May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


So, I like the series on FX "The Shield", and as I was watching last night I was surprised to see Gina staring as a mentally disturbed woman who faked being sexually assaulted.

It was kind of wierd watching her play this defenseless type with all sorts of emotional baggage. Definitely a departure from the roles she normally plays. Loved seeing her do something different.

Anyone else catch it?

YES, that was a trip seeing Mrs. Washburne being crazy. But she played it well.

She certainly did. My wife & I both were amazed what an excellent job she did with the part.

I saw it as well. Very good job she did. I had to yell to my wife that she was on.

It was painful to watch, I was waiting for her to pull out her weapon, and kill everybody.

AM I NOT MERCIFUL?!?!?!?

I had to tape the episode and just finished watching. I thought she was really good, but yes I was hoping for a little tough girl stuff at the end.

Are we the only Shield watchers on the board? I think this is my last season watching. I know that a series will not "kill off" their main character but I am so tired with Vic getting away with all his crap. However, the characters that I like and think are interesting always get axed, Tevon and then Glenn Close, now what's up with CCH Pounder, and of course poor Lem.
