| Pros |
Excellent portrayal of gang life, development of characters, action packed. |
| Cons |
Some characters frustrating at times. |
| Bottom Line |
The Shield made me think and question the ethics of policing. It is also very entertaining. Definitely purchase or rent if you are looking for something different. |

This series is how a cop series should be. Nothing is held back, and different approaches are done within the filming of the show. Well done FX! |

Make no mistake, "The Shield" is hands down the most violent, complex, and thoroughly engaging cop show to date. |
