I just recently got into The Shield. I was watching Sons of Anarchy and knew that The Shield involved a lot of the same people. The complete series DVD set with all seven seasons sells for only about $30 on Amazon and eBay, so I couldn't pass that up.
To my surprise, I found it to be far superior to Sons of Anarchy. That show's been going downhill fast since Season 3 or so, but right now I'm on Season 5 of The Shield and it's just getting better.
I can highly recommend it, but the only downside to the DVD set is that they use cheap packaging to keep costs down. The discs are stacked on two big spindles, which means they're all touching and can get scratched, and it can be a pain getting to a disc on the bottom. So I bought a $5 package of CD paper sleeves and put the discs in those. Problem solved.
That release is not the only one that has discs stacked in spindles. The full-series releases of
What's Happening!! and
Sanford and Son, among others, are like that as well.
