JAG was my favorite show as a kid. My Dad served in the U.S. Navy so any show or movie that cast a positive light on the military had my attention. Sad it had to end but great to see Lt. Rabb progress to Capt. Rabb throughout the years!
Don Bellisaro hit the nail on the head with JAG, truly one of the great shows of the 90’s. Always use to enjoy the beginning of the show with Dinozzo setting up his coworkers or vice versa. It was a series a veteran of the Navy and Marine Corps could be proud of.
I watched JAG religiously as a young adult. Catherine Bell was hot and a good character and loved Elliot's character too. Definitely one of my favorite shows!
Started watching this show cause it was almost the only thing on in English where I was living. Took about half an episode for me to realize I'd lucked into an gem of a show. Great story lines and characters. And Catherine Bell just blew me away
Even worse how the mains were brought back in NCIS. Harm and Mac not together, kinda fell into old routines. To me it felt like the characters actually regressed. I was okay with Mac, but she grated my nerves at times. Hated Harm leaving the service for her. He should be an admiral. XO is fine but not at that stage of his career.
It is extraordinarily unusual for any US TV show to reach 10 seasons. The fact that we have 10 seasons of such a high-quality show as ‘JAG’ is just wonderful. Donald Bellisario produced a lot of fine TV, but ‘JAG’ was his finest effort. The one thing I regret is that Tom Selleck (as an older Thomas Sullivan Magnum) never appeared in an episode of ‘JAG’. That would have been awesome. It would have been a synthesis of Bellisario’s two best shows.
JAG was one of my all time favorite TV shows. As the seasons progressed the writing got better and the actors grew into the characters they portrayed. I always loved the holiday episodes, and I loved how believable and human the characters were. It was the best military themed dramas ever, and I still miss it. A couple of corrections: Sarah Mc Kensey was a Major, ( later a Lt. Colonel), not a Lieutenant. Secondly, JAG was never filmed aboard the John F Kennedy. The JFK was an Atlantic fleet carrier based on the east coast, too far from Hollywood. Almost all of the series footage was stock footage as explained. The interior shots were sound stage sets.
JAG was my show too. I am a retiired US Army soldiers, 31 years. Onlyone time whielkstatioendingermany did I go abaord a US Nabvy SHip. We wertrainngon soem equipmenmt that the NAcvy had and that the Army weas getting.I learned hiow to baord ship,its really easy andrespectful too. I also Like Catherine Bell,, what a babe nice chest troo. That series ahd all teh pretty woem init, another reason why this soldier appreciates pretty ladies.
I absolutely loved Airwolf especially the music. The setting of the cabin on the mountain with the lake was just gorgeous. I also loved the two main characters - String and his airplane service buddy.
That would be Dominic Santini or Ernest Borgnine irl, and I agree, Airwolf was cool as hell, but JAG was a great show as well! Unfortunately, both have passed on, and the real "Airwolf," in case you didn't know, ended up being a hospital emergency helicopter in Germany, and she went down with all 3 crew members onboard during a severe thunderstorm.
@@judypierce7028 czcams.com/video/r3ZLps9Ij-Y/video.html Here's a link that talkes about it. You don't have to watch the whole video. I marked it to start when it talks about what happened to the helicopter after the show. I hope you enjoy, though it is very sad indeed.
Thanks for clearing up the mystery of the 'hurried' ending! We were sooo disappointed - it could have been a fantastic send off with lots of earlier characters coming to DC for the big wedding. We loved the characters and the insight into the world lf the Navy and Marine Corps The romance between Bud and Harriet was absolutely charming and the 'Mulder and Scullyesque' relationship with Harm and Sarah was tantalising! Jennifer Coates was such a beautiful and slightly quircky character - so stylish in her uniform! Loved it all!! We also love NCIS, but not so much the spin offs. We have every episode of both shows on DVD.... One thing both shows highlight is the well known fact that GIRLS CAN DO ANYTHING, but don't 'throw the baby out with the bathwater'. XXX
JAG was a great show ... as a 35-year military member, I always appreciated the accuracy of the uniforms and the dedication to customs, courtesies, and decorum. I had an opportunity to work with Catherine Bell on "Army Wives" as a DoD technical advisor. I worked with Catherine for a full day. I told her how the military appreciated the accuracy and she was humbly appreciative that it was noticed ...she was also able to belt out full lines of UCMJ legalese while we were waiting to set up the next scene ... even without that, Mac was my favorite character.
