Weekly discussion for "The Unit"

[rack04]

I've been a fan of this show since day one. So far this season has started out pretty slow. Thoughts?

I too have been a fan for a while now. The first thing that irritated me was them changing the opening theme song last season.

As far as this season goes, I think it's starting to build up. After seeing previews for next week, its obvious that the teenage girl is going to really put a wrench in the relocation plan.

The BIGGEST problem with the Unit is it's only on once a week.

I get where you coming from saying it's been a little slow, but I'd say they are trying to do more character development and give you a really deep plot this season.

Not liking this years so far... They tried to come in with a bang on the first plot. The relo is confusing me. But the new girl in the Unit, she more than makes up for it... She needs to keep talking in the fake E. European accent.

Last nights episode was pretty good. I think the show will turn around. Next weeks episode looks promising.

[rack04]

Am I the only one that doesn't like the wives involved in The Unit's business?

[Don Fernando]

I still download every episode and watch it (no use of downloading it otherwise ofcourse)

Another one bites the dust.

damn you CBS.... 9.6 million people watching aint enough ..... *shakes head*

At least dollhouse survived... but frankly I'm a whedonite and I still would have prefered the unit!

I have been a fan of this show since it started. This years is not the best but it's still better than most shows out there. The wives tend to diminish the real concept of what the show is all about,,,they tend to be a bit whiny and bring too much estrogen into a testosterone driven action program. I think it was better when they did each show as an individual show instead of drawing out this thing they like to do,,a continuing saga that wanes. Wish they would let the new girl get more action time,,,always a nice bit of testosterone driven female action.

I think following the sucess of prison break, heroes, 24, etc etc etc, they decided to try the "watch it over week or miss the story line" attempt at getting viewers..... I agree however. The core value of teh show was special forces trigger time. The wives got overplayed. when people start whining, shows get canceled. (that was the #1 thing I hated about terminator - too much whining, not enough shooting)

[rack04]

Started watching reruns again and it has reminded me how much I miss this show.

[akakirby]

I wish another channel (preferably cable maybe FX) would pick this show up and get rid of all the chick crap and turn the show into what it was meant to be a bad ass special forces show with lots of trigger time!

I miss this show, but they always take away my good ones.
