'''JAG''' ('''J'''udge '''A'''dvocate '''G'''eneral's Corps) the TV series spanned ten seasons. It starred David James Elliott and Catherine Bell and was created by [[Donald Bellisario]].  It is the only television program to ever be endorsed by both the [[United States Navy]] and the [[United States Marine Corps]].  Two hundred and twenty-seven episodes aired from Sept. 23, 1995 to April 19, 2005. [[NBC]] initially canceled the show after its first season, subsequently being picked up by [[CBS]] where the show found a significantly increased audience share and remained for nine more seasons.<ref name=a1>[http://books.google.com/books?id=JQc4x8QhuR8C&pg=PA135&dq=Jag+TV+series&cd=4#v=onepage&q=Jag%20TV%20series&f=false ''TV Creators: Conversations with America's Top Producers of Television Drama (Volume 2)''].
