This series offers an unflinching look at the "tours of duty" of several members of a platoon during the Vietnam War. Death is inevitable in war, and major characters do die. The protagonists face the Viet Cong, social disapproval, and sometimes themselves over the course of the series.
The trials of a U.S. Army platoon serving in the field during the Vietnam War.
Being a vet from the Viet Nam conflict era, I can't help but watch each episode over and over. This is the most realistic show on t.v.. When "COMBAT" came on in the 60s, My Dad , a WWII vet, said it was the most realistic WWII show he had ever seen. It also followed the main characters through tough battles. TOUR OF DUTY goes beyond "combat" probably because of the lack of strict censorship in the 80s compared to the 60s. I just have to say, the cast, the writing , the directing, and the filming of TOUR OF DUTY, marks the epidomy of excellence in television. Thanks goes out to "TBS" for bringing this great show back. When I get off of work at 2:00p.m., it gives me a chance to get home, get relaxed and settle in for the best hour on t.v.
TOUR OF DUTY is a Vietnam War show following a single Platoon of US GI's. In the first series they are out in the jungle. In the second series it gets more soap-ish as they end up in Saigon. In the third and final series they end up assisting a Special Forces unit. I have only watched the first series because I couldn't get any further.
At heart this show is like COMBAT! A core of characters, a number of redshirts and a different mission every week. The show has some simply superb history behind it with excellent costumes, good sets and historically based situations (often cribbed from memoirs). The grunts even move like grunts. It is also excellent to see the sheer range of story lines. Combined with the statistic that flashes up at the beginning of each show (a different one every week), the show has some real educational quality, covering the gamut of what infantry in Vietnam might see.
However because this isn't post-watershed TV the blood is pretty light, the main characters never die or get wounded (or only very, very rarely) and the enemy often verge on the stupid. The lack of threat to the main characters is particularly problematic because it robs a lot of the tension from the series. I'm in two minds about the lack of hard- hitting commentary on Vietnam. Because there can be no drug abuse, no rape, no real representation of the worst horrors of war, it cheapens the series a little. On the other hand the show has a valuable educational purpose and adding all the nasty bits of Vietnam would only prevent kids from being allowed to watch it. There are also a handful of ridiculous plot moments or dreadful attempts at comedy. Yet this show tries its best and deserves respect for that.
The actors are generally pretty decent, although the episodic format means that the characters largely remain the same throughout the whole series, with very little development. Contrary to some on here I wouldn't call the cast outstanding. They do a good job, especially for young guys, but they are hardly world class and often verge on the hammy. The youth and lack of fame of the cast does work to their benefit however in adding to the reality of the series.
Ultimately the long series length, the episodic structure and the lightness tell against it in this modern world of TV boxsets. Watching an adventure a week on TV was probably pretty fun but trying to watch more than that on DVD is often a little boring as the 80's cheese and lack of change in the characters grates on the viewer.
