Reviewed by David Savage

Starring: Terence Knox, Stephen Caffrey, Kevin Conroy Certificate: 15 Running Time: 3126 minutes Number of Discs: 15 Number of Episodes: 58 Format: DVD

Tour of Duty: The Complete Collection contains all 3 seasons (58 episodes on 15 DVD’s) of the American drama series about a platoon of soldiers fighting in the Vietnam war, a war in an unfamiliar land against a brutal enemy. The 12 month period American soldiers were required to serve in Vietnam was known as their Tour of Duty.

Starting from 1967 the series follows Bravo Company fighting in Vietnam and having to deal with the loss of life, losing their friends and their own beliefs about the war. As well as being a war film t also deals with subjects like grief, racism, drug abuse, politics and the rights and wrongs of war and having to fight a war that they cannot win.

Overall, Tour of Duty is a classic TV series about the harseness and brutality of war, the stress of jungle warfare and the troubles it can bring professionally and personally and how the relationships build between the soldiers who have to work as a team and depend on each other to stay alive.

It also has an excellent music score with some classic numbers and the iconic theme tune “Paint It Black” by the Rolling Stones.

A really enjoyable series. Action packed but also with light-hearted and humorous moments.

Rating: 4/5

Product description

Enjoy the groundbreaking TV series that was the first to depict the Vietnam War through the eyes of a single platoon of young U.S. soldiers. Featuring breakout roles for Kim Delaney ( NYPD Blue ), Kyle Chandler ( Friday Night Lights ), and special guest stars including Carl Weathers ( Rocky ), Michael Madsen ( Reservoir Dogs ), Ving Rhames ( Mission: Impossible ), and many more.

SEASON 1 BEFORE BAND OF BROTHERS THERE WAS TOUR OF DUTY

The racially and socially diverse men of Bravo Company come together and begin their 1-year tour in Vietnam. Led by Sgt. Zeke Anderson (Terence Knox), they must ultimately depend on one another to face enemy troops and survive the hostile Southeast Asian terrain. Full of thrilling combat action, TOUR OF DUTY also portrays the dramatic human side of war and the camaraderie of the men who gave their all for their country.

SEASON 2 BROTHERS IN ARMS. BROTHERS TO THE END.

When Bravo Company is transferred to the Tan Son Nhut Base outside of Saigon, it's a whole new war with new dangers and new faces. Kim Delaney (TV's NYPD Blue ) joins the cast as a war correspondent embedding with the platoon. The action continues but the personal battles are just beginning for the fresh-faced recruits who are becoming battle-weary fighters amidst the daily grind of war.

SEASON 3 THEIR TOUR IS ENDING BUT THE BATTLES ARE FAR FROM OVER.

The courageous soldiers of Bravo Company face their toughest challenges yet when they become part of a Special Ops unit at Camp Barnett. The third and final season is powerful, hitting on issues unique to the Vietnam era: the devastating effects of chemical warfare, the massacre of Vietnamese civilians, the growing use of heroin, and the difficulties the soldiers face returning home to a country bitterly divided by war.

Television Q&A: Was war movie Bob Newhart’s first tour of duty on film?

Comedian and actor Bob Newhart performs onstage in the Royal Variety Performance at the Palladium in London on Nov. 2, 1964.

Daily Express/Hulton Archive/Getty Images/TNS

You have questions. I have some answers.

Q: I remember years ago seeing an old black-and-white war movie with a young Bob Newhart doing his telephone routine. Was this his first acting role? I don’t remember the name of it. I think Steve McQueen was also in it.

A: The movie you remember is 1962’s “Hell Is for Heroes,” with Steve McQueen, Bobby Darin, Fess Parker and Newhart (1929-2024) in his first movie performance. In his 2006 memoir “I Shouldn’t Even Be Doing This!” Newhart says making the movie was not a happy experience. Changes were made from the concept first told to him, conditions were bad, McQueen and Darin were at odds over who was the star in the movie — Newhart had his eye on other gigs. With his comedy album “The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart” and its successor selling well, Newhart’s pay for stand-up gigs had quadrupled, and “I wanted to accept some of the offers that were coming my way.” Wanting out of the movie, Newhart kept suggesting to director Don Siegel ways to kill off his character, only to be told “you’re in the movie until the end.” Newhart did go on to other movies; still, TV proved a happier home.

