Discussion Which money?
We we haven’t finished the show yet. And we love it. But we laugh every time they say money train money. Oh, you mean the money train money not the piggy bank money, the safe deposit box money, not the mattress money, you are speaking of the money train money. Then we got the blackmail box the not the toy box, not the Amazon box, it is the blackmail box. We don’t want to bring the wrong box or spend the wrong money. Should be a drinking game!

These are my first postings on Reddit. I usually just come here when I am finally watching a buzzy show that I was late to the game on so I can see what others thought. I miss that “water cooler talk”! So if I break protocol or spoil for someone who hasn’t seen I apologize. But you asked! We just finished the second to last episode. As a huge fan of Justified and Uncle Baby Billy, Goggins has wrecked me. My stomach was in knots watching him try to dig a way out. And watching Vic lay it all out there. Even seeing the line “WalMart does have better prices” coming out of Shane’s mouth barely lightened the mood. It just went to heck. And ha ha to Ronnie-the only one who held onto his money. You know, his Money Train Money. And now he has been sold out. Should have learned from the fate of the rest of the strike team and RUN. he survives a face cooking for naught I fear.

That last episode! Come on man! I never really cared for Ronnie, but he got the worst for the one who did the least, really. Vic did him so dirty. And Shane’s death was bad enough, but Jackson was just tragic. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I love that they left Vic in his own version of prison. He is not liking it one bit and Olivia (I think?) is going to make him pay. I really enjoyed the series overall. There were some weak points, but the intensity and the acting skills of the main cast overcame any pacing problems that I perceived. I can’t figure out what to watch next because nothing will compete with the intensity of The Shield! Thanks for your comments and for hanging out with me for a bit!

Someone should make a compilation of every time the words "money" and "train" are said in the show

They definitely do it for our benefit. And I felt like as they show went on they tried less to hide their conversations about it from others around them who might hear it
