Give this series a chance! It is funny, dramatic and has some pretty intriguing actors. I am not particularly enamored with the lead actor. He can be funny and entertaining at times, but lacks the acting chops for the more serious scenes. He also wears more makeup than Farrah Fawcett on Charlie's Angels. YIKES The woman that plays the captain is both beautiful and an excellent actress. She really steals every scene she is in, along with her love interest, who is quietly, a very strong handsome actor. It is entertaining to watch, the story lines are sometimes inconsistent. The supporting cast is good. I would recommend it.