Q: I wonder if you have heard if “Hudson & Rex” and “Wild Cards” have been renewed and will be returning this year. These are two of my favorite shows and I will be disappointed if they do not return.

A: These Canadian-made series are both continuing, with new episodes expected in 2025. “Wild Cards” — a comedy-drama about an unlikely pair of crime solvers — recently received an order for a second season through a partnership between the CBC and the CW. “Hudson & Rex” — where a cop gets help from his dog — has been picked up for a seventh season on Canada’s CityTV network; in the U.S., UP Faith & Family, currently carrying five seasons of the show, has the rights to future ones as well.

Q: Is there any info or viewing you can provide about a ’60s movie with Ronald Reagan and, I believe, Clu Gulager called “The Killers”?

A: The movie you recall is from 1964 and fully titled “Ernest Hemingway’s The Killers.” It’s very loosely based on a Hemingway story which had previously inspired the film noir classic “The Killers” in 1946. Gulager and Lee Marvin play the titular killers in the 1964 film (William Conrad and Charles McGraw are the hit men in the earlier movie). Ronald Reagan is the villain, and in his last movie. The cast also includes Angie Dickinson and John Cassavetes.

Siegel — who directed the previously mentioned “Hell Is for Heroes” as well as several Clint Eastwood movies — was the director on this film as well. Originally made for TV, it was deemed too violent for the small screen and released to theaters instead. One way to see it today is via a fine Criterion DVD which contains both the 1946 and 1964 films, as well as extras such as essays about both movies.

Q: Am I crazy? I think I saw former newsman and “Tomorrow” host Tom Snyder in a 1961 “The Rifleman” episode, “A Friend in Need.” Was he ever an actor?

A: Having spent years watching Snyder (1936-2007) as a charismatic and colorful late-night talk-show host, I had to see a performance like this, especially since, according to IMDb.com, it is Snyder’s only appearance in a scripted show as someone other than himself. So on Peacock I found Snyder as Pete, part of a search party. He had a couple of lines and absolutely nothing in his performance that suggested the fame that was to come his way.

Q: My granddaughter and I enjoy watching “My Life with the Walter Boys.” Please tell us when Season 2 will start.

A: While there hasn’t been an announcement, coverage of plans for a second season of the Netflix series based on Ali Novak’s novel has focused on a 2025 return — although one report suggested late 2024 is a possibility.

Where Was Tour of Duty Filmed? Exploring the Filming Locations of the Classic War Series

By Happy Sharer

Exploring the Filming Locations of Tour of Duty

When it premiered in 1987, Tour of Duty marked a major milestone in television history. The series followed the lives of a group of soldiers in the Vietnam War, becoming the first show to focus on the conflict and its aftermath. Since then, it has become a beloved classic, remembered for its gripping storylines and realistic portrayal of the war. But what many fans don’t know is that much of the show was filmed in locations around the world.

Overview of Tour of Duty

Tour of Duty follows a platoon of soldiers from the 25th Infantry Division, based in Cu Chi, Vietnam. Led by Sergeant Zeke Anderson (Terence Knox), the platoon includes a diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique stories and motivations. As the show progresses, viewers get a firsthand look at the horrors of war, as well as the resilience and courage of the soldiers who fought in it.

Where Was Tour of Duty Filmed?

Despite being set in Vietnam, Tour of Duty was actually filmed in several different countries. Much of the show was shot in Hawaii, which served as a stand-in for Vietnam. Other scenes were filmed in Australia, the Philippines, and Thailand. According to producer Zev Braun, the decision to film in multiple countries was driven by budget constraints: “We had to be very economical with our resources. We couldn’t afford to build sets or hire thousands of extras, so we had to be creative with our locations.”

A Look Back at the Sets of Tour of Duty

Although much of Tour of Duty was filmed on location, some scenes were shot on set. For instance, the show’s barracks were built on the grounds of the former Honolulu International Airport. Meanwhile, the officers’ mess hall was constructed on the grounds of the former U.S. Naval Station at Pearl Harbor. Other sets, such as the jungle and river scenes, were filmed in various locations in Hawaii.

