Fine start but turns into a mess
The first few episodes are watchable but it soon collapses into an unbelievable mish mash of soap plotlines and bad writing. Geena Davis is the only one who can act and the rest do not convey any sense of their roles. If you liked 'The West Wing' you will not like this - it's it's far too stupid. Incidently, viewing figures went from 17 million to 5.5 million from the start of episode 1 to the end of episode 19 in the US - go figure.

But it is very well written, well acted and while it mostly has the usual upbeat conclusion to storylines, the issues explored bear analysis. Although Woman as War leader is not novel to the Brits!

Philippe is coming home again as Sgt Brandon King in Stop-Loss, this time from the war in Iraq - we get a taste of that conflict in the movie's opening salvo, a firefight in the streets of Tikrit that claims a couple of Sgt...
