I'm rewatching the amazing season 2 finale and there was a promo for season 3. This is one of my most looked forward to shows. I can't wait to see how they resolve the issue of who is trying to destroy the unit. The promo dropped a few hints that may be misleading, and Dennis Haysbert with a shaved head and goatee ups the whole Sam Fisher-esque feel of the finale.

Exactly. I knew it was a 2 parter going, and I was still mad when I saw "To Be Continued".
Now I need to look up that "Chinese Lie Detector" and see if that was factual.

Re: The Unit Season 3
Boy do I feel stupid. I have been watching The Unit since last year, but hadn't paid close attention to credits. Well, last night I finally read that Rebecca Pidgeon is in the show. I have her album The Raven, but that is the only picture I had seen of her. Now I can finally feel "up to speed" on this show.

Re: The Unit Season 3
It was almost laughable that they were trying to convince us that those two planes were flying over Arkansas and Missouri. It sure looked like California to me.

Re: The Unit Season 3
It's funny because all along I thought "Fort Griffith" was in California, but I guess it is actually in Missouri.
This season is starting off the strongest of the three so far to me. Eric Haney needs to write more episodes.

Re: The Unit Season 3
Speaking of the opening, it has taken me a few weeks to get used to the new music. At first I hated it, but it is growing on me and I am starting to like it more. They just have better cleared the rights to use it on the S3 DVD set.

It's quite a switch from the original theme, but I agree it does grow on you. This season's opening theme is written and sung by series composer Robert Duncan. So far I love this season and I'm already looking forward to Season 3 on DVD. Fox better not replace it.
Disney/Buena Vista/Miramax: Please put Beautiful Girls on Blu-ray with bonus features and the original theatrical trailer in 1080p, and an anamorphic re-release with bonus features and the original theatrical trailer day-and-date on DVD. Thanks!

Re: The Unit Season 3
Another great episode this week. Not sure if I like the path they are sending Tiffy on next week. Her and Mac's storylines have been the only minor letdowns in this show for me.
CBS did announce todayt that they have ordered a full season of the show. It is getting an average rating of 11.4, though it was down some this week due to baseball.

It was a complete shock and surprise to me as well. A very good episode.

Re: The Unit Season 3
Yeah, CBS really gave this one away. The previews last week actually showed that it was Grey who got shot, pretty much saying it was someone else that would die. Then with Hector's story line last week and him catching Tiffie and Col. Ryan, I figured he was the goner. A shame as he was one of my favorites on the show, why couldn't it have been Mac?
RIP Hector

Re: The Unit Season 3
Would Col Ryan kill one of his own on the Unit to protect his secret? Judging by the previews next week it does not look like that would be the case. I don't think he would do something like that anyway.
Enjoyed the episode, just a bummer to lose one of the originals.
Cheers,
JJ

Re: The Unit Season 3
I didn't realize that a TV show could create such a moment. The last 15 minutes just left me speechless, and I had to fight back tears during the "roll call".
Shawn Ryan, E. L. Haney and company, well done
Now, if they can just settle out the Tiffy storylines I'll be 100% happy. Seems like everything she keeps getting involved in only works to grind the show to a halt. I would love to see a rest of the
season (however short the strike makes it) series long moratorium on the "who's cheating on who" storylines she is always involved in.
