At least for six episodes.
The Bravehas an impressive roster of actors who are perfect for a show like this.
I just know them as that smart guy fromQuantico and the lady onArrowwho can fight.

Of course, Anne Heche is the exception to the rule.
The Bravespilot is pretty straightforward: Doctors Without Borders surgeon Kimberly Wells is kidnapped in Syria.
Hannah (Sofia Pernas) and Noah (Tate Ellington) help Patricia in Washington.
Daltons team is legitimate.
Welcome to a day in the life of Special Ops.
Patricias team locates the driver who ditched Dr. Wells right before her kidnapping.
Instead, they behead them.
Dr. Wells life expectancy window shortens from weeks to days.
Patricia puts two and two together.
They recently killed this groups leader, Baghdadi.
Now the group wants retaliation with a pubic execution.
Dalton recognizes the shooter immediately as Baghdadis right-hand man, Al-Akmuti.
New plan: If they follow this bad guy, he will take them directly to Wells.
His hope is that Al-Akmuti will lead him straight to Wells.
What Amir didnt expect was a broken piece of glass shoved up against his carotid artery.
Dalton and Jaz follow Amir as he drives a truck to a compound just past a mosque.
Hannah and Noah know if Amir goes into that compound, hes never coming out.
Jaz is officially my favorite member of the team.
Daltons team follows close behind and is surprised when the armored vehicles stop at a hospital.
Facial recognition picks up the woman driving Wells.
For the second time, Patricia figures it out.
Kimberly Wells isnt a random kidnapping.
They need her because shes a surgeon.
Baghdadi is still alive.
Dalton just wings it because hes a badass.
The easy thing would be to drop a bomb on the hospital right now.
For some, its a tough call.
For others, its not.
Allowing Baghdadi to escape so he can rebuild a terror web link is not an option.
But can they sacrifice Kimberly Wells?
Dalton decides that the best way to handle this situation is to waltz into the hospital with a gun.
Hes apprehended and taken to a room before Baghdadis wife is called to assess the situation.
He then shoves her into the van with Preach and McG.
As the car drives off, Dalton, Amir, and Jaz look on.
I was a tad annoyed that everything ended up in the win/win category at the end of this pilot.
