Michael Bay's The Last Ship on TNT

[klang]

Last nights ep was exceptionally well written and executed. Intense, one on one drama. One of their best!

Agreed. I was emotionally wrung out after watching.

 

[fredp]

Really.... wrung out....intense one on one..... you guys need to get outside more during the summer...

 

[Ramy]

I actually found it rather boring.

I actually found it rather boring.

Why, 'cause there weren't any gunfights or explosions?

 

[long_time_DNC]

I thought it was well done also...

 

[Ramy]

Why, 'cause there weren't any gunfights or explosions?

Yep.

 

[long_time_DNC]

Not every episode can be an action-packed extravaganza...gotta slow down ocassionally and set the stage for the next action set-piece...

I'm still watching this show but for me its lost a lot of its original appeal. I liked that last year they were trying to find a cure, find fuel, find munitions and find food.. This year not so much. Pull into any port and get whatever you need its seems. Last year they had a nemesis in that Russian warship. This year we get the three stooges trying to run a nuke sub...

If you don't find a cure, at some point, in this alternate reality, you end up with very few people left (the immunes) running what's left of the world...show over...

Well, that's good news! I'm enjoying this season quite a bit...

Glad to see Niles bite the dust by the doctor's hand. Since he caused the virus to spread and he killed off like 5 billion people, he also can be instrumental in helping to create the cure.

 

[KAB]

Next week preview suggesting Dr. murdered Nils and should be tried will be BS if pursued.

 

[long_time_DNC]

Ageed!

 

[fredp]

Well we need a little melodrama guys.... You don't think they would actually convict Dr. Mengele, AKA Dr. Rachel.. Too cute to walk the plank!

 

[long_time_DNC]

I don't think they'll try her. She made the cure and killed the guy who started it, so too much symmetry there to put her on trial...

 

[klang]

I'm betting on a Presidential pardon, his first.

 

[long_time_DNC]

I'd be surprised to see that...so far, the guy just seems to window-dress the sets a lot...

I am new to this show, having somehow missed it when it first came out. Enjoying the first season. Of course, I am not sure how much of that has to do with Rhona Mitra. Definitely some.
