I can not stand that show, and its mainly because of him.
Not only that, it's yellow. The entire show has a "yellow" tint to it and I hate yellow.

I'm with you. I really like the show as well. The format of starting with the "penultimate" scene, then backtracking and concentrating on what lead to the conflict is very cool, very different. I like it.

I can overlook the gun SNAFUS cause they're pretty pervasive no matter what the show.

I like to use scenes like that with my kids and make them tell me what’s wrong with it. I consider it part of firearms training. Being able to tell what’s wrong or “why that won’t work” on TV shows and movies is a game they love to play.

So far there’s only been one movie, that I know of at least, where the gun handling is correct but it’s R rated and my kids shouldn’t be watching those yet. That movie being Collateral.

Re: What are your movie pet peeves re: guns?

Was watching an episode of "Flashpoint" on Netflix. In one of the earliest episodes, the blond sniper sits, waits, has the solution all with the bolt handle on the rifle in the up position.
