Title: The Shield
Post by: sniper on January 12, 2006, 09:24:17 PM

Anyone else a fan of The Shield.  I must say I enjoyed seeing the start to Season 5 pretty much the same time as the US run for a change.  Excellent show with excellent actors.

I was a huge fan but it jumped around so much for time slots I didn't know when to watch. Heck, I didn't know it was up to season 5 and was surprised it was still on the air. I think I've season all of seasons 1 & 2 and parts of maybe 3 or 4 but sort of gave up. I think I should look to rent these on DVD some time to catch up. What time, day and channel is it on now?

I ordered CH from Hamilton to be able to watch it.  It runs Wednesday at 8 here so I assume 10 PM in Ontario.

It wasn't well advertised for a new season start.  I only found it on the guide.  This is the first time I have heard of it running this fast in Canada.  IAD is latched onto Lemonhead, so the story could get interesting fast.

Who the heck is Lemonhead?

Lemonhead is played by Ken Johnson, Lemansky is his character name. He's the blonde guy on the Strike Team.

I'm a huge fan of The Shield. I have the first 3 seasons on DVD, but don't have tv, so I can't watch new ones. It's the only show worth watching in my opinion.

I bought the DVDs for the first 3 seasons, but figured to chase it on TV for awhile, since the picture quality is no better on DVD due the 16 mm film.
