Valor

Just finished the pilot (pun intended!). OK, no one is going to call this a great show, great pilot, or anything of the like.... HOWEVER, I found it relatively entertaining and full of action. I never served in the military, but it's obvious this show is full of inaccuracies. That is just not enough to dismiss a show. I have also never served as President of the USA, head cutter in a hospital, or chief of police in a big city.... and I still enjoyed many shows where reality is not the cornerstone. It's not supposed to be a Ken Burns documentary. TV by definition is not real (just watch FOX news!!). I watched this show after reading all the critical comments, and while it's not going to be at the top of my list, I will watch more episodes. DETAILS: The writing is not too bad, the acting is OK, camera work and cinematography are mediocre but nothing is so bad that I would turn it off. It's way better than it's current rating, and it does have some potential, and I do love a good military/spec ops show!

Really? This guy wears a beard like he's in a Special Forces unit? Also, why would he wear it in garrison., stateside?

Her ponytail, tights as uniform pants? Yeah, okay. Whatever Hollywood decides I suppose.

Next time get better military advisers.

There are a lot of pitfalls this show could've had which were avoided. It did not go for the whole GI jayne route that it could've had, her being a woman comes up but they haven't made the whole about it. People have complained that it's not realistic for the army and I say that's definitely a good thing. Rules, routine and repetition don't make good TV and outside of combat that's what military life involves. There's some complaints about the main character being eye-candy, so what? Most of the male cast were clearly hired out as eye-candy and I see no complaints about that

Like the show but there are a lot of mistakes in it when cutting from one camera to another and reuse of items and product placement. But again it was entertaining.

Truly awful. The lead is caked in make-up, struts about as if she's on a cat walk in front of her fellow soldiers and officers. She argues at her senior officers instead of respectfully debating an issue. All around spend time apologizing to and for her when she mucks up or has hurt feelings. And the cliché of her just being a strong woman in a man's world is laudable. When you cock things up it's on you and you alone. Stop whinging. Feminists must be cringing at this. The scripts are trite and full on tropes. Realism. Er. Where? People in the armed forces should probably watch this before a battle/maneuver to give them a laugh at it all, if that's the outer perception.