On Location: Shooting Tour of Duty

Filming Tour of Duty on location presented its own set of challenges. For one thing, the crew had to contend with the unpredictable weather and terrain of the various shooting sites. They also had to work within the limitations of the local infrastructure, which often made transportation difficult. As Braun explained, “We had to be very resourceful in finding ways to move equipment and people from one location to another.”

Discussing the Production Design

In addition to logistical challenges, the production team also had to find creative ways to bring the show to life. To this end, they worked closely with the art department to create sets that would be both realistic and cost-effective. As production designer Robert Greene recalled, “We had to figure out how to make the sets look like they were in Vietnam without actually having to build them there.”

The Challenges of Filming in Various Locations

The production team also had to take into account the cultural differences between the various countries where they were filming. As Braun explained, “We had to be mindful of the sensitivities of the locals. We had to make sure we weren’t offending anyone or stepping on any toes.” In addition, the crew had to be aware of the political situation in each country, as some governments were less than enthusiastic about the show’s subject matter.

Working With a Limited Budget

Working with a limited budget also posed a challenge for the production team. To keep costs down, the crew had to be resourceful in their use of materials and props. As Greene noted, “We had to make sure everything was as realistic as possible while still staying within our budget.” The crew also had to make sure the sets were easy to construct and deconstruct, as they often had to move between locations quickly.

Behind the Scenes: Tour of Duty Filming

Behind the scenes, Tour of Duty was a labor of love for the cast and crew. Although the show was often grueling, the team was determined to capture the reality of war. As Knox recalled, “We all wanted to make sure we got it right. We wanted to do justice to the men and women who served in Vietnam.”

The Cast and Crew

The cast and crew of Tour of Duty worked hard to bring the show to life. Knox and his co-stars, including Stephen Caffrey, Tony Becker, and Ramon Franco, put in long hours on set, often working late into the night. Meanwhile, the crew had to contend with the rigors of location shooting, often spending weeks away from home.

The Making of Tour of Duty

The making of Tour of Duty was an incredible undertaking. From scouting locations to building sets, the production team had their hands full. According to Braun, “It was a huge undertaking, but it was worth it. We all felt we were doing something special.”

The Legacy of Tour of Duty

Today, Tour of Duty stands as a testament to the power of television. The show has been praised for its realistic portrayal of the Vietnam War, and many consider it to be one of the best shows of its time. As Knox noted, “I think Tour of Duty will always be remembered as a groundbreaking show. It changed the way people think about war and what it means to serve.”

Visiting the Real-Life Locations of Tour of Duty

For diehard fans, visiting the real-life locations of Tour of Duty is a must. Although the show was filmed in multiple countries, some of the most iconic scenes were shot in Hawaii. Fortunately, fans can still visit many of the show’s filming sites, including the barracks at the former Honolulu International Airport and the officers’ mess hall at the former U.S. Naval Station at Pearl Harbor.

Exploring the Filming Sites

Visiting the filming sites of Tour of Duty can be a rewarding experience. Many of the sites are open to the public, allowing fans to get a firsthand look at the show’s iconic sets. Some sites even offer guided tours, giving fans an insider’s perspective on the show’s production.

Tour of Duty on Location

Many of the show’s original locations are still recognizable today. Fans can explore the jungles of Hawaii, which served as a stand-in for Vietnam. They can also visit the beaches of Australia, which were often featured in the show’s beach scenes. And they can travel to the Philippines and Thailand, where some of the show’s most memorable scenes were filmed.

Revisiting the Tour of Duty Filming Sites

Visiting the filming sites of Tour of Duty is a great way to relive the show’s legacy. Fans can revisit their favorite scenes and get a firsthand look at the show’s iconic sets. They can also learn more about the show’s production, as well as the challenges faced by the cast and crew during filming.

Since its premiere in 1987, Tour of Duty has become a beloved classic. The show was filmed in multiple countries, including Hawaii, Australia, the Philippines, and Thailand. Despite the logistical and budgetary challenges, the production team worked hard to bring the show to life. Today, fans can still visit many of the show’s filming sites, allowing them to relive the show’s legacy.
