[@Brainstorm893]

​@@DubberRucks I agree that it is up there with the likes of The Wire, but I don't feel it is talked about and is acclaimed as much publicly the way most of the all-time drama TV series are. l put it higher than Breaking Bad. The Wire was a bit of an underground darling for a while too, most internet sources at least acknowledge it now as one of the greatest. I don't feel The Shield has that same rep despite deserving it, but it's starting to get the recognition. Maybe it's different in the US, but where I'm from in Europe nobody I've talked to is really aware of this show.

'The Shield' is my favourite TV series of all time and I wholeheartedly recommend it. It got maligned a bit, because 'The Wire' was so big at the time, but this is a fantastic series that sticks the landing (the finale is perfect). The top notch cast, a very dark sense of humour and constant suspense all contribute to it being so memorable.

[@RPGLover87]

I think one of my favourite casting things is that the guy that plays Hank in Breaking Bad also played the CEO villain in Lawnmower Man. I just find that funny. The one who appears on the TV screen in the meeting room. Also I'm currently playing a PS2 game that I've had for about 13 years and never got around to, Under the Skin. It's a fun game where you're an alien causing mischief in an arcade-style adventure by disguising yourself as a human and using whatever tools those people have to wreak havoc. It's by the Viewtiful Joe guys and has a level that's a parody of Resident Evil 3 where you have to defeat the Nemesis. If you can find it I think you'd enjoy it.

The premise of this show is a great example of differences in time. There was a lot of "System failed me," vibe in people back then. So stuff like the Punisher and bending the rules to stick it to the system was popular. People today still have it but now this is associated with bigotry, corruption, and excessive force because people actually trying this. No one is more of a sad victim of these bad eggs than the Punisher. The character was always against racism, police corruption, and police excessive force. Now his symbol is ruined by them.

Reservoir dogs Buffy the vampire slayer, ps2 game (I can't recall the full title of it) & lastly (though not a movie tie-in) The old Indiana Jones game that was on the ps2. Again, I can't recall the full name of the title but I do remember it being an OK game despite the lame graphics, the jankiness & the dodgy controls. Love these videos, takes me back to the days when you were never short on a title even though half of em were crap. Who knows? In todays era of remakes & reboots some of these games could work better with a face-lift, tighter controls & maybe just slight improvements to the original stories. A lot of these games could be alright in today's world.