JAG came out after my tour of duty in the Marines, but I still have posters and Catherine Bell is one of them I have up. Now I’m totally hooked on NCIS and I’m actually re-watching the entire series a third time. Mark Harmon is my favorite as Gibbs (naturally) and my dog is named after Abby because of both her goth color (& tribute) & my dogs (half black lab half dachshund - figure out the mechanics on that one)! 😁🤣😂
So JAG wasn't canceled because it was loosing money, it was canceled because it was making money from the wrong people watching it? Can you imagine any other business saying; "we're making too much money from 50 year old customers, we want 25 year old customer money so lets just shutdown our successful business ". Isn't that just crazy?
I miss JAG. One of the few shows Mom and I sat and watched together. Usually I was out working or at my house tinkering in the garage. JAG night was the night Mom would cook dinner and I spent TV time with her. I love the aircraft scenes. Secretly I think Mom had a quiet crush on Harm. Right after the last episode, Mom got sick. She hung on till 2009. JAG means a lot to me since I'm a workaholic and JAG made sure I unplugged for a bit and spent an evening with my mom. I will agree Mark Harmon's version Is intriguing and I did watch the 1st season but it's just not the same as JAG. I say its the best of all the spin offs. I was really hoping that they would have done a cross over with JAG and we would have seen more of them even though it wasn't full episodes of the jag crew to show how each side has their own part in the investigation in court process. I hoped at some point they would do a JAG 2.0 knowing Harm and the rest probably would be retired military by now so it would be the next generation.
I loved that for two reasons: thoroughly enjoable series and Catherine Bell was - sorry - ultimate fantasy right there with Lexa Doig. Also - strong, competent men: admiral, lt. Rabb and Bart. Very different, but very......very good characters.
I loved JAG so much that I purchased the series. My favorite character was Mac. She was really into the character. Of course, I also loved Lt. Rabb. I wish that their reunion on NCIS had been extended longer and they really did marry.
:Me, too! I don't believe I ever saw it in first run, but in recent years I tuned to the series replays to see lovely Catherine Bell as Sarah McKenzie, and I went on to enjoy her in the Good Witch series, and a number of her TV movies. I also enjoyed Zoe McClellan as Lt.? Coates, and I was very pleased to see her on NCIS New Orleans as agent Meredith Brody. I am angry after I learned recently that she was was let go by one of the producers who said she wasn't f****b l e enough! That's ridiculous. She was gorgeous.
They were both on a episode of NCIS Rabb is a captain and Mac was some kind of argent. according to the story line they had been married and divorced cause Rabb spent too much time at sea. it was great to see them working together again
@@edmiera3583 WOW! I purchased the two episodes of NCIS in which they appeared. I had no idea that Mac and Harm married and divorced. Harm agreed to give up England and go with Mac who was assigned to California. It didn't work out for Harm who missed the Navy, so they didn't marry. Perhaps I am wrong.
Harm's callsign ended up mine as well in part because everyone in my squadron knew how much I loved the show. Also had to do with my last name and attitude toward the enemy as well too. My callsign was once again used in TOPGUN: Mavrick. Now if only I had left the navy with 2 stars on my collar instead of the silver oakleaves
@@lauriea2971 Nice to meet a fellow Vet. I had the pleasure of working with the Canadian forces on several occasions. Also had the honor of making sure some of them returned to their families. Was not just US troops I was protecting on the ground Canada and Great Britan played a huge role in the war on terror.
JAG is my all time favorite program. I have it on DVD and still love watching it. For me it was the addition of Bud in season two that added the comic relief the show needed to take off. As far as the rest of Bellisario shows, I loved them all. Still watch NCIS to this day. I still want to watch NCIS: Los Angeles but they don't have it all on Paramount + so it'll have to wait. I always wished they would have made a JAG movie to tie up the story lines.
I start watching in 1995. By the last season the show felt different with more new characters. In hindsight it seemed the producers gave them a way to continue with a new cast if contracts were not reached. I think ending the show was the better call. All the characters grew over the 10 years and it was time for Harm and Sarah to get promoted out of the office for a command position. I think it was a nice natural end to the show. Also I think David Elliott felt like he was being pushed out.
