Even when the show itself is not a huge winner, I get a warm feeling. Harbor Command is not a world beater, but it has its charms.
Looks impressive, don't it? But this isn't just any old sea/land hybrid entertainment. ZIV reminds us each time out that Harbor Command enjoys the cooperation of the local authorities:
I also like the propers given to the true-life Harbor Commanders.
The best part about the series, though, is Wildcat Wendell Corey, who manages to look annoyed in any situation. Pursuing a thief? Annoyed. Tracking the carrier of a deadly infectious disease? Annoyed. Getting vital information from a fellow civil servant? Annoyed.
Telling the audience about his real-life counterparts? Annoyed.
Thanking us for watching? Annoyed.
