If anyone here uses torrents the first "pre-air" episode has already came out.
Looks like it might be ok although for a cop the dude has about as much commonsense as a drugged poodle.
Dead Set was probably the best "zombie" tv series made. (english I know but very good)

I'm watching Dead Set now, last show is on tonight. It's pretty good. And damn those zombies can run!

I was, and still am, a huge fan of The Shield.  From that show, I became interested in its "offspring" The Unit (another Shawn Ryan masterpiece) and am getting back into Sons of Anarchy (Kurt Sutter's episodes of The Shield were the best).  One of my field trainers after I graduated from the Academy would often tell me in reference to dealing with certain types of people..."Sometimes you have to be Vic.  Sometimes you have to be Lem."

I have never liked to read but have done more in the last few years, thanks to reading "Inside Delta Force."  It was amazing how close to Eric Haney's stories that the show was... i.e. the shooting house with live ammo/live "hostages", selection process and other small but noticeable references.

Common sense is very uncommon these days.

True, didn't care for the ending. But over all it was a good show.

MASH without question. Its one of the very few shows that never really gets dated. Its still as funny now as it was in primetime. Very, very few shows can say that.

Of course once he takes the safety off on the Glock everything will be OK.

Nice Smith & Wesson. I wonder how many rounds it holds in the show. Perhaps it has a safety, too. I did notice toward the end that our protagonist was using a BHP. Hmm...

S&W? I thot it was a Python. But then I was watching NFL with one eye.

Based on the trailer I will NOT be a viewer of this show. Too stoopid.
