don.

I did catch the Shield Wolfram. I was not a fan of the show until this season, so I'm an also ran, but I felt it ended the only way it could do. That last scene was as brutally uncomfortable as any of the bloodier scenes in the run, eh?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I've watched The Shield off and on over the seasons. Only just watched the finale yesterday. I think at the end we were supposed to see Vic as being in a prison of sorts, but it's nothing compared to what Ronnie is facing, and the more I think on it, the more it seems to me that he has the patience, the mental stamina, and the guile to endure a cubicle job while he regroups and comes up with ways to pursue and find his two real interests -- money and his kids. It won't take him any three years.

Anybody catch the Shield last night?
Yes, yes I did. When Vic got that look of devastated realization on his face that all his conniving and manuvering had gotten him to a cubicle, while his entire strike team was dead or in prison, I thought it was great! Then when he took the gun out and smiled, I wondered if he saw that as his way out or if he was hatching another plot.
Very interesting episode. The only thing that was left unsolved was whether the psycho kid's mother was really dead.

I agree with this. What a great series finale, right up there with Buffy, Six Feet Under, and Angel. The Shield is the only cop show other than The Inside that I've actually enjoyed.
I didn't start watching The Shield until the fourth season, but I've seen most of the episodes since then, and I've borrowed DVD's of the first season. One of these days I'll watch all the episodes. Maybe I'll buy a complete series DVD set if they release one and I have money at the time.
