Im really fricking lost on the over arching story because the channel broadcasting it where I watched it on just kinda played random episodes from different seasons.
The only thing I know for sure is that Vics children has autism and that the show becomes really woke and shit later on
I don't really think I can remember the show being woke at any point.
there was the one scene where Julien and danielle were doing traffic stops then one care with 4 blacks, all smoking weed and armed and danielle impounded their care then when they stopped a white guy with a pirated dvd Julien chimped out about "muh racial profiling" and had his car impounded too implying its somehow comparable

Stereotypes wouldn't exist if they weren't useful heuristics.

Stereotypes are an inflated sense of reality to the point of caricature. A bias for those who lack the ability for nuance. An idiotic idea that you can "win" a discussion. "You say X therefore X caricature" is such a laughable conception, it's absurd.

Stereotypes exist because, for the large part, they are useful. That's not to say they are universal, but if they didn't have any predictive value, then the stereotype would change.

Actual word salad. Complete non-sequitars. What are you talking about? What does any of this shit have to do with the validity of stereotyping as a heuristic concept? >An idiotic idea that you can "win" a discussion. "You say X therefore X caricature" is such a laughable conception, it's absurd.

bruh julian is a gay who gets shat on during the run ofc he's gonna be spurting woke shit doesn't mean the show is woke, he's just a dumb Black person repeating what he heard on twitter
>it's better than breaking bad
It really is.
I only recently watched all of BB a couple of months ago and while it was indeed pretty good, I felt people overhyped it so much. The final episode, which is supposed to be "The best season finale of all time" feels almost like a dying fantasy of Walt's in how it just so neatly resolves things in Walt's favor. It doesn't hold a candle to the ending of The Shield.
>the show becomes really woke and shit later on
what the hell are you talking about? Neither of those happen. It never gets woke at all and the last season is one of the best.
>watch the show >in one episode danielle is pregnant >then she is going to be promoted to detective >then she is gone >then she is just there doing the normal thing >then she is having a mental breakdown >then there is a totally different character in her place and no one mentions her
This is my experience with everything in this show
I really thought they were building to this with the cat scene. Disappointed that they decided he just wanted to empathise with the killer who was talking about watching the light go out of the eyes.
One of the writers wanted Dutch to be revealed as a serial killer right at the end of the show, but he was overruled. I think that's for the best. It would have just been there for cheap shock value and would have completely undermined Dutch's character.
>episode has nothing to do with this scene >it still shows up in the Previous On segment
This and the “you want me lick your balls daddy” we’re in like every episode it was hilarious.

Yeah lmao, I swear that guy's actor had to piss somebody off
I had to stop watching because of how frequently they used the words "Armenian money train (robbery)" together. Surely there was a briefer way to refer to it, like why not just say "The Op" or something?
Also, the idea that Michael Chiklis is supposed to be tough is laughable. He's short with a big belly and noodly arms. Still had some great moments though like Dutch catching the serial killer

everything in your post is wrong
it's better than breaking bad
but vics son does have autism though
dunno what he means by woke
vics son never had autism it was the vax that gave it to him

He kills a cop in the first episode, that's a woke position at this point
the cops white though and its forgotten right away
It's not forgotten, it comes up in a huge way in the last season

Show is definitely not woke. Not even for that day's standards, but by current standards it'd be crucified
Why was he such an incel?
he couldnt find a girl who liked duran duran as much as him
>incel
>bangs vic's ex wife and reads bedtime stories to their kids
heh, nothing personnel
>tried to whoop Vic's ass
Three digits IQ is a blessing but a curse too, Black person
>could have slayed latina pussy if Billings didn't wiener block him by proxy
Dutch was a chad
Julien is canceled. Please refrain from posting his image
Why did he do it?
got sick of pussy and wanted to go back to bussy so he thought jail would be good for it
Can't run away for the gay forever.
If you gay, you gay.
how many rewatches did it take to realise that Dutch becomes a serial killer throughout the series, a background plot to the larger story
>he fell for the implications
Dutch never killed anyone.
holy FILTERED. remember when his girlfriend "just moves back"
You have no proof. You have idiotic assumptions made out of coincidence and thin air.
>kills cat
>cries like a b***h
Nah

i was hoping that his obsession with serial killers and trying to get into their mindset would make him into a killer at some point

Started watching it two days ago, first season was pretty good but God I hate looking at CCH Pounder.

Dutc was weird, autistic and kindof a pussy but he was a good detective
For me it's Billings
Vic is dead or in prison
probably the former
>TFW The Shield retroactively became a docudrama
There is literally a show about these guys made by David Simon, do not recommend.
Yeah, except for Josh Bernthal, The Shield is by far the better telling - even not actually being about it.
I tried watching it but it's so frickin boring and trying to be The Wire but it's not.

No. Villanous protagonists can work but in this case he wasn't interesting enough to actually be the protagonist.
Billings was the best
