5. We've watched it. Still waiting to make up our minds; few issues.

The dialogue can be really bad and really cheesy at points.

Navy commercial is one way to describe it. Or the rah rah Navy
talk would have fit well into the types of shows I saw as a child
in the early to mid 60s.

Some of the plot premises have been interesting, but spoiled by the dialogue a bit.

Hubby couldn't understand at all why big guns weren't used instead of little explosives
in the last show; the entire premise of being stuck struck him as odd and I had to agree.
