  1. As I understand the history on the 1967-1970 drafts the USMC turned up and asked for volunteers and if not enough young men volunteered at that point of official induction, they just snatched a few from going into the US Army. Volunteers towards the 70s went in with guarantees of duty outside of Southeast Asia and hoped to hold out without their unit getting emergency deployment orders. How someone trying to time their enlistment could not know that brothers would not serve together in that era was a big miss.
  2. So the last promo push seems to be all Adamantium. If you are a MCU completist you have to come see this. But once again because we know of the appetite of Disney+ needing new streaming content the billion-dollar days are over.
  3. I was on Peacock on the way to Las Vegas when I saw the promo. I gave it a try and we enter with the surveillance crew at another casino. Weird. We have a serial killer mom who quit after her son/student got caught. A twist too far. I guess I'll check out the second when they clean up after the pilot and introduce the soldier in the promo pictures Into the show as our disgraced FBI profiler was being brought in I was wondering where was the best, all media viewers now know that you bring in a Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Sam Gerard to run the manhunt, only to be given a CIA officer with two off book helpers. I get that the locals probably know that they live in an USAF nuke missile range but Mr. CIA using Department of Defense credentials e on the local police like he was NCIS or something instead of her FBI badge seemed stupid. I read a novel series featuring a Marine Corps officer working for the OSS in WWII and they gave him Deputy Marshal credentials under the theory that if he flashed the FBI it would draw to much attention back then. When today given all the secrets the DOD I.D. or CIA man just did. With our Bureau of Prisons, or is he a private contractor guard? And from the promo pictures some sort of soldier joining the team we are given a murdering former FBI agent as the warden. Exactly how many were able to just walk out? The premise seems to call for multi episode hunts, not an escaped convict of the week. So the killers may be bad, but so are we with secret experiments on the presumed dead condemned. It seemed to suggest that we learned from most of the killers but some are thought to have gotten worse. Being in super-duper max how would they know? Did the CIA release them in target locations unable to query US fingerprint and DNA databases to create havoc?
  4. I think it is a long time TV trope. From the single fathers of the 60s to The Brady Bunch where nobody from the boys dead mother or the girls dead father showed up that I can remember.
  5. It did seem to be on a Law & Order arrest to conviction time schedule. Our catfishing/identity theft/serial killer crew. Dana was the only hero here. Dude gets beat down with a stick but finds her with an ax and takes the phone, the phone. I expected her ax to take down the boss when he turned towards Kat's gun to save her son. Breden himself went from breaking in a detective's house with superspy like knowledge and abilities.
  6. Okay that's a "show" reason. I was thinking of Band of Brothers when a newly promoted battalion commander, Major Winters had the regimental commander Colonel Sink stopping him from personally moving forward to keep an attack by one company going. The Chief being more the regimental commander in this major emergency than the next level lower of the Major Winters equivalent Captain Herrmann Earlier we had the new Captain begging to get out training mode and move towards the fire because the Chief was there. With the Chief going down the tunnel to swing a hammer with the new Captain who was the Chief over the entire fight?
  7. So a replay of his other franchise the Law & Order squad LT has to be a woman to balance out the power dynamics? I guess, as in New York's Third Watch the Chicago FD firefighters are seen as elite over the paramedics. Los Angeles based firefighter shows back to Emergency! have placed the paramedic-firefighters in the superior role. And today I see folks complaining about them on The Rookie and 9-1-1.
  8. I saw it from the beginning. At the end Captain Benson's working a confession out of him was worthy of Chief Johnson. Of course there Brenda Lee really didn't care about the victims just closing the case.
  9. They let West in didn't they.
  10. I see the FBI, I guess no longer the other "probie", is back. Another crossover episode repurposed to be part of the mothership?
  11. I would guess that the allocution of suicide by daughter would have the insurance company trying to hold to the suicide as if he pointed an unloaded gun at law enforcement and refuse the widow and brother survivor benefits.
  12. We don't have to give them ideals they are chasing 9-1-1
  13. Well after they did go through the American citizen requirement for Ziva I knew for a while they went the other way with Gibbs tried to bluff off the real-life mandatory retirement age for federal law enforcement and the physical liabilities that come with fighters getting older. It is hard to give up a popular cast member in order to keep a show on the air. I just read the age given for Special Agent Parker and wondered if that was a reason given for the latest transfer to NCIS?
  14. Nobody likes the bosses. And being suspended she is no longer a boss. But really outside of her missing persons squad and the computer sentries I wouldn't expect the rank and file to know about her suspension.
  15. She wasn't a big enough recognizable of a star for the size of the role as a first responder and after suggesting a slight personal relationship with Sergeant Platt giving the victim deserved it vibes
