THE SHIELD SEASONS 1-6

Season 1
Detective Vic Mackey is the leader of an elite Strike Team unit, a group of cops effective at eliminating crime but also operating under Vic's own set of rules. But his rules sometimes cross the fine line between legal and illegal. Now the precinct has a new captain who doesn't like Vic's tactics and wants to bust him off the force -- even as he finds himself going to Vic for help whenever the going gets rough.

There's a reason this show is on cable. It "takes the grit and reality of a Homicide or Sopranos to a whole another level" (Newsday). The Shield also made history by earning the most nominations ever for a basic cable drama series, with Michael Chiklis winning the coveted Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. Now is your chance to experience all the action and excitement of television's most controversial show...from the beginning.

Season 2
After a rocky start, Detective Vic Mackey and Captain David Aceveda have formed an uneasy alliance that Detective Claudette Wyms is determined to destroy. Vic's personal life is in shambles and a new nemesis on the street forces the Strike Team to risk everything in the pursuit of one last big score for their "retirement fund."

The Shield made history with the most Emmy nominations ever for a basic cable drama. It won a Golden Globe for Best Drama Series and star Michael Chiklis won both the Emmy and Golden Globe awards for Lead Actor in a Drama Series. Brace yourself for a powerful second season that's even edgier and more in-your-face than the first.

Season 3
TV's hardest-hitting cop drama returns with a vengeance for a pulse-pounding third season!

After scoring big with the money train, the Strike Team plays it cool to avoid arousing suspicion as Dutch and Claudette investigate the robbery and murder of two Armenian gangsters. Tensions are stretched even further when Vic finds himself at odds with his team as they face a bitter rivalry from the new Decoy Squad. But hostilities are quickly forgotten when Captain Aceveda reveals that the Strike Team is the target of an Armenian mob hit.

Season 4
"Once again, 'The Shield' departs from formula, compelling usito watch." -- The Seattle Times

TV's most in-your-face cop drama returns with a gripping, take-no-prisoners fourth season!

Life at the Barn may never be the same after the Strike Team is dissolved and Vic and Shane are assigned to regular detective duty. Captain Aceveda is also leaving to begin his new job on the City Council. Any hope that Detective Claudette Wyms had of assuming Aceveda's command is dashed when another female, Monica Rawling, is chosen as the new captain. Although Vic often clashed with Aceveda, he quickly realizes that Captain Rawling also has her own agenda - one that not only shakes up the gangs on the streets, but causes friction among many of the detectives, as well.

Season 5
Conscience is a killer.

As the Strike Team battles racial tensions in the city, friction inside The Barn escalates with the arrival of Lieutenant Jon Kavanaugh (Forest Whitaker), an dogged Internal Affairs cop obsessed with taking down down Vic Mackey, squeezing Vic's ex-wife Corrine, to do it. In the midst of this chaos, Dutch and Claudette's work relationship becomes strained, Danny refuses to reveal the father of her baby and Julien struggles with a new, attractive rookie partner.
