Prime Video Adds All Seven Seasons of Top TV Show
Great news for fans of top-notch cop dramas! Prime Video has just added all seven seasons of The Shield, a series that’s often ranked as one of the greatest TV shows ever. Created by Shawn Ryan, the mastermind behind the recent Netflix hit “The Night Agent,” this show revolves around a group of corrupt cops in the Los Angeles Police Department known as The Strike Team.
Led by the tough Vic Mackey, played brilliantly by Michael Chiklis who won an Emmy and Golden Globe for the role, these cops bend the rules to maintain order and make some quick cash on the side. But as you can imagine, their shady dealings eventually catch up with them. Over its run from 2002 to 2008, The Shield featured a stellar cast including CCH Pounder, Forest Whitaker, Glenn Close, and many more, with Walton Goggins getting his big break on the show.
The Shield stands out for its dark and gritty storyline, well-crafted characters, and powerful performances. Critics and viewers alike have given it high ratings on Rotten Tomatoes, with an average critic score of 90% and audience score of 96% across all seven seasons. Some reviews described the show as “the must-watch show of the season,” “one painful punch in the gut,” and “superb drama.”
If you’re wondering where to catch this acclaimed series, look no further than Prime Video. All seven seasons of The Shield are now available for streaming in Ireland and the UK. So grab your popcorn, settle in, and get ready for an intense ride through the mean streets of LA!
