This thread actually gave me reason to rewatch the series (I'm in the middle of Season 4 right now and I've only been watching since probably Thursday
) Yeah, this shyt is better than Breaking Bad.
Antawn Mitchell >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Gus Fring
Armadillo >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mike
Aceveda (sp?) being forced to give head and then participating in rape fantasies
Not to mention Forrest Whitaker.
Breaking Bad had a deeper, more intricate storyline, but The Shield was more interesting, fast paced, and entertaining. It's more entertaining than The Wire even though I have The Wire as my GOAT.
I liked the dynamic of Vic/Shane more than Walt/Jessie as well.
Don't get me wrong though; I LOVE Breaking Bad. As far as these types of dramas goes, I've got it right now...
1 - The Wire
2 - The Shield
3 - Breaking Bad
4 - Oz
5 - The Sopranos
6 - Mad Men (not a crime drama but it always gets thrown into the category)
Edit: That Antwan Mitchell interrogation might have been some of the best acting and most incredible scene I've ever seen
