He has come home, where he belongs. The Ancient Mariner returns to lead his first team to glory, forever and ever. Amen!

BSG was good once upon a time but even at its best it never held a candle to The Shield. The Sopranos is a great show too but there are way too many meandering and uneven points mid-series.

Give The Shield another go, it's worth the investment.

I won't drag a BSG argument into this thread, but I will say that the Shield is top 5 all time TV shows for me. The Wire is one of maybe two that I would rank above it.

Been meaning to check this out for the longer time. Looks like another visit to the DVD rental store.

It's worth buying.
