This show was simply amazing!
I am a huge fan of covert special forces shows like The Unit. I had never even heard about the E-Ring until I stumbled upon it by accident.
I am sure real life procedure is different, but I dont care. I found the politics and procedures to be 99% believable.
Ken Robinson, the consultant on this show actually WAS Benjamin Bratt's character at one time. I am sure many items are totally classified and Robinson had to change many details so he would not go to jail...but the essence of the truth and the way things really work were there. I truly believe that. I found the entire show to be so fascinating.
ALL the actors did a great job, especially Dennis Hopper. I think it was one of his best roles, actually.
David McKenna, the main writer really hasn't done much since, which is such a pity. Same goes for Ken Robinson who I feel has MANY stories yet to tell.
I feel the need to watch the episodes all over again almost immediately. I like it that much. I did re watch the pilot which I thought was one of the best episodes.
