    Season 2 was great. The acting was just as good as the first season, The story was a lot better as well, and the season finale makes it really excited for season 3.

    But for an excitingly directed, beautifully cast series, 'The Shield' seems to think that its core premise (Mackey: a hero who does brutal, illegal things) is so intrinsically engrossing, we're not going to notice how recklessly dumb his actions are.
