This might actually work, a military medical drama, hell yeah.

National Geographic had a reality program about this about in Iraq. It was pretty good. A lot of blood thou as usual.

I didn't realize this was a comedy. The only review I've read so far was by a veteran and it was not very positive. The basic criticism was that it's dumb and not in a good way but I haven't seen it myself yet so I'll reserve judgment until they do. I think it was aired tonight so it should be on the DVR to watch tomorrow.

From what I've seen from some of the trailers and what the show has been written by the critics it's supposed to be a modern day M.A.S.H.

First episode had big problems. The biggest was cramming too much into the first episode. Have fun, draw me in, let me start liking the characters before getting heavy. Next problem is all the weirdly awkward female empowerment stuff like constantly masturbating, uncomfortably saying pu$$y, clit, etc. The guy playing a colonel looked like they borrowed him from the catering truck, terrible actor. Token angry black man. Token naive jewish kid. Handing weapons over to locals, riding on the helicopter hook, trading drugs for hash, none of it was funny. There are so many veterans needing jobs, hire some, get some authenticity. What a wasted premise.

I enjoyed...

Were follow up episodes any better?

If the writers from Superstore were tasked to reboot an Afganistan MASH show...
There ya go.

I thought episode 1 was a good start, but I haven't watched episode 2 yet. All the MASH talk got me hooked on watching MASH season 01 this past week.
