Future Weapons

[AppleCello]

Seen the show? Some nice entertainment. Anyhow, on March 5th 9pm eastern on discovery, the episode airing has a segment on the F/A-18 Super Hornet and another on the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower.

There is also a segment on the Osprey in an upcoming episode. Good way to fill some downtime.

The host of the show is an unbelievable tool who renders the show nearly unwatchable. A guy I hang with here says he was just as bad while in the teams.

The few times I have seen the show, I've thought it was pretty good. I never noticed that the host was a toolbag, but then again I was too busy drooling over the cool weaponry and big explosions.

Yeah i definitely noticed that, but always attributed it to the producers/directors/writers or whatchyamacallems of the show made him act like that. Would'nt be suprised if he was always like that though. Hunter Ellis>Him, except i just found out Hunter was on on survivor. -15 points.

Yeah, the host is a tool and a lot of the footage/info is made into some of the other specials on various weaponry. That being said, I feel it's worth wading through all the bullsh!t to see some of the stuff that's exclusive to the show, even if I spend part of the time wishing the host would forget which way to point the muzzle.

The sad thing is that if you had the military channel, all of these shows are six months old. And I agree with above, they need to swap him with the tactical to practical guy...

Someone told me that the host was an ex-SEAL.

 

[Slammer2]

I wont make comments about the guy, but its a cool show. Especially those late night repeats when nobody else is awake and the posting slows down on AW.

Reading comprehension will work wonders for you.

Reading comprehension will work wonders for you.

Unless you know "the teams" refers to SEALs, reading comprehension could get you anywhere from baseball to Mr. T and his friends...

It's a vocab issue, clearly.

Agreed that the host is a tool, I can't stand listing to him, otherwise the show would be cool.

Actually they've said on the show (or maybe in the previews) many times that he's an ex-navy seal.

 

[Slammer2]

I believe he says it in the intro/opening song-and-dance thing each show



Edit: I'm contributing to me hating this thread. Back to the F-18s and the Ospreys

Crikey...!

Well I think it is vague. It says he has worked with Navy Seals. I "worked" with Navy Seals. Sure it was a silly 2 day midshipman thing but I still worked with them. To me it just seems like an odd way of saying it

 

[FMRAM]

^^No it says that he was a SEAL sniper...
