We've just gotten this show in India, I'm already hooked.

Though, it's admittedly not as powerful watching it out of context on Youtube. It only hurts after 7 seasons of build. I've watched the entire series twice, and lost it at this song both times, if that's any testament to the power of this show.

I absolutely fucking lose it every time that song plays. I didn't cry when Shane died. Didn't cry when Ronnie got fucked over. Didn't even cry during this final sequence. It's not that those scenes weren't moving - They were. But once "... Long Time Ago" starts, I can't hold it anymore. It's over. Once you hear that it's really over. No more Vic, Shane, Claudette, Aceveda, no one. I mean, you've spent years getting to know these people, to FEEL them. Once that song starts, you know they're gone.

..When you turn out the light, walk out the Door.... The show was more than a simple TV Show in every Way --- But the End ---- That was Art

Despite everything Vic did I feel sorry for him. No one wants to admit it but the good he did far outweighed the bad . Killing the cop was messed up but Terry was going to have him put in prison so I'm not really mad about it.Vic Mackey for life!

@blizzy00 Yup totally agree with you there. Anytime anyone mentions to me how great something like CSI is, I quickly point out that Vic did it all the way it should be done - kicking doors and smashing faces and still managing a top story with intriguing characters and relationship dynamics. Go Vic! That's real police work!

@ViceCityVacation i actually thought it was one of the more consistent shows that kept at a steady pace throughout each and every season and ended on a high. I would hope there would be life of some sort for a show featuring further exploits of Vic. It could be done. Definitely one of my favourite (perhaps favourite) shows of all time along with The Sopranos and Breaking Bad. Shawn Ryan brought something really great to the screen which won't be forgotten.

What's left for Vic anymore?

I loved this show, the ending was awesome, but super sad too, Shawn Ryan did a great job, and I agree, Chiklis shoulda won an emmy. I wish maybe there would be some way that they could continue it, with them somehow getting ronnie gardockie out or something. This was a powerful show, great cast and characters, shield forever!

The reason alot of people say Sopranos #1 , is cause it came first. It kick-started everything....OZ, The Wire, Breaking Bad, SOA, Boardwalk Empire and this show. While it wasn't the most consistent, seasons 4 & 5 get very stetchy, it does something very well alot of the others didn't do so well....the non-crime stuff. Family issues, marriage issues, puberty, American psychiatry culture, evrything. BB seems to be the only one without a bad season, so far. Infact, it's the only one getting better
How Chiklis didn't win an Emmy just for this last scene is beyond me. The guy ran through just about every human emotion in 3 minutes without saying a single word.
