Strike Back

Whoever did the casting for Series 6 should be immediately taken out with an RPG. What were you thinking?? Replacing the god-like Philip Winchester, Sullivan Stapleton, Richard Armitage, Robson Green, Rhona Mitra and Andrew Lincoln with 3 midgets and a barbie doll all with dodgy accents. And to make matters worse, 20 is now being run by a timid girl from the BBC with a crush on Lord Grantham. You could not have got it more wrong if you had picked actors from the phone book.

I was really looking forward to the new season but so far The Brave is looking more polished and believable TV at every level. Totally disappointed!!

10 out of 10 for Series 1-4, 8 out of 10 for Series 5 and 5 out of 10 for this sad imitation.

Addendum: SE6E7 - unbelievable plot, unbelievable acting, unbelievable script, unbelievable romance, unbelievable decision making - just pathetic!! Lowering my rating on Season 6 to 3 stars and that is purely for the anthem "short change hero" which is all this debacle has left. Time to move on - RIP!!

There is no show or film that has bought this level of war-fighting realism to the screen. It seems that Strike Back through the author Chris Ryan was able to retain the services of real SAS and SBS instructors, something that is a first and omg does it show. Combine that with dedicated really talented actors which again is unheard of, usually your typical action star has the acting range of a brick yet the casting agency has really pulled off a winner. And what about locations? INCREDIBLE, the British intelligence teams operate all over the world in some of the most beautiful areas of the planet.

This show has all the class of James Bond and the barrel-end of SAS-level military realism, America could learn some real lessons from this show.

The Brits could dominate TV if they invested in more shows like this.

This is Bravo Two Zero.....out.

Loved this series. Was sorry to see it go in 2015. Two years later it's been reborn in a decidedly less than incarnation. It's not the cast -- it's the writing. Which is, unfortunately, pretty standard issue Special Forces in desert countries shoot-em-up. Where's the story?

I can't say enough about how much I love this show. Strike Back is one of the better action shows I've ever seen and is without a doubt one of the most thrilling, action packed shows of all-time! It's about a secret unit in the British Military called Section 20 and follows them on all their dangerous missions across the world. Obviously the first 5 seasons with Sullivan Stapleton (Damien Scott) & Philip Winchester (Michael Stonebridge) are a lot better but the last few seasons with the new guys (Warren Brown and Daniel MacPherson) are still absolutely worth watching. Sad that it had to end but it's absolutely a show you can watch more than once through and still be very entertained!

They should list season 6 separately... would give at most 5 stars. Bad acting, lame story

Strike Back ended with season 5
