Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
You should check the show out. It's pretty good.
It's on my radar since Lila from Dexter is/was in it.
A person's own name is the single most important word to him/her; it is intimately tied to his/her identity as an individual.
I don't know. I don't really like my name, but it certainly has power over me. If someone begins by using my name, it means that whatever follows is probably important and also probably bad because why else would it be extra necessary for me to pay attention.
What about the A-Team?
Pretty sure they were only doing things for other people's benefit. Was it ever considered how they sustained themselves?
Now, the Sopranos were out and out criminals who took advantage of good people and individuals. The Winchesters defraud big businesses and perform small-scale hustles against people we're not supposed to feel bad for, because they were gambling anyway.
I don't watch Weeds or Breaking Bad, but the theory holds that they're consensual type crimes (oh! Hung and Diary of a Call Girl or whatever also count in this category).
In The Shield, were there innocent individual victims? But we weren't supposed to be loving on the bad cops, were we?

Yes. And a lot of innocent bystanders.

My gut reaction is to say "no" but I'm trying to think of what word would be more important and can't think of any. But then I think it's kinda' silly to try to reduce one's identity to a single word - I mean, no single word is gonna match my identity, except possibly my name, but so what?

Yeah, I don't know. They were generally on the run, though. All I really remember about the A-Team was having to break Hannibal out of the big house, since that's how we talked about getting my grandfather from the nursing home for the day...
And Murdoch from the mental hospital...I watched way too much of that show at one time.
I don't watch Weeds
You should rectify this. I just started the series on Netflix Streaming and it's HIGH-larious.
Pun totally intended. Duuude.
But they sure broke a lot of traffic laws....
And they weren't exactly slaves to physics.
How about Firefly? They weren't averse to illegal smuggling.

They transported and hid fugitives.
