These guys are definite mavericks, and this show is definitely a phenomenal achievement in television history.

To be clear, this is the DVD set of Season 1 re-released in 2008:
I broke down & bought the new Sony release of Season 1. Here are my nitpicks about the differences with the original release:
The new set is in widescreen, which is a night & day difference from the old set on my HDTV.... The "Previously on The Shield" segments absent on the original Season 1 set are here. But, the 1st chapter stop is after the opening credits, not the recap. What a bunch of duki! Also, ... Read More
