Summary: Exciting show with military action
Comment: I was looking for a show that has nothing to do with detectives, CSI, cop, FBI or any law enforcement organization. Then I found a show that's about military stuff (The Unit). This is it. I found what I wanted!
The best thing about this show is the action and setting on each episode. You see new buildings with new faces every time. From Afgan to Iran, Cambodia to Pakistan, Brazil to Mexico..more and more. Whether it's a simple body guarding mission for foreign minister or a real serious rescue mission in a rebel area, I enjoy every bit because the Unit team always pull out surprising moves and strats. Occasionally, unseen military toys and gadgets are revealed. Audience can get a better sense on how they pull off some of the close-to-real missions. I've totally no military background and I enjoy it quite a lot. Those with military background all said it's as close as it can be.
Season 2 is slightly fine tuned compared to season 1. The entire season 1 was a pilot for me. Season 2 starts to get into a bit more story in the army base (family side). The missions are as cool as season 1's. Also, Season 2 is a full season with 23 episodes. Plenty of them to enjoy!

Summary: more great action
Comment: Even more action than the first season. All great actors that complement each other.
Can't wait for Season 3

Summary: Hate the New Theme music
Comment: Otherwise this show never fails to grab my attention. Where something may happen in the first season, the second season will pick up on it in a later episode and then the third. Blane's daughter joins the army and in each season, she returns for an episode. That makes it real for me. And Tiffy's (ugh) affair has been a long and drawn out process. As of 11/16/08, I hope to hear the end of it. But the show itself mixes action with a little soap opera just to make it interesting.

Summary: Little Mini-movies
Comment: I bought The Unit a while back thinking it might be a fun show to watch. My wife, however, had no interest in the show. After watching the first two episodes of season 1, I made her watch, and we're hooked. The only problem is, at the rate we're going, we'll be caught up too soon, and we'll have to wait to watch like the rest of the world!
Season #2 has been as satisfactory as the first. Each episode is like a little mini-movie, but there are enough returning plotlines to keep the viewer interested. (SPOILER ALERT: The "relationship" between the Colonel and Tiffy seems to have disappeared with nary a second word...though admitedly, I'm still not done with season 2 yet.)
So far, my favorite episode has been "Natural Selection" where Bob is forced to keep himself and a translator alive after a helicopter crash. The flashbacks to his own selection serve to prove that this seemingly soft-spoken, and unlikely hero really does have the mettle to make it as an operator.
Occasionally the acting and writing are the tiniest bit thin. It's not often, and really with this kind of series, the story and action more than make up for it. I'd recommend this show to anyone, but warn against sudden addiction!
