Season 3: What Do You Want to See?

[Pathfinder]

One thing I think the 3 of you need to address is how to deal with topics in any kind of meaningful depth given the magazine format show that seems to be all the rage these days. In the original concept for SG, Mr. Bane was able to explore topics for the entire show. With TBD/TBD:S, either by choice or direction from TOC, the magazine format for the show - plus the commercials limiting you to 22 minutes - seems to work against delving into any topic in depth.

The shows are very good as they are, you guys have done well in spite of the limited time for the show and format. Longer, or more in-depth/focused on a single topic would be better.
 
Just my $.02.

Might be a good Idea to cover pharmacecuticals.   For a worst case situation, people might like to know that antibiotics can be aquired from pet stores, diphenlydramine, (benadryl) is not just for hat fever and allergies, it is also common in motion sickness pills, sleep aids, and night time pain relievers.  That makes it an over the counter sedative, among other uses.  Ibuprofen may not be the best pain killer but it is a pain killer that is also an anti inflammatory.  I can go on all day with examples like this, and I know not every one had the chance to serve as a combat medic or corpsman, so it might be interesting to teach them something that they can use in everyday life not just in a worst case scenario.

Dear Michael J. ,
What I really want to see is " A SEASON 3 "
I know, it's not your fault.
But I'm just saying.
How can a network cancel a great show like this, and not provide funding so the show can go on?
Time slots B.S. and all !!!
Well, keep up the good work you guys are doing, on all your other shows, and hopefully, Best Defense won't have the same fate of the show called "American Shooter".
Good luck and God Bless.

I would really like to see some scenarios involving children. It is when I am out with my family that I feel must vulnerable. After all, everyone goes to the mall, you get separated. Or just the fact that my kids are too young to defend themselves. What would be some good strategies that we could implement help with cohesion in a crisis.

One thing I thought of today that I would like to see on BD season 3: An episode or two dedicated to the mindset and psychological aspects of using lethal force. I know SWAT TV touched on this a bit, but it would be interesting to hear from people that have been involved in shootings, police and civilian, and how they felt at the time as well as suggestion for keeping your head on straight and dealing with the consequences. Maybe bring in a departments psychologist that can talk about common things they hear from officers after a shooting has occurred.

First off, tops on my Christmas wish list is for a 3rd season. Secondly, how about an episode on literature - fictional works, manuals ( military and civilian), any other reading material that might provide value.

Another thing is an update to the fridge as cover-and use a gunsafe.
