Yeah, no, I’m not watching this TV show
It’s like Soup Sandwich and Ken Crocheron are the consultants on this thing;
Thanks (I think) to Andy for the link.

That shit will be cancelled in 2 weeks I am betting.
Probably would have been a better movie instead. It reminds me of Stripes except less slapstick and dry humor replaced with emasculated male humor.
Its awful…seriously who the hell green lighted this. Anybody who’s former military and advising on this should be ashamed. Atleast Stripes got some shit right. I guess my big problem is the super fat guy. Eveything else is typical Hollywood, screwing up how the military works.
Andy, Andy, Andy……What the hell are we gonna do with you? Somebody please yank his *dickweed* certification.
Holy crap, who thought this piece of trash up?
Obviously, these people enlisted in the unorganized milita, funded by George Soros to discredit military everywhere.
I thought Andy was funnin’ us so I googled the show. It’s legit. You know how commercials for upcoming TV shows work. They use clips of the best stuff the show offers. So, we’ve seen the highlights. I never cracked a smile. McHale’s Navy was funny. Hogan’s Heroes was funny. Gomer Pyle, USMC was funny. I Dream of Jeannie was funny. Sgt. Bilko was funny. This show is not funny, not even a little bit funny.
Pretty sure they aren’t targeting military to watch this, just the brain dead mouth breathers that gobble up anything that’s thrown at them.
Okay, so the only realistic thing I saw was the Italians showing up in camp and taking their shirts off to parade their muscles…I saw that happen once….except they weren’t quite so buff, and our females weren’t quite so impressed.
Meh…it won’t hold a candle to “Sergeant Bilko” with Phil Silvers…now THAT was a funny series…
Seems like a lot of US Army butthurt here.
F Troop is even better than this slop
Darn…2/17 AirCav has already beat me to the SGT Bilko reference…
Stupid.
I made it through about half of that death spiral for actors show. Holy batshit……..
You got to keep an eye on those AirCav guys, CH. They can be some real sneaky sonsabitches at times. Looks like this was 2/17’s…
I’ll stick to watching reruns of “Tour of Duty” and “Hennessey.”
Here’s a present for you, CH–and anyone else who remembers (or, for that matter, has no clue about) SGT Bilko. in this episode, he meets his match–a WAC. She’s every bit the conniver Bilko is. Classic line from this brown boot Army comedy: “Volunteer? I told you never to use that word in these barracks!”
I don’t know. I like comedies like this. But with all the bad press the Military is getting right now,it might not be a great time for something like this to air. Still looks funny as hell though.
Who knows I’m just a moron at heart.
OK-it sucks, but the whole water skiing behind the tracked vehicle is classic Joe being Joe.
“Stripes” meets “SGT Bilko” meets “F Troop” in the 21st century.
Has potential, if I can overcome the disgust I will have how it may play out. Might be funny.
Having said that, can someone please find “Basic Training” that was done by the History Channel. That’s more realistic.
I have to agree with Valkyrie @19 – it might inspire some people to join up, just for the ride. People really do like stupid entertainment. If they didn’t, “Porky’s” would not be considered a classic…
Oh, laws!! What did I just say!?!?!?!
”Duffel Blog- writers needed on Line 1…
Duffel Blog- writers needed on Line 1…”
I think this show will be called DE-Listed by week 3…
They cancelled Finder for THIS!?!?!?
I thought it was funny, but those out of regs haircuts and fat body 30 yo privates hit a bit close to home.
This shit is just like CPO Sharkey except no one’s laughing….No wait, it’s the same.
Oh wow, this show reeks.
#18: 2/17 AirCav, thanks for the link; it’s been many years since I watched an episode of Bilko; that one was a classic!
Honestly, it is a comedy. We need some laughs. I doesn’t look that bad, at least it isn’t trying to be serious…army wives.
That? Talk about bottom-of-the-bucket CRAP….
Oh for F@#$% Sake!!! Only the idiots in Hollywood could possibly think this is funny.
Not going to lie, I laughed during this trailer. I don’t expect this show to last very long at all but I will watch it anyways. Looks amusing enough watch without expecting an Emmy-winning performance from any of the actors…
Even Polly Shore is weeping watching this trailer.
@32
I did too. The more I think about it however, the more it irritates me. I give it four weeks tops.
And one more thing, and this is speaking straight up.
What CSM would talk directly to a SGT unless said SGT was in charge of his command group team or the command group secretary??
Joe never gets a show. Lets give it a chance at least.
I ‘ll give the show a chance if they all get haircuts and wear their covers outside.
@35, plot point, the Sgts father and the CSM served together.
Mother of god….
BILKO!
This show is better.
So’s this one.
Make it stop….MAKE IT STOP!!!!
What in the holy hell is this piece of crap? You can definitely tell the disconnect between our civilian counterparts and the military. This is atrocious! An the fact that they are airing in during conflicts that are still going on in the world is truly disgraceful and disrespectful. Hey, I like humor as well as the next guy, but this is grade-A crap! Can’t we ever get any type of military humor that is even close to how things really are? Guess I won’t hold my breath! Hell, even Sgt. Bilko, In the Army Now, Stripes and M.A.S.H. was better than this garbage! Awful! Just plain awful!
typical emasculated hollywood crap. White males -must- be the butt of all jokes, because white males are the enemy!
Based on the time I spent at Ft. Bragg, everything seems to be in place here. At least you know it will be more accurate than the “hurt locker”…
I want my 3 minutes back….
What. The. FUCK!!!!!!!! This isn’t even close to Stripes!!! or even SGT Bilko (under rated Steve Martin movie in my books). Watching the trailer was 3:17 of my life I will NEVER get back. What a load of crap. Won’t be watching when it gets canned after two episodes (I hope to God).
@44, I agree. I’d rather watch (and I can’t believe I’m saying this) Pauly Shore than this show.
I watched the trailer a 2nd time and noticed that they mentioned this was a rear-d unit. That makes the trailer alot more accurate, lol.
What in the name of all that is holy?????
What rocket scientist decided to do a military version of Police Academy?
I’m with John, just don’t put an umbrella in their hand.
