    I have only seen the previews, but it looks a little interesting. I just don't know how I feel about advertising to the general public about what some academys are like...

    Belive it or not, they probably cannot get enough qualified people to apply. I know that to the common viewer it looks bad, but if you can make it out of that academy, you can probably take care of yourself in good 'ol Los Angeles.

    Still interesting to look at. I was in the Army for 12 years, so i can see the reasons those guys act the way they do.

    Good show. My academy was nothing like that, but it did remind me of boot camp.
