I've only seen the first season, but damn. The first episode really hooks you and it keeps you hooked.

I had heard about it being a good show forever so when blockbuster was closing and DVDs were super cheap I figured I'd give it a shot. I'm glad that I did.

Please no spoilers.

Awesome show. I just signed up for netflix and put season 2 at the top of my queue.

I've only seen a few episodes, but the ones I saw were intense and riveting. The series box set is definitely on my wish list.

You will not be disappointed LN I have all 7 seasons on DVD, the series finale will not disapoint as well. I think it's one of the best series finales I've ever seen.

Well written show and some damn fine acting as well, especially by Michael Chickliss, he was superb as Vic Mackey

Very easy to watch once you get into it. I haven't seen beyond season 3, though; really ought to get on with it - I hear the finale's great.

It's a sort of poor-man's The Wire. tongue

A great show. You will get no spoilers from me, except Vic Mackey becomes the Thing in the Fantastic 4 films......

I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!

I got the series boxset for $64, it arrived yesterday. Pure awesomeness in a box. The way they did the DVD set is pretty cool too, it's like a big book. All I could really ask for is a deck of those strike team cards to be included.

I'm up to about the middle of season 3 now. What an awesome show.
