I watch this sort of show for entertainment. The world can be such a harsh place that I am happy to have something like this to escape into.
I honestly don´t understand why people need something like this to be realistic. If I wanted to watch a show about real SWAT procedures then I´m sure there´s a documentary or reality TV show about it. If you want real life there is always the news. This is no less realistic than Criminal Minds, which I really enjoy too.
I don´t usually leave reviews, but I really think some of them on here are way too harsh. I nearly didn´t watch at all based on the reviews, but I am happy that I did.
I´m only on the 3rd episode and I´m really enjoying it. I like the camaraderie of the team, and that despite their differences they all come together when necessary. The development of the relationships, and now finding out more about the personal lives of each of the team. The filming is great, showing LA at it´s best. And I like the fact that they choose to do things the kind way rather than the LAPD way. I did have a giggle when a suspect walked away from Honchos questioning only to walk into the whole team standing around waiting outside.
Oh, and really enjoying the soundtrack. Looking forward to further developements
