    It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

    I absolutely love this show! I especially love season 2! In fact, I like season 2 a lot more than season 1. I love the four cadre that were picked, and I love the fact they used "vulnerable" participants. The drama and the craziness makes it so much more entertaining! It's so relatable and I love seeing all the dynamics of contestants. I also love the dynamics and the differences among the Cadre. I look forward to watching this show every Sunday! I hope that if this is renewed for a 3rd season, they design it the same way it was for Season 2.

    Season 1=10/10, Season 2=3/10. Season 1 had it all, physical challenges, cadres with killer backgrounds, and obstacles courses that had to be completed before the final challenge had to be completed! It made sense. Now, it's too much reality. These women Marines are so emotional (not that they shouldn't be), and the 2 cadre men are typical I guess. One is supposed to be a drill Sargent but half the stuff he says for motivating his crazy emotional team is flat out dumb. You have a high school reject looking to be popular or have a redo in life, another girl on the same team cries every episode (literally). Another chick, does her makeup every episode & could give 2 you-know-what's about the competition & on top of it, her boobs couldn't be more present in every episode as well. Season 1 was about athletic challenges and about the contestants, now it's just about the reality and helping people from people who have serious problems themselves. To be honest, these cadres look like they were the rejects in their respective branches. Im sure even John Cena is like "what the heck did I sign up for with this season?" FOX- please go back to the original premise of the show with real contestants, real cadres, and real hardcore challenges that show American GRIT!

    this is an excellent show of strength and endurance, Great Job John! always a fan, Keep up the good work. I enjoy all episodes, the productions is good and the exercises that each team has to go through is just awesome, I feel sorry for Tony, as he is the only one left on his team, I am rooting for you tony, hope you have the guts to continue, don't give up, mind over matter.Not sure how the romance is going to work out between team red and Blue, will be interesting to see what happens when the robber meet the road and they have to compete against each other, let see if love will prevail over 1/4 million dollars.

    This competition show pits four teams, led by representatives of the various military services, against each other in physical contests designed to show whether or not they have American grit. Presumably American grit is different from the grit of other nationalities. But there is ample evidence to demonstrate that Aussies, Russians, Brits, etc. all have shown remarkable courage and determination in trying circumstances.Hosted by John Cena,who has more than a token role and is a strong presence throughout the show, AG feels like a recruiting ad for the U.S. military, with language dripping in nationalism, patriotism, militarism and jingoism. It takes care to draw a line between the military way of doing things and the civilian way.The team leaders are a Navy SEAL, a Marine gunnery sergeant, an Army ranger sniper, and an Army sergeant. The latter is Noah Galloway, who competed on "Dancing with the Stars". The winning team is promised a $1,000,000 prize.The tasks are grueling and sometimes require strategy. The strategic element is undermined somewhat by the insistence of host and leaders that the military way is always the best way, which means "follow orders". Following orders is essential to military methods, in which each solider must subjugate his own goals and ego to the goals of the team. This fails to recognize superior decision making or strategizing by subordinates, because decisions are made at the top of the command structure.Those with a military background may appreciate the show because of its approach to competition. Those who appreciate the American ideal of the strong individual might enjoy more other competition shows like "American Ninja Warrior" or "Strong".
