No worse than any other program of this type.  My only request is that we get rid of the clowns with the professional voice that exaggerates everything.
Let me modulate my voice down an octave or so.  THERE - NOW - DO - I - SOUND - NAT-URAL?  I actually do freelance voice over work and this show sounds like a it was done by an armature VO talent and writers.

Tell me Micheal Bane isn't involved with this show.  I would hate to insult his work.

I haven't seen the show and the link just takes me to the still photo of some woman singing a shitty song .
But even if MB were involved, he's turned out enough winners that one dud won't hurt his reputation.

I saw it.......... and well, I can honestly say that I saw it.



"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Not the worst show I've ever watched, but WAY over dramatic.

That said some of that stuff would have kicked my a$$ when I was in shape.
When seconds mean the difference between life and death, the police will be minutes away.

You are either SOLVING the problem, or you ARE the problem.

I wrote the original script for ETU, which Mr. Hawke chose to mostly ignore...as was his option.

I am Executive Producer (that means the guy in charge of) of 4 shows, SHOOTING GALLERY, THE BEST DEFENSE, RAPID FIRE and GUN STORIES.

ETU was produced by my partner for TBD, GUN STORIES and RAPID FIRE, Tim Cremin, and I wish him all the best with the series. The ratings will tell the story. The intent of the series is to reach beyond our endemic audience, and I truly hope it succeeds.

'saw' it again while sorting brass with the boys - wasn't too bad - so long as it doesn't get to 'survivor' along the way
Have your musket clean as a whistle, hatchet scoured, 60 rounds powder and ball and be ready to march at a minute's warning.

Serious Comment Alert:

These people are supposed to be on SWAT teams?

It looked to me as only a couple of them could even shoot, which I would think would be the primary skill required.

Or maybe kicking in doors or stomping on kittens  is more important.

Mike, if you only wrote the original script, and have nothing to do with production of this trash heap of a "show" why is it still coming to me in my weekly email updates from - and also on the main page of http://www.downrange.tv/blog/ ?

I just happen to see it on my weekly email update from Downrange and remembered your reply here about not having anything to do with it since.