JAG, That show was such an awesome program & dedicated to men, women of the US NAVY & US MARINE CORPS! It was faithful to accurate portrayal, sometimes too hard for non military, even anti US Military civilians to “deal with” in my estimation. Now in the current world situation I’m mostly disgusted with our nations geo political attitudes with suppression of freedom of speech, Constitutional Republic, anti American sentimentalism of “elected representatives” whom eschew the values & principles on which our country was founded. I’m a Christian man, disabled veteran of the US Naval Reserve, Grandfather of 7 Grandchildren...I still salute our Nations Flag proudly & oft my eyes will tear up at the playing of our National Anthem! I do miss the preamble of “Attention to Colors” mornings around 0800 am! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I was literally in the Navy when JAG started. I loved watching JAG. I have every season series except season 8. I’ll keep trying to get that season. A great show.
I watched the original show and now look for and find re-runs on offbeat cable channels. Much like the other "Navy" shows the ensemble made the show what it was. I always liked the Admiral and like to see him in later NCIS: LA episodes. I just watched a re-run that had Rabb and Mac in a Stearman biplane, forced landed and chased by poachers. And Mac got shot! A little far fetched but still fun to watch.
When JAG 1st aired I was skeptical then watched & the Military was treated fairly. Impressed.. displayed competent military professionals highly educated!
I am a retired Navy CPO. JAG was a family favorite. It was as close to how real sailors lived as possible. When NCIS came along, that became a staple of our limited television watching. Still watch from time to time. NCIS went weird for a few years and lost me. Not much of a TV guy these days. I understand NCIS has gone back to its roots. Might check it out again. We do have about eight years worth of DVD's in our library.
I always enjoyed watching JAG and couldn't understand why it got canceled. I've enjoyed NCIS as well but I couldn't really connect with NCIS, Los Angeles or New Orleans. I guess I'll have to be content with JAG reruns.
JAG is my all time favorite program I've ever seen, i bought the series and was disgusted to find it had been chopped up to the point there must have been 75% missing. It broke my heart. I still want the complete program.
Airwolf is my personal favorite Creation. Harm is my favorite character but I actually meet Catherine Bell when she visited NAS Pensacola when I was there for Avionics School. I have watched all the Shows JAG, NCIS, NCIS LA, NCIS NO and now watching NCIS Hawaii.
I miss jag. I never miss an episode, now I rematch it on dvds over and over. I did watch ncis, ncis la and ncis Hawaii too. My fav characters on jag is rab and mic.
I watched JAG from the beginning of its run, and remained an avid and happy viewer until it wrapped up. And that was a sad day for me, because I really enjoyed the characters the storyline just a glimpse of parts of the Navy.
My fave DB creation was Airwolf, although as a former Marine I was drawn to JAG. It was pretty authentic most of the time and I watched because it respected Maritime Customs and Courtesy. I watched the series more than twice!
One of my all time favorite shows. Like so many others, I would have liked for Mac and Harm to have gotten together. I don’t know of any regulation that would prevent spouses to serve on the same base as long as they are not in one or the other’s chain of command. It would be difficult to keep business and family separate.
I loved JAG! The story line was good. Of course Cathrine Bell aka Mac. She is gorgeous and a very strong and decisive woman! All the characters made the show great!
I Agree JAG was a totally Awesome Program. One which I Really Missed. Also the Explanation about the other Programs was way late in being Explained. Alas it's Network Head Exec's that end up Deciding what we get too Watch anyways. Thanks for the Updates and information.
As a 90s kid I grew up watching jag and NCIS I also come from a military family from my grandma side of the family Jag gone but never forgotten David James Elliot And Catherine Bell we're my role models I served in army JROTC for 3.5 years 🕊️ Of peace
JAG was described (even Rear Admiral Chegwidden says it so in one episode) as: "a mix between Top Gun and a Few Good men" Also, they didn´t get the support from the US DoD at first, then when they show got popular, they backed it up.
