This is an unbelievable show.The way the story develops I thought was excellent and Ramon, who plays Lopez, is an incredible character and actor, especially in episode 7 of season 1.I've seen a few bad reviews and I think (not just with this show) people concentrate on the specifics and let it ruin it for them. Like how gamers say unrealistic games ruins them. Shut up and just enjoy it for what it is.This show has action, drama, a bit of comedy every now and then. It has secrets and lies and when there are scenes involving the secrets/lies like when Jessica finds Ryan's bag towards the end of season 1 with pictures of him and Javier it keeps me hooked on what may happen next.Since it seems good shows get cancelled I'm not expecting a season 2 but I really hope there will be, especially with how season 1 ended.Truly incredible show, I wasn't actually going to watch this as I'm not into the whole gang thing too much, but I saw some of the actors in it such as, Sung Kang, Terry O'Quinn and I'm not sure what his real name is but Sucre from Prison Break and gave it a chance and man I am so glad I did.

I just spent my entire day watching this and could not stop thinking START TO FINISH how undeniably epic it really is. I really really loved the series SHIELD and I rate this AS good after Gang Related's first season. Before I watched the season I read that Fox had cancelled a season two and I was thinking there must be a reason... But there isn't. Watch it and you will see this is a series that needs a second series after being as good as it was in the first season.I must admit at the beginning I wasn't SO sure about this because RZA was in it, but you don't even realise it as you proceed through the series.There are literally so many moments when I literally clapped and shouted 'SO BOSS' or 'BOSS MODE OHHHHHH S***' which are similar reactions I only have in movies like Scarface or series' like Breaking Bad... (Spoiler : There is a scene where Javier Acosta just takes out the boss of the Metas and 2 of his men and I was just thinking Jesus Christ this is insane, Fox are truly massive massive idiots)I extremely recommend watching this although you may become upset as Fox cancelled a second season, which they are very very very stupid for doing.. I would literally pay to see a second season of this they simply cannot leave it where it is.Rating on IMDb - 10/10 Rating I think it deserves - At least an 8.8 - 9.0

From the pilot on, this did catch my attention. It is fast paced, action packed, thrilling. Acting is good. With Ramon Rodriguez, Jay Hernandez(both whom I am a huge fan of), Terry O'Quinn, RZA, Sung Kang and Cliff Curtis. I had huge expectations with them all being in this, they did not let me down. Guaranteed quality work from all cast. Every episode I am waiting to air. All episodes have their own story that grows the series, and the continuous line underneath. In all, the story line is different a bit from the usual, which adds its own twist and flavour. I can't wait to see how this will turn out. Overall acting is good, action scenes well done, car chases. My score for this, perfect 10.

First of all, this show has so many haters, and they are all 50+ old farts that drink a shot of Port with their coffee whilst reading Moby Dick for the 35th time every night just before sleep.. They cannot relate in any way to the show, which is understandable.. The Black & White TV sets they watch it on doesn't show the tone of the Latino's well.. ;) Personally, I think it is well written, well acted and keeps you wanting more.. Anybody that trash talks this show should stick to their Collectors Edition of Schindler's List and that Brad Pitt movie about life.. If you like movies like "Blood In Blood Out, American Me and Colors" you are sure to enjoy this show as much as me.. Waiting eagerly for a 24 episode Season 2 Announcement..
