I came across The Unit by accident and have been hooked ever since. The concept is great and makes you want to just get up and enlist.
My only drawback is that the DVDs only play well on my PC. On my DVD player, the third and fourth episodes on all the disks don't play.

Due to my mistake I purchased this DVD believing that I would be able to view it on my DVD Player which wasn't the case due to Region Codes. Apart from that I received the products quickly, they were cheap in comparision to prices in Australia and are of good quality.

I found The Unit late in its run, and have gone back and purchased the set. And this is from someone who is not a huge fan of the military--this series is engrossing.
The basics: there are 23 episodes in the box set, which includes additional special features, and ten episodes available with commentary. Standouts include: Force Majeure, Natural Selection, Silver Star, Dark of the Moon and Paradise Lost.
Ever since The Shield, I've been a fan of Shawn Ryan. Some of the same positives and negatives are present in this series as well. The male cast members are excellent and can convey an incredible amount of expression in action and spoken word. Occasionally the performance of the women seems weaker, but it could just be they are given less to work with. The Unit is weakest in some of the writing. The 'home front' plot lines are frequently unbelievable and distracting. The storyline with Molly's recruiting showed the most promise, but went to great lengths to justify it by introducing a failing elderly mother we never saw before and have yet to see again. Maybe the military plot lines are unbelieveable as well, but I don't know enough to comment. Do they think women need a 'female' story line to enjoy an action show? The home plot line of "Two Coins" was distracting in its predictability--I was surprised but the lack of surprise endings!
Along these lines, occasionally an episode will send a jarring note when a character will act in an extremely uncharacteristic manner. I've seen the character of Bob be extremely articulate and thoughtful with Kim in one episode, to turn into a terse, monosyllablic jerk in another. This happens on The Shield as well, and I get the sense that the writers are sitting around saying, "what would be shocking and unexpected here?" rather than striving for an overall cohesive story where a character is gradually exposed with all the strengths, flaws and contridictions of a real person.
That said, the action is excellent, the editing and filmaking well done and the primary/military plot lines are often unique. Alot of television suffers from canned plots, and for the most part, The Unit continues to surprise. The acting and filmaking is what sets it apart.

The Unit cast would definitely surprise you with their outstanding performance and solid presence throughout each of the episodes. Beside Prison Break and may be The Shield, The Unit comes out with a mix of drama, sex, romance, and plentiful of actions that mesmerizes you to the limit. I have enjoyed the show and will be following the coming episodes with great anticipation.

The Unit, Season Two is great. An excellent show based on real life information and scenarios. A must have!
