Show Notes
Welcome Renegade Nation it’s me Naughty Nicole and it’s time for another Renegade Review. And this time around, well we’re starting a whole new season of new shows and I’m going to try and review as many as a I can without wanting to slit my own wrists, so this time around, we’re starting with a little drama and a little funny. We’ll look at NBC’s The Brave and CBS’s Young Sheldon to whet our appetites for all the new and exciting shows….yep, that’s some serious badass sarcasm, in case you were wondering.
So to start off our little roller coaster I’d like to share with you the explanation of the genesis for the military drama the Brave given by its series creator Dean Georgaris which will leave you with as much wanting as watching the first episode did for me. He didn’t invoke a strategic genius of Sgt Major Jonas Blane ala The Unit or even the war-is-hell mentality of Capt Benjamin Hawkeye Pierce ala MASH but instead the worst possible choices made by one Walter White.
Where he states after watching documentaries about American Special Forces teams was impressed with their ingenuity and resiliency. He would read story after story and compare them to episodes of Breaking Bad where a small simple decision would lead to all these complications.
This basic concept – where men and women who execute undercover, elite missions all over the world would often have to innovate on the fly when plans fall apart - became the Brave, a fictional paramilitary unit that works all over the globe, using the players’ intelligence, weapons knowledge, language prowess and cultural skills to set bad situations right. Meanwhile, back in the United States, a group of analysts provides real-time backup and much-needed technical support to the unit in the field.
