Meg Austin, becoming the female star of the military-themed action adventure series; her character was a Navy judge advocate and also a computer weapons expert. The series was originally perceived as a “Top Gun” meets “A Few Good Men” series, however, the show was cut short in 1996, but was later renewed and would go on to run for several seasons, although without Needham, as she moved on to other roles, including appearing in the television movies “Last Stand at Saber River”, and “VR 5”.
