The Pretense of Realism doesn't make The Shield any less Poorly Made

You'd think The Shield had somehow broken some new ground and was brilliantly made when you hear the claims it makes about "breaking new ground".

Five minutes into watching it, you realize how badly made it is, and that any "new ground" broken is that of film illiteracy.

Get this: we are now told that not setting up shots for the camera is "genius". What genius!! So if you just do whatever, it shows how great you are?!!??!! What may be most disappointing with this show is that it was made by a number of producers who should have known better, but thought that going with hype and not fighting ridiculous ideas like the constantly hand-held camera and the bad edits was the easy way to get along with the network.

Well, they got along all right, but instead of a great show, which this had the potential of being, this is a really bad show that languished in the ratings and is only notable for its repeated Emmy and Golden Globe campaigns.

Sad.
