Hank Stuever

Sep 14, 2017

Season 1 Review: It’s The Brave (from Israeli producer Avi Nir, who shepherded “Homeland” to American TV) that busts in with the smoothest operation skills [of the new military dramas], as Anne Heche plays a hard-driven intelligence agency head who gives orders to a tightknit (and ethnically diverse) special-ops team.

Season 1 Review: Capable enough time-killer, but nothing compelling. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The Brave’s patriotism and its approach to dealing with threats to Americans is cathartic. Plausible? You’ll have to find another series for that. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The series follows the template for action shows but makes the most of it through crisp pacing and realistic action sequences. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The Brave, which is as generic as broadcast network pilots get, feels like it’s a latecomer to the wave of post-“Homeland” dramas that were commissioned a few years ago. There’s no sophistication in the treatment of geopolitics or the wars in the Middle East, its characters are bland, and even the action sequences have nothing special to set them apart.

Season 1 Review: NBC isn’t breaking any new ground here, but maybe it doesn’t need to. More focused on operations with a clear procedural setup, The Brave offers up tense tactical missions, but hasn’t revealed what its narrative focus will look like. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Clearly, the life-and-death world of military operations was an appealing concept this fall, but there has to be more than a premise to back it up. In The Brave, there's just not quite enough. Read full review
