The Shield 7x13 - "Family Meeting" (SERIES FINALE)

[Goliath]

Shame they couldn't have wedged Army into the final few episodes at some point.

One thing I enjoyed about the seventh season is the way they brought back some of the guest stars from the previous six.

If nothing else, it allowed them to write one of the rudest lines in the entire history of the show:

"Did bad shit go down between us? I don't...I don't remember."

"You don't remember whose cock you gagged on this morning, either."

^^ Although understandable why not, I'd have loved to have seen Kavanaugh back for the finale or at least sometime during the final season.

All in all though, the final season of The Shield was everything I hoped it would be.

One week later and I still feel bad for Ronnie. I liked how they mentioned Antwan Mitchell though. Could you imagine being Ronnie and getting suited up in the orange jumpsuit and being led into a prison area filled with bangers (the one-niners, spook street....anymore?) with Antwan Mitchell standing there to greet you? It is chilling to think what GenPop would do to an ex-cop, detective, anti-gang unit member?

I just feel bad for him....


Did he even know that Vic would shoot and kill Terry Crowly in the premiere? If I remember it was Vic and Shane standing there when Terry walked through the door. Did Shane know Vic was going to shoot Terry? And didn't Ronnie come in after that looking like WTF? I know they did some bad stuff, but well, no buts they all did bad stuff, just Ronnie is paying his freedom for it.

^I'm pretty sure that Crowley's murder was something that Shane and Vic cooked up, just between the two of them. Didn't Ronnie only find out the truth in Season Six?

Interesting ending. The series had much in common with the Sopranos and so did the finale in some ways.

Vic really wound up a winner despite having a job like many of us here may have- sitting around writing useless reports.

But in 3 years he is free and clear to set up a PI office. He is free to track down his family and adult daughter.
