Enlisted

Thank goodness I watched this. I needed a good giggle after previously watching one of the worst ever so called comedies I have ever seen....Spoils of Babylon. This new comedy 'Enlisted' was a laugh and nothing to be taken seriously. It should be taken in the same vein as 'Stripes' was back in it's day. I know a lot of serving men and women will love this here in Australia as they don't have their heads up their bums when it comes to a good 'p*ss-take' comedy, which this one seems to be heading that way. Hubby and I both thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely be watching more of this one for the sheer light hearted humour that is intended.

This show has made my entire life. I was at Ft. Knox when it was cancelled. Sooooooooo.... disappointing. They took it off the air for more of the same boring other shows. I am hoping there is a comeback season. I would actually pay money to see that. I do not usually LOL but when I do, Enlisted is on. The show is not in sync with Army regs, but really? Who cares. The show is a great comedy. If one is too uptight to see that... then have a little laughter in life by watching enlisted. The actors in the show are so great. Good character actors and true to their roles. There are actual army time situations that are light hearted and even some that are heart felt.

Let me start off saying that I know next to nothing about the US military so Im purely looking at this from an enjoyment factor. i started this show having no idea really what it was about (or even that it was a comedy) but I found it really fun. it feels like it could verge on being stupid but I haven't found that yet. I love the relationship between the brothers, it's both sweet and cheeky and there's a lot of love there. I also like how they do cover real issues such as how soldiers can feel returning from a war zone. This issue was treated with respect which I approved of. Overall I love it and will definitely keep watching

Found the show to be family friendly, hilarious and as a family member of a soldier, refreshing to have a show that embraces my heart & funny bone. I wish there were more episodes. Made the whole family laugh even after moments of sadness & fear. Perfect cast. Thank you all for giving us smiles, tears & bellyaching laughs!!

First, I've been in the Army for 18 years. This show truly is awesome. I can find the same personalities from the characters in multiple Soldiers I've met, supervised, and been over the years. The over zealous, always amped troop; the guy filled with potential but barely does the minimum; the hoah guy who is better than everyone else etc.

I read a lot of reviews that said what I was thinking initially until I found out that all of the errors in the first episode were intentional and that a contest had been advertised prior to the air date that invited people to find the ar 670-1 errors. Even Geoff Stults apologizing because he knew how wrong the violations were. He knew this because he and the other cast members went to a miniature basic training and hung out with Soldiers about to deploy who were going through an IES defeat lane.

Bottom line, I know the cast and writers are doing their best to represent the Army while at the same time producing a comedy. After all it's a COMEDY and a good one at that.
