  • Canceled

    I hate to post this message and was hoping not to have to do it. The Unit has been officially canceled by CBS. Here are the links: http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?date=05/19/09&id=8115 http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2009/05/breaking-nbc--1.html

  • Petition and Forum for the UNIT!!!

    Definitely fill out any petition explained on this page to bring the UNIT back to network television. I too have a forum setup on USA Networks to try and bring the show to their line up. Check it out. http://forums.usanetwork.com/index.php?showtopic=435109&st=0

    NO - say it isn't so. I love The Unit! hide « show »

    Everyone I know who watches this show loves it. Delta Force is so secretive that even a fictional show gives us a view on what these soldiers go through and must know. The characters are well picked - although I didn't like when Hector was killed off however, I do like the new characters. I have been hooked on this show since the beginning. I can't believe they would cancel it. I do hope another network picks it up! This show is a lot more interesting than some of the junk that is still on TV. Bring it back now!

    All of the shows are great, great writing, great acting. Best on TV. Please do not replace any of the most supberb actors on TV! The show, actors, writers, producers, directors and everyone involved should get TV awards for a job most well done... hide « show »

    This is a fantastic, wonderful and exciting show week after week. I would not miss it ever. If I was in a meeting with the President I would leave in plenty of time to watch The Unit. Keep The Unit and all of the actors and themes.

    This type of great show only comes along every few years. UNIT fans get in your votes and let your voices be heard!!!!!

    Bring Molly Back! However, have her come back on her own after Jonas asks her to. All of the ladies are superb. I do think when they are working their "2nd jobs" they should get paid (equal to) risking their lives and sometimes the lives of their children and being separated sometimes from their children.

    It would not be the same without "Colonel Ryan" and his character, he is superb as well. I do think Jonas should get 2 free "knock your block off" shots at Colonel Ryan for putting Molly in extreme danger and lying to him about everything. In fact all of the guys should get two free shots (1 for endangering their wifes and 1 for lying). That should put the Colonel in the hospital for a bit of time.

    I like the marriage of "Betty Blue". Make his wife treat him right and be a good wife like the rest. However, no more extra marital affairs for anyone.

    Lastly all eight of us (my wife, 4 adult children & spouses) and I were saddened when you killed off one of the original Unit members. We miss you man! May you rest in peace.

    best show on tv!the most realistic, always entertaining,on the edge of my seat,and great acting.only show worth watching hide « show »

    absolutley the best tv show on tv today if not all time.great acting,great storylines, even the most minor details are accurate which help contribute to the best tv show around.even the worst episode of the unit is pretty much better then just about any other tv show in my opinion.i would like for there to be a little bit more combat situations but its already a fantastic tv show. but i would like to see a little bit more combat like there was in the first 3 seasons which seemed to have gone down a little bit but thats the only complaint i have on this show and i greatly urge you to watch it if you havnt already.this show deserves a 12 out of 10.

    the show the unit. come on. it's the best show on tv. hide « show »

    Let's be honest. the unit is a great show. if you've served in the military or even if your a patriot and you like seeing the good guy win then this is the show for you. the cast is an awesom group of actors. the story lines are close to real life. if you fans of the unit are reading this i urge you to take the time to write the network and plea for the return next season of the unit. word around the campfire is they might not pick it up next season. if cbs dosen't then another should. i come from a famoly of military and trust me there are people like the charecters in theis show out there fighting for our country. some of the storys are close to real events. it's good to watch something other than a reality show.

    Don't cancell the show. Bring Molly back!! hide « show »

    I love this show! I think this show is well balanced with action, and family. The wives play an important part in keeping the show balance. Anyone who says you guys need to get rid of them are problaly self righteous individuals who abuse women. The military is not all about the soldier it's about the family as well. Further more, I think Regina Taylor is an excellent actor!!! Just right for Jonas Blane!! I'm tired of all the CSI and other stupid reality shows that are rigged from the beginning of typing. Keep the Unit!! Jonas go after Molly!! That's what a real man would do.
