One of the most irritating (although not serious I suppose) was saying "zero-five hundred" instead of "oh-five hundred" when using military time. Hmmmmm...I don't think I'd notice that. I usually say "oh", but I've heard "zero" and say it occasionally Is one correct?

Never watched it, flipped by it a few times.
I got the distinct impression that they had deliberately frumped-up Geena Davis to more closely resemble Hillary.
I have never seen her looking as bad as she does on this show.

NBC tends to kill military related shows after a single season.

Maybe it changes from service to service? USCG has always used "oh" not "zero." Even Dear Hubby hoots when they say "zero."

It actually had pretty good ratings--so this hiatus has be something besides ratings.

What did Austin Powers say? "That's a man, baby!"

no one knows who will be the next president or whether America is ready for a female president.
I can tell you categorically that America is not ready for a female president. There is a war underway. I don't believe Americans will turn to a female at this time to lead us out of this situation. In fact there is no female in the pool of likely candidates that is morally strong, loyal to the Constitution, and an expert military tactician, qualities we desperately need in the white house. The only way it could happen is if there was massive voter fraud.

I saw a promo for this show the other day, and my first thought was, "That show's still on??" Not that I ever bothered to watch it.

I thought it was canceled a long time ago. Shows you just how much (or little?) I paid attention to it. Me too. I saw the preview the other night for tonight's episode and thought to myself, "I haven't seen a preview in awhile. I thought they canceled it."

I liked Davis in the Long Kiss Goodnight, a classic.

Now a 24 style government program might be interesting. If Ted Kennedy threatens a fillibuster which will consume the next 12 episode, Jack Bauer could just kneecap him and demand an immediate vote. Now that episode would get ratings through the roof.
Kinda disappointed in 24 making the President the bad guy. Weak, vacillating, and unsure, okay, but actively evil?

I'll admit I watched it --- I wanted to see what the other side was thinking.
Wow --- what an absolutely boring series, with arrogance added in.
We have a president who mothers her staff by reprimanding them for running in the hall. UGH.
And don't get me started on the "first family". An arrogant first husband who calls Air Force One "OUR PLANE" and is pissed that the republican speaker is on THEIR PLANE. Gag !!
The kids ---- boring, snotty and unreal.
Add all that to the fact that president Geena (I think the name is mac or something) always solves every problem, makes this series way too stupid to spend any more time on it.
Just my 2 cents from someone who did watch, mainly to see what they were going to come up with, but was also disappointed 'cuz this series could have been done very well.

Oh it's dead. DEE - EEE - AY - DEE DEAD! They bring it back on Holy Thursday, prior to Easter weekend which is a down time as far as viewing is concerned. I never watched it anyway, just remember the heavy heavy promo-ing while watching Monday Night Football.

Just imagine that network TV put on a show about a real Conservative president.actually, I think a show about a liberal president & administration would be a hit - IF it was true-to-life. Sex with interns, corruption - rank hypocrisy on almost any issue, money & power before honor or issues - double-dealing with wacko liberal activists. Give me a team of good writers & I guarantee we would pull more than a 15 share.

So would I, but there was only one "Iron Lady"! I certainly don't see any American equivalent on the horizon!

everyone remember how the media HYPED this show. I don't even own a TV and I remember it was on raidio, internet, print media.... Just goes to show that all the media in the world can not suck people into a sucky show...
To: Babu
I have never watched this show, but I have watched The West Wing. I'd appreciate if someone could clue me in on how the two shows compare.
