Último Destino

For pure entertainment value this is one of the best new TV series there has been in a long long time. I loved the pilot and loved the second show. Yes there will always be critics due to the fact there are some errors, but its a dramatic TV series. If they made everything too realistic it wouldn't be great entertainment which this is for sure. The characters are all great in their individual roles but Andre braugher who plays the captain is extremely good. My one worry for the show is that what was shown in the first 2 episodes could have been spread out over around 4 or 5 so if they can produce enough material to the same standard then this show will be one of the best. No i have never been in the navy or ever plan to be so several things may be far from how a sub would actually operate, however 98% of the people watching will be like that so it is best to appeal to the masses. I even watched the pilot twice it was so good.

Is this show gonna win any realism awards? NO Is this show gonna win any entertainment awards? YES, if it the rest of the series is as good as the first two episodes.

From the first episode of the show I couldn't help but count the days when the next episode would air. I know most people would think its not really what one would do in a real life scenario but TV shows and movies this days are based on facts vs fiction. Stop criticizing the show and just enjoy it.

The acting is also great. Would love to have such a captain in my sub any day anytime. I think it will really be a great show with the action, suspense. I just can't help but wonder what would happen if the government pushes to the edge. I think it will be a great show all in all but its just my opinion.

I started watching this show on my I-Phone ABC television app during my lunch break at work. I was floored by the action and excitement of the show. Even on that tiny screen the drama was palpable, so much so I was nearly late going back to work. I am totally impressed with this show. All of the characters are interesting and the cast is excellent. This is a show that keeps my interest and I look forward to the next episode. Unfortunately, the ratings have not been very good and there is a good chance it might not last the season. I URGE my readers to watch this show. I don't think the networks give shows like this a chance. Even I would probably have overlooked it had I not committed to reviewing all the new fall shows. I am not drawn to military drama but this show is not just military drama. There is intrigue, romance, conflict and much more. ABC does have a winner here and I encourage them to stick with this show. WATCH IT!!!!

Its a perfect set up. Brings plausibility to events you instinctively react to as not having much of a chance to come about in the real world - at least one hopes so - yet if the catastrophic eventualities were to occur, what would the world look like and how'd they be handled - questions that can be explored only in a dramatization. Its pretty much the American military stud stereotype - yet its fascinating - and leaves you impatiently waiting to see where will all this go. Where's the dividing line between sworn commitment to authority and the default recoil from it when the authority is itself athwart the principles that sanctified and established it. Makes you wonder, think and leaves you thirsting to find out more.

Episode 1 was a blockbuster. Then this thing meandered. It became more lost resort than last resort. And they got it back with episode 5. You forget the directionlessness of episodes 2, 3, 4. Every theatrical punch is delivered to perfection in 5. Its a crowning moment for a story when it is predictable but you can't wait to see it happening. Impossible odds overcome. Impeccable, unbelievably crafty negotiation. Disaster averted at the very last moment. Critics turned admirers. You enjoy an overwhelming impatience for events to unfold - you know how they will - you know its too ordered, too perfect, unquestionably artificial - what the heck - you don't spend your life on a roller coaster - you get on it to savor the short adrenalin rush - and episode 5 is one amazing ride - don't miss it.

All i can say is don't listen to this people who say anything bad about this show. Just watch it and then decide. If you love action and adrenaline rushes like i do you will LOVE it! This is by far the best show out there now. Why i say that because if something like big bang theory and other crap shows can be on top then this here will be Godlike. Forget also about this reviews saying its not realistic...its much more realistic then it isn't. This is the only way you will get adrenaline rushes anything more "realistic" would be to boring. After watching the show i just feel good and i am sad that there isn't a captain like this one for real, because there are a lot of bad guys out there trying to destroy our world.
