I like how it gives you a sense of perspective for what the BP agents face. Every time the camera pans out, you see hundreds of miles of barren county. The smugglers have so many advantages, but the BP guys do some incredible work. With all the violence around the border, their job is becoming even more important.

For the most part the show is pretty realistic to what actually goes down in the field, minus a few things. But its crazy the amount of terrain that the BP has to cover. There is this one ranch near the Rio Grande we patrol on and on our side we have high bluffs while the mexican side is pretty flat. Its quite a cool view to look 360 degrees and see nothing but brush and water.
