E Ring

"Easily one of the best shows on network television," raves some guy who doesn't get his name in a sound-byte promo.
The show gives us a glimpse of the politics of decision-making inside the Pentagon, probably slightly exaggerated to some degree but right on overall.
And, they don't use fake names of countries, like Booga-booga-stan.
They talk about real places, like Iran and Burundi.
Throw in Trevor Rabin's soundtrack and you've got a doozey.
Unfortunately, it's too smart for the "Dude, Where's My Car?" crowd and probably won't last a year.
But I'll enjoy it while it lasts.
