No, I did see that.

I was just going on about how her actions took me out of the funny  
part and kept me freaked out.

One of the hats I wear is "Range Safety Officer"  (have a nice little  
orange patch to wear and everything.) so it is nigh on impossible for  
me to
watch this sort of thing as comedy.

It's like watching 24's idea of close quarters battle.  It leaves me  
constantly going  WTF?  where did these bozos train?

IMHO,  by the way, "The Unit"  does a much better job of getting it  
right.
