 Packaging not Practical Nov 18, 2009
I only give this set one star because of the way it was packaged.
If it was just about the quality of the series and the episodes themselves I'd give it 5 stars.
The set is packaged in a coffee table book type case that, while great looking, is not practical for holding DVD disks. The DVDs have to be slipped in and out of a very tight space in between two sheets of cardboard. Almost every disk in this set had small scratches on them and some had huge gashes in them. A few were unplayable. There were also small particles of glue on the disks that came off of the cardboard book packaging.

 What a Mess Nov 17, 2009
Been watching the price of The Shield: The Complete Series Collection. Preordered from Amazon and couldn't wait to get this set. Very nice looking book that holds all 29 DVDs. The DVDs are sandwiched between the cardboard pages. Spots of adhesive got between these page and the DVDs were slipped in and the adhesive scratches the DVDs when taking them out or putting them in. Also some adhesive sticks to the DVD which makes it very hard to get out. You have to pick the adhesive off about half the DVDs. Very poor quality on Sony's part. The book looks very nice but being 7 ½" X 12" it dose not store with any of my other Series. Would look nice on the coffee table but not where I want to keep my DVDs. Amazon has been great, they are sending me another set. Amazon don't think the Glue will be a problem in them all, we will see. Today you can buy The Complete Series Collection for $107, buy the Season 1 thru 7 buy them selfs and it cost $235. Hope they fix the problem.

Scratched Nov 06, 2009
Many of the DVD's were scratched, and scratched badly upon opening. This is not an Amazon shipping problem, but a Sony packaging problem. It seems that the glue to hold the pages together dried on the inner sleeves, and when you pull them out (DVD's) the scratch on the hard glue. I am getting a replacement set, hopefully this was an original production run problem.

A REALLY GREAT tv show and a very beautiful 'coffee table' book type case, but every disc was horribly scratched! Nov 04, 2009
I have only seen season 1 of this REALLY GREAT show, and I decided to buy The Shield: Complete Series in a 'coffee table' style book because for only $109.99 it seemed like it was a great deal.
Well, it was anything but a great deal, and from this I have learned a lesson to never buy a 'coffee table' style book dvd set ever again no matter how beautiful the 'coffee table' book is.
The 'coffee table' book is really beautiful in this The Shield: Complete Series set as it has alot of nice pics and notes, but every disc in this set was horribly scratched. And I mean every single disc was really badly scratched. It was a good thing that the store where I bought it from allowed me to return it for a refund, because usually a retail store will only allow an exchange for the same item.
So now I have to decide on how much I really like this show to buy each season set separately, because that is not cheap as that will cost more than twice as much as the Complete Series set by itself.
Oh well, it was a lesson learned.

 One of the Best Shows on Television....EVER Nov 04, 2009
Superbly written with a story arc that spans the entire run of the series.
Acting, adrenaline, and all that other good stuff that makes you spend (or should i say INVEST) time in watching the crooked path Vic Mackey walks on. You'll always want to see what happens next....even till the end. Even if you've never heard of the show, or have never watched an episode, the price is too good to pass up on the entire series. YOU CANNOT watch television the same way and in this day and age where pure narrative/fictional shows are getting drowned out by reality garbage, THE SHIELD set a new standard. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOW. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. The Shield has the best elements of every other show: 24, The Sopranos, Law and Order, and much more. BUY NOW.
