I like it.  I don't know how realistic it is, but it's cool.  It reminds me of a video game but put into a reality show setting.

I saw it on Netflix instant, it looked pretty cool, so I watched it.  Aside from the star being a bit full of himself (whether or not it is deserved), it's really good.  Only season 1 is on Netflix, but I don't know if they made/are making a second season.

I did notice that eye protection discipline was REALLY bad, and since everybody was using simunitions, that could have been tragic.



ETA: I'd like to see a spinoff where civilian shooting enthusiasts are pitted against the similar opponents and scenarios, maybe made a bit more fitting for a group of armed civilians (terrorist attack, gangs after a hurricane, etc.).

They start a new season and not tell me??

I found it very entertaining. Staged, but entertaining. Like the sniper one where the target just walks outside and hangs out until he gets shot? And most of the 'enemy' seem to have excellent creds (deployments, combat, etc.) but just acted a little too 'ho-hum'.

But overall, a good show. I wish they would come out with more.

That one was pretty obvious.  The rest of the show was pretty convincing though.  As for the guys with creds being ho-hum, keep in mind some of those exercises were multiple-day ordeals.  You can't be 100% for very long.
