The Shield

I protagonisti sono quattro detective corrotti: Vic, Shane, Lem e Ronnie. Quattro migliori amici dal legame indissolubile che va oltre i normali rapporti lavorativi che si instaurano generalmente tra colleghi. Tutti e quattro si riuniscono sempre in una stanza privata, una sorta di piccola "tana" dove a nessuno è concesso entrare, in cui pianificano tutti i sotterfugi da mettere in atto per il proprio tornaconto. Usano la loro posizione per controllare direttamente gli spacciatori e le gang per creare una serie di intrallazzi per arricchirsi. A lungo andare, finiranno per invischiarsi in traffici più grandi e per coprire le loro mosse illegali cominciano a compierne di peggiori tanto da diventare più criminali dei criminali stessi. Le vite dei quattro detective finiscono per scontrarsi con un destino sempre più duro per colpa delle indagini su di loro che diventeranno sempre più reali e pericolose. Tutto ciò farà nascere, tra i quattro, problemi nel loro rapporto che si trasformeranno in qualcosa di più tragico.

Stagioni

NTitoloSoggettoData della prima messa in ondaNumero di episodi
0Speciali200334D
1Stagione 1Una serie acclamata e popolare che infrange le convenzioni del genere poliziesco, ambientata nel mondo duro e moralmente ambiguo di un distretto di polizia di Los Angeles in cui il confine fra bene e male viene oltrepassato ogni giorno. Michael Chiklis ha conquistato un Emmy e un Golden Globe per la sua interpretazione del detective Vic Mackey, a capo della squadra d’assalto.200213D
2Stagione 2Per evitare di perdere il proprio ruolo nel narcotraffico locale, Vic dichiara guerra al piano di Navaro e Armando Quintero di unire due gang violente per monopolizzare il traffico di cocaina a Farmington. La guerra miete vittime fra i prigionieri e manda la squadra d’assalto a sud del confine, dove si scoprirà un’operazione multimilionaria di riciclaggio di denaro in mano alla mafia armena.200313D
3Stagione 3La squadra d'assalto è sospettata di avere un ruolo nella rapina a un treno carico di munizioni, e Vic si trova coinvolto in una sanguinaria guerra razziale fra gang di afroamericani e latini. Mentre Vic cerca di evitare che Farmington esploda, l’arresto frettoloso di un gangster asiatico porta alla morte di due bambini innocenti e alle proteste della comunità coreana, solitamente pacifica.200415D
4Stagione 4La squadra d'assalto si è sciolta in seguito a una valanga di accuse di corruzione, e il futuro di Vic è incerto. Aceveda, dopo le elezioni, dovrà navigare nelle acque agitate del municipio, e a prendere il suo posto è l’esperta Monica Rawlings, decisa a svolgere il suo incarico con rigore. Il suo rapporto con Vic viene messo alla prova quando un caso di omicidio fa emergere tensioni razziali.200513D
5Stagione 5Dopo la partenza di Monica Rawling, è Steve Billings ad assumere il comando della squadra, proprio quando in un liceo di latini scoppia una sommossa in cui resta ucciso uno studente. Il caso mette alla prova il nuovo leader, e intanto Vic e la squadra d’assalto sono sotto osservazione da parte di Jon Kavanaugh degli Affari Interni, che vuole dimostrarne i crimini e accusare Vic di omicidio.200611D
6Stagione 6Shane è tormentato dai sensi di colpa dopo aver scoperto di aver commesso un omicidio solo a causa di una menzogna del detective Kavanaugh. Mentre questo fa di tutto per screditare la squadra d’assalto – anche manipolare prove e minacciare un informatore fidato – Vic non conosce l’identità dell'assassino e cerca di dimostrare che si tratta del malavitoso Guardo Lima.200710D
7Stagione 7Le ripercussioni della rapina al treno continuano ad affliggere la famiglia di Mackey, quando Vic ingaggia una guerra fra la mafia armena e un potente cartello della droga legato al governo messicano. Con l’intento di punire Shane, cerca di mettere tutti contro tutti e si allea con un magnate latino dell’edilizia.200813D
