I didn't know it was already being screened! I'll have to check it out! Last year I was working at the airport in Smithers where parts of it were being filmed, I remember a blacked out A-star heli refuelling and on either side of it were men with machine guns. Now at that point I had no idea there was a series being filmed here so my first reaction was quite surprised to see that in small town Smithers!

It was alright. I do find the premise interesting although I'm really not betting on it being a "good" series. I think it will be fine entertainment though.
Wasn't a bad premiere episode, but I fear that it's gonna be like Last Resort. Good premise, but not enough material to keep it interesting for more than a couple seasons without going the Lost route.
I like this series so far. I also like the fact they're in a destroyer. It would have been too easy to have them on an aircraft carrier, with nuclear power and unlimited range, and so much firepower that they'd never really be worried about someone coming after them.
Second episode had a great cliffhanger ending...
Spoiler!
While they're getting ready to leave Guantanamo with their fuel/food, they spot a ship approaching 20+ miles out. They contact the other ship and a British female who's also planning to get supplies from Guantanamo answers. They invite them to join them. When the ship is in visual range, it activates its radar/weapons and turns out to be a Russian ship and the Russian commander tells them they have something they want.

in the middle of the second episode... ill give it a few more episodes chance but right now im bored as fuck. nice premise but the show is just looking like garbage to be completely honest. or at least this episode is really, really bad.
Of course they had to go to Gitmo, and of course there had to be Al Qaeda there. A friend brought up a good point about this... When the Commander was talking about there being no more "good" or "bad" guys anymore, it would have been interesting to see at least one of the Al Qaeda guys take up the offer to join the ship's crew. Would have added some interesting tension to an already overly tense crew. Plus it would have been a good chance to blur the lines between good/evil during a time of global catastrophe. Y'know, something like Last Of Us. But considering it's a partial Michael Bay production... 'Murica, Fuck Ya!
LOL'd at the Tim Horton's coffee cans in middle of episode 2

turn your brain off and just enjoy. Its not bad, can't see them doing more than a season or two though. Can only put that "last ship" into so many situations.
I think they played the mole card too early. Could have left it for at least a couple more episodes without making it too obvious, I think. Not that a Russian ship coming after them when there's only one Russian on board isn't obvious at all... (actually, he's not Russian is he?)
