US: The Last Ship

It's getting quite good, I think there is a potential here to turn into some kind of Battlestar Galactica crossed to the Hunt for the Red October if they get the scrip right.

I quite enjoyed season 1, bit to much USA will save the world..etc but entertaining.

The Brit baddies in season 2 is the worst acting/casting/script I've ever seen, the show had potential but now it's a laughing stock.

I'm caught up with season two and quite enjoyed it. It's not amazing but certainly watchable.

Really enjoyed the series up to the British joke. I've had dreams about a global pandemic and being stranded on a warship. Perhaps why I enjoyed the series so much. Apart from the British.

latest ep was to much murica for me

^^ Good ol Murica filler!

I will allow them to have these episodes as long as they get back to blowing things up next time.

Wow what a great episode. Great chess game! Very very tense during that battle!

Im really enjoying this show, love the battles they seem to build up the intensity really well. I usually like scifi shows but this has pulled me in, I suppose it is a ship just not in space. So glad its got a season 3 coming, I thought the last episode of season 2 was the sub being destroyed but it looks like another is on tonight

Im strangely liking this show. Yes in places its a bit cheesy.

I always classed this as a guilty pleasure but it's the first thing I watch from my weekly rota, I find myself picking at it a lot less than say The Strain (now moving to that thread for my weekly moan

).

This is a guilty pleasure for my wife and I. True it's not Oscar worthy and some of the plots/acting is dreaful but it has a certain charm. Emotionally quite satisfying at times and keeps me guessing where they're going to go with things. The hook at the end of S2 is interesting too.

My main distraction is that Capt Chandler always looks like he's chewing on a wasp and Rhona Mitra's lips seems to be becoming more and more swollen. Soon she'll turn into a muppet.
