Enlisted

what can I say about a show so great? Plenty! Enlisted is a half hour of pure fun, from start to finish the audience is entertained and entertained I mean with great writing and superb acting. Enlisted was cancelled by Fox Television, why? Because of poor promotion and a bad night to air as typically Friday night is a bad night for a show to air. So why did Fox do this to such a great show? Your guess is as good as mine. One can only hope that this gem of a show will be put on DVD so that we all can watch the 13 episodes over and over, which I would do. Enlisted was a show that had heart and it seems Fox only likes to keep shows that are dramatic in nature, not thinking the fans would want a show that actually makes you laugh and cry. So if you have not had the pleasure of watching Enlisted you really should if Fox is nice enough to make a DVD so we can relive the memories. Thanks Fox Television for airing a great show even if it was just 13 episodes.

I absolutely love this show and my husband is in Rear D in the Army for now. So many times watching this we got to laugh at all their job requirements that my husband wished were actually that fun. I've also seen soldiers reflecting each and every character in the show. Its a comedy and I treated it like any other comedy show just waiting for a chance to laugh. Fox canceled this show even though it received high ratings I say hey fox bring it back. These men need a good laugh at the end of a long day. A few of the episodes even had me in tears reminiscing emotions about deployment. Never was a fan of military shows like "Army wives" which I found offending and ridiculous but this never claimed accuracy as their forte but instead embraced the fact it was developed by civilians. They even ran a contest to ask viewers what they missed. Definitely worth the watch.

I just found this show on Hulu and I'm so disappointed there is only 1 season! I rarely laugh out loud at tv shows and often find these types of shows more annoying than funny but Enlisted has great one liners and I laughed throughout each episode. I wish there was more to watch.

Thank goodness I watched this. I needed a good giggle after previously watching one of the worst ever so called comedies I have ever seen....Spoils of Babylon. This new comedy 'Enlisted' was a laugh and nothing to be taken seriously. It should be taken in the same vein as 'Stripes' was back in it's day. I know a lot of serving men and women will love this here in Australia as they don't have their heads up their bums when it comes to a good 'p*ss-take' comedy, which this one seems to be heading that way. Hubby and I both thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely be watching more of this one for the sheer light hearted humour that is intended.

First, I've been in the Army for 18 years. This show truly is awesome. I can find the same personalities from the characters in multiple Soldiers I've met, supervised, and been over the years. The over zealous, always amped troop; the guy filled with potential but barely does the minimum; the hoah guy who is better than everyone else etc.

I read a lot of reviews that said what I was thinking initially until I found out that all of the errors in the first episode were intentional and that a contest had been advertised prior to the air date that invited people to find the ar 670-1 errors. Even Geoff Stults apologizing because he knew how wrong the violations were. He knew this because he and the other cast members went to a miniature basic training and hung out with Soldiers about to deploy who were going through an IES defeat lane.

Bottom line, I know the cast and writers are doing their best to represent the Army while at the same time producing a comedy. After all it's a COMEDY and a good one at that.
