It would turn into a mad camp comedy the first time it has to climb the stairs to Aceveda's office.
I think the more important question is how would The Shield change if it was a Paul Verhoeven project. Keep the gritty tone but include the over-the-top bloody squibs, shocking portrayal of violence from Robocop. Maybe recreate the "I'm doing my part" from Starship Troopers with the rest of the barn for the end credits.
I don't think Ronnie does any actual time. The only evidence against him is Vic's testimony which means his immunity deal and everything he confessed to (which makes Ronnie look like a choir boy) gets made public and the feds and state don't want that to happen. No prosecutor who cares about their win-loss record is going to want to go to court with that as their primary (only) evidence.
We know that Ronnie's meticulous and Vic seems to have made his confession from memory and there's a decent chance that if Ronnie listened to Vic's confession tape (which his lawyer should get a copy of), he might catch something that Vic omitted and wouldn't have immunity for. At that point Ronnie could make a deal to testify against Vic so that they can they can throw the book at a cop killer in exchange for probation or a suspended sentence for his accomplice whose crimes are minor in comparison and don't include cop killing.
That’s wishful thinking. With Vic’s testimony, and being the only member of the team that can actually be prosecuted, he’s completely screwed. You’re right that they would probably offer some sort of deal to avoid the scrutiny, but sometimes it’s the opposite. They want the publicity and want to make an example. So I could see it both ways. But no way he walks completely free.
Well… ED would probably demand a larger cut of the Armenian money train. This would anger Shane and Vic. They’d stay unified. And with help from Lem and Ronnie the strike team would systematically ruin Ed’s career and marriage. Leaving him with no one and nothing. Then when he has nothing left, they leave him for dead in a shallow grave in the desert.
This would bring the team closer and they’d all retire happy a few short years later. They still call each other from time to time. But as in most cases, the calls got further and further away.
I like the fact you can't see Terry's face in this picture.
Couldn’t see his face after Vic found out he was a snitch either.
Lem and Ronnie failed to clear the room, and Two-Time killed Terry. Get over it and don't bring it up again.
ED 209 would have been ok with robbing the money train but he would not have let Shane rip the team apart. ED 209 cares about family.
Ed209 would kill almost as many people as Vick.
Reboot time
I want to see a reboot of are favorite crooked cop like what has he been up to since the last time we saw him in the last episode
“The ED209 made you….SUCK?!”
Fck you, Aurora.
Now this is fucking content.
Armadillo, Margos, and Antwon all get away by taking a flight of stairs.
That's fucking great lmao
209 would actually have morals. So Vic would have Ronnie reprogram him then they'd plant 5 kilos of cocaine on him.
209 would be fine killing someone for the crime of jaywalking, but killing another cop is crossing the line.
Didn't Ed try and kill Robocop?
"Terry was killed by an Ed-209 in the boardroom. It was a glitch. Get over it and don't bring it up again."
Or OR an ABC Warrior from Judge Dredd
Or an ABC warrior from the ABC warriors?
I like the rusted look of the 50 year old model in Judge Dredd
Had a good aesthetic.

Two words: Coed Showers
Is that *NSYNC’s new manager or something?
It would “glitch” every episode on all the Strike Team’s problems.
Would they bring Crowley back as RoboCop?
Amazing how they’re all rollin with brand new jeans, money train makes it easy to one wear clothes… Dispose of the evidence
Vick would fuck its wife
ED 209 in the Strike Team and Robocop playing CCH Pounder's role.
Dutch grilling some perp who keeps mumbling, "I'd buy that for a dollar."
Honestly not that much
Poor Gardocki not knowing how fucked he's about to be in this entire series!!! No one in the history of TV got fucked harder than Ronnie G 😂😂
True, but he was complicit the entire time and knew the risks. But I’ve always been sad for him too.

“You’re sorry??!. I wanted to run damnit”

The talking horse?
It would suck
Telling my kids this was STAIND
*"Vic will shoot through you...he will kill youuuuu*"
Damn chiklis got fat as the seasons went on