I watched all 10 seasons of Jag and loved it. Was sad to see it go. NCIS I enjoyed but to be honest probably only watched a maybe 5 or 6 seasons. Loved the actors but I just kept drifting away from the show and occasionally go back to it. When Tony left in NCIS I was done. I was able to see the return of Harm and Mac in Jag a few years ago in the NCIS episode and was disappointed that they had gotten married and divorced. Didn't understand why they would do that with all the years we invested in the show, that was worse than the cliffhanger to me. I am still hoping for a revival.
Correction: Sara Mackenzie was never a Lieutenant on the show. She was introduced as a Major when the show was rebooted by CBS. She is also the spitting of Harmon Rabb’s dead girlfriend from his Academy days. Catherine Bell played that part too in the first season finale that was never aired on NBC. It was intended to be a cliffhanger. The show focused heavily on the fate of Harm’s father who was shot down over North Vietnam on 25 Dec 1969 in the series' early years. I I was a big fan of the show and I followed NCiS until recently. I’ve been watching Gutfeld! instead.
I did not read all of the comments but you should of covered that the characters got to clean up some of those lose ends in NCIS Los Angeles when Harm and Mac returned....
Now it makes sense starting with new characters after Season 1 cancelled by NBC, when Catherine Bell came in and Tracy Needham left...Season 1 had an abrupt ending, when Harm was arrested for murder at a Navy Woman (ironically played by Catherine Bell)..And season 2 started with a complete new story....The resolution only came in Season 3....
JAG was my favorite. I always loved it & even when the the characters showed up in the NCIS shows. You could tell the show had a quick, unplanned ending, either the actors quit or it had gotten cancelled, as the last season & ending seemed so rushed.
I grew up watching JAG, and even continued watching the spin off shows. Like many I wish they had done a few cross overs with NCIS besides having mostly Bud and AJ be the only connection. I also wish the streaming services would put all episodes, not break up the second season and on another start on the fifth. Both my parents served, but that was AF and Army, though Grandfather was a Seabe, though I have many cousins who are or were Marines. Fair winds and following seas from an Auxilarist CG Aux.
JAG was my favorite show as a kid. My Dad served in the U.S. Navy so any show or movie that cast a positive light on the military had my attention. Sad it had to end but great to see Lt. Rabb progress to Capt. Rabb throughout the years!

Jag was awesome program, a pity it had to end :-(
I’ve always loved this show ❤
Most of JAG's run, I was an active duty Marine. I loved the show and still pick up a rerun every once in a while. Truly a quality program.
I watched JAG religiously as a young adult. Catherine Bell was hot and a good character and loved Elliot's character too. Definitely one of my favorite shows!
JAG and Stargate SG1 were the best shows on tv.
I can get behind this thinking
Started watching this show cause it was almost the only thing on in English where I was living. Took about half an episode for me to realize I'd lucked into an gem of a show. Great story lines and characters. And Catherine Bell just blew me away
JAG will never be duplicated. The finale was a huge disappointment for we the faithful.
Even worse how the mains were brought back in NCIS. Harm and Mac not together, kinda fell into old routines. To me it felt like the characters actually regressed. I was okay with Mac, but she grated my nerves at times. Hated Harm leaving the service for her. He should be an admiral. XO is fine but not at that stage of his career.

JAG was one of my all time favorite TV shows. As the seasons progressed the writing got better and the actors grew into the characters they portrayed.

Relese the entire set. We want it all, not a quarter of it.
My favorite ! One of the most beautiful ladies in acting !! 😍🤩❤️
Catherine Bell was the WOW for me as the show started.Greatings from germany
Quantum Leap is my favorite show. I like the partnership of Sam and Al. I love the nostalgia and how they helped people.

I had such a crush on Petty officer Coates

One can most always tell the success of a Television series when the time spent watching advertisements exceeds the time watching the show itself.
Catherine Bell gives such great wood.
Mom and I watched JAG and NCIS, plain and Los Angeles. A LOT.
In Australia it aired with a similar show in style even though it was science fiction Stargate SG-1 which also went for 10 seasons
Loved JAG it was a great show
I loved JAG! The story line was good. Of course Cathrine Bell aka Mac. She is gorgeous and a very strong and decisive woman! All the characters made the show great!
Great show, still watch the reruns ... of his shows I like the original Magnum PI
I Agree JAG was a totally Awesome Program. One which I Really Missed.
