Last Resort

The show is great, a little mystery, some action. I only wish that they wouldn't have this show on at the same time as The Big Bang Theory and 2.5 Men. Those shows are going to kill the ratings to this show. Why would they want to compete with these shows that have been the top shows for some time.

Anyway, I believe that this show helps show us the reality that may happen someday. A futuristic military comprising of more women on a US nuclear submarine and what can happen when the crew is tested. Military sub movies are great, so why not have a show based on a submarine? The submarine looks very real and professional and it seems like a lot of time was put into creating this show. The captain is a great actor that adds to this show.

I recommend seeing this if you haven't yet, but you may end up having to watch it online with again the poor choice of time slot.

Television is about fantasy and this drama takes it to a wonderful and exciting new level. I Can't wait to see how the plot thickens! Last Resort is an intelligent and well written drama that has such amazing actors who I've been fans of for years. I've been a fan of Scott Speedman since Felicity. And what show doesn't excel with the great talents of Andre Braugher. I highly recommend it for those who loved JAG, Lost, and Law and Order. My husband and I agree that it is a total mix of Hunt for Red October and Crimson Tide. It raises the big question...what if this really happened. I wish On-Demand had future shows! I can't stop from being on the edge of my seat.

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!!!!

I really liked this show when it started out. For the first few episodes, I was intrigued by its various mysteries and impressed by a general sense of intelligence. But then, as sometimes happens with me, I began to lose interest. I would watch the episodes, but even though I found them somewhat interesting, my desire to see succeeding episodes began to lessen.

What happened? I'm honestly not quite sure. I think part of the problem was I really didn't care that much about the characters, outside of the captain. I sympathized with their plight, and in many cases understood their actions, and in some cases admired them, but I found them generally a generic bunch rather than living, breathing people.

I also think that even though I found the various mysteries intriguing, I also found them a little exhausting, leaving me on too little solid ground. And I was definitely annoyed by the island bad guy, because he was far more unstoppable than seemed realistic (I don't like unrealistically invulnerable evil people; it's the same reason I don't watch episodes of Bones about their hacker/serial killer).

Whatever the reason, after episode 8 I decided to stop watching. Even when I heard it had been cancelled, and had managed to resolve itself by the end, I just didn't feel like watching the final five episodes to see how it turned out.

I wish I had a better explanation for how I went so quickly from, wow, this show is awesome to, I just don't care. It's just one of those things.

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.
