"The Unit" follows a covert team of Special Forces operatives as they risk their lives on undercover missions around the globe, while their families maintain the home front. Part of the show's focus is the effect that the group's missions have on the guys' wives and girlfriends.

2.5/5
I know that the show's producers tell both sides of the story to maximize the audience, but in my humble opinion, it's these at-home dilemmas that keep The Unit from being a spectacular show. Go to Full Review Cynthia Fuchs PopMatters Oct 11, 2018
9/10
The series underscores how the military works, ideologically, morally, and emotionally, how forces can remain dedicated even when they question commanders or commands. Go to Full Review Seth Freilich Pajiba May 31, 2018

Apr 27, 2019 Season 2 takes a downturn, IMO. It's definitely still watchable, but it gets into generic action territory and strains credibility. Season 1 was pretty realistic. This one is like a "Hurt Locker" version of the military. I hope season 3 picks up. I was *really* impressed with the 1st season. See more Read all reviews
