We’ve spent a lot of time looking at the justice served through the likes of NCIS and FBI. There have been shows that have focused on the dangers of military operations, such as through SEAL Team. Then there are the courtroom dramas like Bull. Now it’s time to pull it all together.

What happens after NCIS? What happens when military personnel are charged with crimes? They can’t be tried in a civilian court of law by civilian lawyers. Who would understand everything they’ve done? So, it’s over to the military courts.

This is where The Code will take us. Get ready to meet the people who protect those who protect us. This is about the prosecution and defense within the military system. The first port of call is the friend of our lead male, Captain John “Abe” Abraham, played by Luke Mitchell. Abe is a third-generation marine and is focused on getting justice for the death of a friend, someone stabbed and killed by one of his own men.

So, why should you give this series a chance? Why watch yet another military drama? Here are four quick reasons why.
