Recommendations: JAG

One of the upsides to having the flu (believe me, there aren't many), is that you have all the time in the world to watch tv. For the occasion of being sick, I treated myself to an afternoon of JAG, which is an American show about the Navy's judge advocate general core. I used to watch this show when I was little and have loved it despite it's obvious patriatism.

It tells the story of Harmon Rabb, an ex-naval aviator who became a lawyer when he was diagnosed with nightblindness and lost his wings. It's a series easily watched in seperate episodes, but more fun when watched in order. The best thing about this series is it's humour. That and the neverending rivalry and hidden attraction between Harm and his partners, Lt. Austen and Lt. Pike (in season 1) and Mj. Mackenzie (in season 2). It's funny how he is always teamed with a woman, but it's amusing enough not to be bothered by it.

I watched more than an entire season while confined to couch and bed, and I must say it's as good as I remember, and makes me smile. Clicking the image below will take you to the first season on Amazon (.co.uk so almost everyone in europe can buy it).