Also the Explanation about the other Programs was way late in being Explained. Alas it's Network Head Exec's that end up Deciding what we get too Watch anyways. Thanks for the Updates and information.
Was to the star ship 😂
I use to watch it all the time
I loved JAG and NCIS. Sad that JAG ended and NCIS cast had to change.
I have the Commander DVD Box with all 10 Season. Do i have say more ?!
I started watching JAG after I learnt it’s relation to NCIS, I haven’t watched much but I love it
As a 90s kid I grew up watching jag and NCIS
I also come from a military family from my grandma side of the family
Jag gone but never forgotten
David James Elliot
And Catherine Bell we're my role models
I served in army JROTC for 3.5 years

I really can't remember watching one episode, one tv majority rules!
My favorite characters on JAG were Mac and Coates.
Mark Harmon is a terrific actor
JAG was described (even Rear Admiral Chegwidden says it so in one episode) as: "a mix between Top Gun and a Few Good men"
Also, they didn´t get the support from the US DoD at first, then when they show got popular, they backed it up.
It ran a lot longer than 227 episodes. I want to know where the others are?
I loved that show
I watched all 10 seasons of Jag and loved it. Was sad to see it go. NCIS I enjoyed but to be honest probably only watched a maybe 5 or 6 seasons. Loved the actors but I just kept drifting away from the show and occasionally go back to it. When Tony left in NCIS I was done.
I was able to see the return of Harm and Mac in Jag a few years ago in the NCIS episode and was disappointed that they had gotten married and divorced. Didn't understand why they would do that with all the years we invested in the show, that was worse than the cliffhanger to me. I am still hoping for a revival.
Watched Jag and NCIS. Liked both, and made me lookup The uniform code of military justice to keep up with the show. Former Air Force.
fue unas de mis series favoritas.
My two favorites were Catherine Bell and Tracey Needham
It would be great if Paramont would put the missing episodes back on their platform.
I was a fan of both JAG and NCIS. I planned my Tuesday, so I can get off work by 7 pm to watch the show at 8pm.
I love this show
I loved jag so 90s reminds me of childhood
Harm was my favorite character. But the brunette female lead was in an episode on a beach in Australia. The best bikini look including Baywatch.
That episode was in season 5. If the bikini scenes affected the series, it would have ended much sooner.
I know whose Bell I’d ring, and keep ringing
Correction: Sara Mackenzie was never a Lieutenant on the show. She was introduced as a Major when the show was rebooted by CBS. She is also the spitting of Harmon Rabb’s dead girlfriend from his Academy days. Catherine Bell played that part too in the first season finale that was never aired on NBC. It was intended to be a cliffhanger.
The show focused heavily on the fate of Harm’s father who was shot down over North Vietnam on 25 Dec 1969 in the series' early years. I
I was a big fan of the show and I followed NCiS until recently. I’ve been watching Gutfeld! instead.
I did not read all of the comments but you should of covered that the characters got to clean up some of those lose ends in NCIS Los Angeles when Harm and Mac returned....
Loved JAG and have all 10 seasons and have watched them 4 times. My favourite character...well I still have a crush on Mac
Now it makes sense starting with new characters after Season 1 cancelled by NBC, when Catherine Bell came in and Tracy Needham left...Season 1 had an abrupt ending, when Harm was arrested for murder at a Navy Woman (ironically played by Catherine Bell)..And season 2 started with a complete new story....The resolution only came in Season 3....
David James Elliot was my favorite Jag actor. I have watched NCIS Faithfully since the beginning. I also loved NCIS L.A.
JAG had cut scenes from Top Gun.
JAG was my favorite. I always loved it & even when the the characters showed up in the NCIS shows. You could tell the show had a quick, unplanned ending, either the actors quit or it had gotten cancelled, as the last season & ending seemed so rushed.
I grew up watching JAG, and even continued watching the spin off shows. Like many I wish they had done a few cross overs with NCIS besides having mostly Bud and AJ be the only connection.
I also wish the streaming services would put all episodes, not break up the second season and on another start on the fifth.
Both my parents served, but that was AF and Army, though Grandfather was a Seabe, though I have many cousins who are or were Marines.
