Channel 10 gave us about 3-4 episodes of the fourth (I think) series earlier in the year. Does anyone know if it is going to be back on free to air?

Supposebly there is a channel in France or somewhere that is airing 2 episodes a week, and they are releasing English versions as well. So i guess you can expect a couple of episodes for the next few weeks, hopefully 4-5 next week, 6-7 etc.

So who's imported the season 5 dvd set? I got mine a couple of weeks ago and blasted through the first 10 eps in no time at all, but I only watched the last episode yesterday. It took me a long time to work up the courage to re-watch poor Lem's tragic demise. Even now I still get torn up over it!! imo it's the best tv death I've ever seen by some margin.
Has anyone else watched the 90 min doco "Delivering the Baby" that comes with the set? It's bloody terrific viewing and it's great to see how much the cast and creators care so deeply for this awesome show. Watching Kenneth Johnson get teary eyed just talking about the show is very touching. Check it out.
Just finished watching episodes 4 and 5 of season 6, this show just gets better and better, best tv show by a long shot!

You were probably able to order it online from April 11, but wouldn't get it until it's released down here.

I'm sure it's in the recent JB Hi-Fi cattledog that you can get it now.I gather that means it's in-store.

I've been busy, I've fallen 5 episodes behind. Seemingly a bad thing, but this entitles me to a 3hr Shield marathon that I've scheduled for saturday night :D

This season pisses me off. The development of the stories was fantastic through the first 9 episodes, and the end of episode 9 was brilliant. I literally cheered out loud when I was watching it.
Shame the final episode is such a steaming pile of crap. So much painstaking story development just nonchalantly wrapped up in 1 hour, just to setup next season's plot. I watched it about a week ago and just thinking about it makes me angry. Makes me wonder why I bother watching this show; the writers have proven time and time again that all their great ideas will come to nothing.

Geez, that's a bit stiff mate, I really loved episode 10. I'm not sure what storylines you're referring to, but not too many of them were wrapped up at all. Vic still seems destined for the exit while Shane is spiralling out of control. No matter how hard he tries to pull it off, Shane will always be a poor man's Vic Mackie.
To be honest I really wouldn't call episode 10 a finale. It feels more like a mid season break because the main season storylines haven't really come to a head. Nothing's really been wrapped. Rather everything's been set for the final act.
Still it wasn't as good as the season 5 finale. But let's face it; that episode was an absolute masterpiece and it's always going to be hard to top that one. After all Lem was a much loved character.
Great episode and a great season 6. The wait for season 7 though is gonna be an absolute b!tch!!!

*spoilers*
Well, my issue is with how much setup there was, and then how relatively quickly they ended the stories, or diminished the setups to nothing.
Like:
- Hiatt being fired so abruptly.
- nothing interesting or unpredictable coming from Shane's dealings with the Armenians (nothing happened to Vic's family; Armenian daughter character is now presumably gone; Shane predictably gets put in debt just like he did with Antwon Mitchell)
- Dutch not going off the deep-end after seeing Tina rooting Hiatt (that was really lame; why have that story at all if not to delve into Dutch's repressed crazyness?)
- Billings' lawsuit came out of nowhere, and if that has any real impact on the plot, that'll be lame as well; he's a comic relief character, and shouldn't really affect the main plot.
- Oh, and Vic surviving that crash hanging out of the car window?! I thought I was watching a Die Hard movie or something.
It just felt like the writers said "lets get everything out of the way and introduce the 'Vic and Aceveda versus Cruz plot". It seemed really lazy, and a huge disappointment after the high of episode 9. The writers took the boring, easy way out of the plotlines that they'd taken 9 episodes (plus the end of season 5) to build up.
