The Last Ship

Anyone else watched the first episode?

I thought it was not too bad...

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.

Just finished the premiere as well. Looking forward to it. The setting makes it more interesting.

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...

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!

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?)

He's a Brit as far as I can tell.

Well, been watching it since episode one. Today's episode was good. Like someone mentioned earlier, just turn the brain off and enjoy it.

That Swedish<?> guy on the Russian ship is uber creepy. A lot of American rah, rah, but whatever...........

Stopped watching after episode 3... it went past being "so bad it's good" right into "just bad" territory for me. Come on, it is REALLY bad
