There is good acting and interesting twists. I've watched 2 episodes and will continue. A bit stereotypical-swaggering pilot, nervous child who finds his courage-but it's nice to see strong, brave women making decisions and pushing the action forward. I don't get all the emasculated male comments. I guess if the women of the series disagree with and override a male on some (but not all) decisions, he isn't a "real" man. Wow. Forget the negativity and give it a shot.
