"Are you ready for this?" quintessential cop on the edge Vic Mackey (Michael Chiklis) asks his longtime nemesis, Councilman David Aceveda (Benito Martinez) in the season finale. With more than a year between seasons, we're always ready for The Shield, which rivals The Wire not only in quality (not everyone is ready to play at this level, as Mackey states at one point) but also in the lack of appreciation for one of television's very best shows. Again, another great season, and another Emmy snub. There ought to be a law. There is much more to The Shield than its shocking and brutal violence and language. This penultimate season, which turns the heat on Mackey, a one-man good cop/bad cop, to boil, is "all kinds of personal" for its intimately observed characters. Mackey is obsessed with finding out who killed Strike Force member Lem, while Kavanaugh (Forest Whitaker), just as obsessed with taking Mackey down, recklessly crosses the line to "frame a guilty man." Meanwhile, Mackey keeps moving the line as he relentlessly pursues the drug kingpin he has judged responsible for Lem's death, going so far as to stage a faux kidnapping of his suspect's girlfriend. In one of the season's most excruciating scenes, he turns chain-wielding executioner. What viewers know, but Mackey initially does not, is that the killer is a guilt-ridden Shane (Walton Goggins), Mackey's best friend. Shane, ultimately exiled from the Strike Force, becomes embroiled in an ill-fated association with the daughter of Armenian mob boss, putting Mackey's family in peril. Back at the Barn, newly promoted Claudette Wyms (CCH Pounder) is under intense pressure as the precinct's body count mounts. Her former partner, Dutch (Jay Karnes) develops a crush on Tina (Paula Garces), the pretty new cop he is mentoring. She has a one-night stand with hotshot Kevin Hiatt (Alex O'Loughlin), the new guy whom Wyms fears may learn too much from Mackey or not enough. The tension builds inexorably to a season finale that fulfills all expectations, in which the resourceful Mackey, facing a review board hearing, must scramble to save his badge, resulting in a surprising alliance that bodes well for the final season. "Trust me," he states at one point, "There's a way out. There always is." From first episode to last, The Shield's sixth season is gripping, gut-wrenching stuff. To quote Shane: "Put another one in the win column." --Donald Liebenson
Product Description
Continuing directly after season 5, Vic and the Strike Team are distraught over Lem's death. Shane has been overcome by guilt and becomes reckless and suicidal. Kavanaugh refuses to let the case die and resorts to planting evidence and coercing witnesses to lie about the Strike Team. Dutch and Claudette begin to suspect his integrity. Vic learns from Claudette that the Chief plans to force him into early retirement — and vows to wreak bloody vengeance on Lem's killer before losing his badge. Claudette learns that the Barn could be shut down if no improvements are made by the time quarterly crime statistics are released.

 Another great season October 4, 2008
Originally Season 6 was supposed to be the 2nd half of Season 5, but FX split the season in half. So, make sure you've watched season 5 and remember it before starting 6. In fact, given how many old characters and storylines this season pulls back into the forefront, you'll enjoy it more if you've recently rewatched all the seasons.
The DVDs themselves are fine, the only complaint I have is that there isn't an option to watch the full episodes with the deleted scenes edited back in where they would have appeared. Instead you have to watch them on their own, out of context.
The Shield is amazing! October 3, 2008
The series "The Shield" is amazing! It's got drama, suspense, sex, scandle. It's very intense, especially as the seasons go on!
I believe that the season that is showing right now (Season 7) is going to be the last of the series, which is very sad and disappointing.
So I would recommend to anyone that is THINKING about buying one of the Seasons, dont by just one, buy them ALL! It's a great show that you'll want to rewatch later on down the line!
 The Shield Season Six October 3, 2008
The quality, delivery etc. was great as usual. It was a bit disappointing that the season was so short and still cost the same price as other seasons that were much longer.
The Shield season six October 3, 2008
I love the shield and now I have the six season FINALLY. This season is incredible where vic trys to find out who kills lem. This is a good one to own to add to anyones shield collection. I would rate it 5 stars
The Shield-6th Season September 30, 2008
It was great being able to see all of the shows without commercial interruption. Hopefully the 7th and final season won't take as long to go to DVD.
