The Unit, Smith

* So her fiance dies on a mission, and the military wife gets squat? That's so wrong. No wonder it's so hard to get people to join the military.

* The thing I love about this show is the dynamic between the wives and their husbands. I have a friend whose brother is in the Air Force, and he has one of the "jobs he can't talk about ever." The stress endured by the wives and the strain on the marriage must be tremendous. The scenes where Kim is trying to deal with the reality that Bob might die on a mission and leave the family with nothing were really well done.

* Meanwhile, we have Bob, who's trying to grieve-but-not-grieve for his fallen friend. He seemed so young and scared in these scenes, and it really brought home the reality of what he does for a living. And damn, does Scott Foley look good in a uniform.

* I think Bob lied, and he does have a burn box.





* Tom, Jeff, and kittens!!!! Over-the-top cute!!!! Jeff and Tom have the best dynamic on the show. I watch it mostly for them.

* Hope, honey. Confront your husband with your suspicions, because you're annoying the heck out of me by following him around.

* Wow, Hope's only been out for 5 months? So I guess Bobby was "on the job" the whole time? Her absence certainly explains why she's just now getting wise to Bobby's criminal activities.

* I feel bad for Macy. She's sweet (and hot). I almost think she'd rather know Sean is dead than have to believe he's screwing around.

* Joe is starting to grow on me. Macy loves him, and he loves her, too. Despite that, we all know this won't end well. Charlie already wants Macy out of the picture, and when Macy finds out Joe is lying to her... major loose end. She'll probably be killed off.

* Tom, Annie is no good for you. Listen to Jeff, honey. He loves you more than she does.

* Jeff looked grossed out when Annie put her underwear on in front of him.

* Uh oh. The big guy is still looking for Jeff. I know Jeff can handle him, but it would be nice if Tom were there to back him up.

* Shirtless!Jeff!!!

* Okay, Annie is my least favorite character. She's slutty, annoying, and unsympathetic. At least with the others, there's something about their characters that makes them human. Annie is just a carboard bad girl.
