“Some may say this might be…”
The second to last episode of the Shield just aired...wow. If you've never watched the show, you wouldn't understand and probably wouldn't care. But I love the Shield more than any TV show in my adult life. Second most of my entire life, because you just cannot compete with a 5 year old's love of the Transformers. But from the premier of the pilot episode, this show has hooked me like no other show has.
After seven years, to hear Vic finally lay out everything he's done...all the dirty deeds, every crime and misstep and trespass...it was cathartic and incredibly intense and a great reminder that no matter how much you are rooting for him, regardless of what good things he has done, he is not and never will be "the good guy".
So now, one week until the final hour and half series finale. Will Ronnie really get hung out to dry? Will Shane suffer for his sins? Will anyone, for that matter? I don't think there will be happy endings here, for anyone. This has been such an amazing season (and series), and I hate to see it end...but I think it's going to end well. I don't want to predict, because there isn't much point. I'm just going to countdown til next Tuesday.
