A lot of the reviews for this show seems to expect accuracy. Come on, how much fiction involving the military is accurate even when it is a central part of the story. I have read enough military fiction to know that it is horrible as far as accuracy. How many times do you see thousands of bullets fly at the hero and yet is not hit. This is the reason I do not read contemporary military fiction, it has little to do with reality, and TV is worse. This show is very tongue in cheek, and so why expect accuracy, any more than James Bond. Come on, they wanted to come up with a scenario that was extremely unlikely. Attacking Pakistan is about as unlikely as any, yet can come up with a weak rational to make it somewhat believable. This is a Sci-Fi, and should not be taken seriously, any more than faster than light travel. After all what is a nuclear ballistic submarine doing picking of a seal team. Also, what is a submarine doing with enough ordinance and uniforms to look like a combat team? The accuracy of submarine operations is not central in this show. If you have a nuclear submarine you can stay underwater for a hell of a long time, and have plenty supplies to do that. Police shows are horrible in their accuracy, yet people accept it despite the fact that they are supposed to be quite serious. Then there are the White House based stories.
The show actually has a pretty interesting story with lots of twists and turns. It is a great setup for conspiracies, and there is a good bit of action. There is also the issues of the crew dealing with their loyalties, the islanders dealing with being cut off from the world because of the submarine. I find it an interesting story. Compared to the TV show Revolution, it is so much more accurate and interesting.
