  1. interesting concept but i have a feeling it will lack likable characters and it looks really cheap

  2. I like that they have made it a real country (Pakistan) rather than some made up one that is cool, feels more real.

    I love the fighting against the Government angle as well

    Looking forward to this one a lot

  3. This looks awesome. I'll check it out.

  4. Parts of this really interest me and other parts leave me wondering why they went that route!
    I do not have high hopes for this honestly despite liking both Shawn Ryan and Andre Braugher quite a bit.

  5. Andre Braugher is not f---ing around.  I'll give this a try.

  6. Wrong network, and kind of cheap looking. I'll pass.

  7. SO we're supposed to root for a bunch of traitors that disobeyed orders and abandoned their country? LOL.

    I'll watch it, but unless there is more to the story I think I will be rooting for the US.

  8. Now this looks amazing!

  9. very interesting premise...

    ReplyDelete
  10. Not sure how I feel about it, I;m going to wait for some early reactions first.

  11. this looks more like a miniseries, however i like the trailer so far

  12. I love Andre Braugher so I'll give this a try.

  13. I like it ! The editing of the trailer is cheesy but I can tell there's quality, originality and ambition in that pilot.

    After seeing a bunch of trailers saying that the shows are "from the producers of GI Joe", "from the writer of Gossip Girl" or "from the producers of Pretty Little Liars", it's good to have a show bragging about something actually worth bragging about :  "from the creator of The Shield". Hell yeah ! It's one of the best show ever done, for those (lucky ones) who didn't know (when you're done with The Shield, watch Terriers and The Chicago Code).

    I'm surprised that this network series clearly states that US officials have ordered one of their submarines to nuke Pakistan, they're going for the real thing and not made-up names like on 24 or The West Wing, surprising but I like it.

    I like that Andre Braugher's character isn't a good guy. By that I mean that he can across as an asshole by taking over a station of innocent guys posted on the island and by launching a missile on Washington. He's not a total antihero yet, but anyway I didn't expect anything less from Shawn Ryan.

    I hope that either they'll reshoot all the shots including the missiles or that they will be taken out. If you can't have something look good, don't include it, don't settle for a mediocre aspect because it's TV. Same for the submarine getting hit by a missile, there's a few sparkles, the camera is shaking... it looks cheap. 
    It was by far the ABC pilot I was most looking forward to, and it still is. Huge potential, it feels like a show I have not seen before, and even if Ryan had to tweak his story to adapt to ABC's standards (the love story with the wife at home), I'm sure he'll manage to do just great. The Chicago Code was on a network too (FOX) and it was awesome, there's no reason why Last Resort can't be good as well.

  14. So the traitorous terrorists trying to kill Americans are the good guys?  I don't think you thought that premise all the way through.  Pass.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Holy Shit this looks Outstanding!

     My excitement is out of the stratosphere!

    ReplyDelete
  16.  Yeah me too! I can't believe how many people are passing this up,it looks awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  17.  Oh yeah! This looks freaking great,with lots of action definitely checking this out!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Well said. Shawn Ryan's track record is flawless as far as I'm concerned and Andre Braugher is an incredible actor. The combination of those two can only lead to greatness. I expect very good things from this series as long as ABC allows the writers creative freedom and doesn't interfere too much.

    My only concern with this show right now is the time slot. Thursday nights are extremely competitive and it's launching without a lead-in. I hope that ABC markets the hell out of it.

  19. I'll def. watch this.. looks really interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Cute. Almost dumb enough to be adorable. Almost

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'll just pass.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Looks amazing - definitely on the watch list.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I read the script. It`s like an new Lost without any sci-fi elements, maybe a mix of Lost, The Unit and Jericho (since they want to establish themself). Had a few funny characters. Good plots and themes in the pilot. The show could work as both a mini-serie and a maybe two season-show, at least with a man like Shawn Ryan steering the boat. 

    Also a plus is the actors. Its a variation of actors, not just new fresh people, older good actors and those between. Like the main character a lot, and Andre Braugher is a perfect candiate for such a role. Also Autnum Reeser had decent role. But i liked the island-stuff more. One of the best ensemble cast since Lost, Game of Thrones and Sons of Anarchy of main characters i think.

  24. I'm in.... looks great

    ReplyDelete
  25. I wasn't very interested in this before watching the trailer, but I definitely am now. 

    ReplyDelete
  26. Innovative, but I don't think I could get into it.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Oh, dear, time for me to crash... After your first sentence, I didn't read your second sentence as "excitement", but "excrement" o.O          Being Canadian, watching anything with a strong US armed forces storyline is uncomfortable... I think I'll give this one a pass, at least until hear a review a few episodes in that can change my mind.

    ReplyDelete
  28. That looks pretty awesome. I like the concept, hope they do it well.

    ReplyDelete
  29. That is so cool looking! It was a false flag attack! I am glad they survived it. They were trying to get an act of war.

    ReplyDelete
  30. No not traitors set up to take the fall. Unauthenticated orders can not be followed!

    ReplyDelete
  31. You obviously do not understand what is a False Flag attack. That is what was happening. The boat was supposed to attack the country and then the other ships would attack them. starting a larger war.

    ReplyDelete
  32. They are not traitors! They are set up to commit a war atrocity. Then had Unauthenticated orders. Those cannot be followed. You do not understand what a false flag attack is.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Didn't like the synopsis, but the trailer looks good.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I don't know why, but this um.... screams CBS.Which means I won't be watching.

    ReplyDelete
  35. No lawyers, no doctors, no detectives? OMG what is happening!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I like the look of this.  Defintiely going to be watching.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I´ll give it a try. looks ok.

    ReplyDelete
  38. so many guest-cast members from #H50- what a party!

    ReplyDelete
  39. WTF did I just watch? It kinda looks good, but I didn't really get it. Still don't know if I'll check it out.

    ReplyDelete
  40. O.O Would you destroy an entire country if you were asked? 

    ReplyDelete
  41. Thanks for the insight. It definitely sounds like it could have potential, I'm willing to give it a try.

    ReplyDelete
  42. You and laure3341 need to get glasses. 

    ReplyDelete
  43. That would make it a little better...but that wasn't clear from the trailer (at least not to me, but maybe I need to read more spy thrillers?). Still threatening nuclear war is kinda hard to get behind. I'm hoping they clarify this stuff in the pilot, I'm totally willing to change my mind.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Probably not. But then again I wouldn't turn around and threaten nuclear war if I was so concerned about the preservation of life. Like most high concept pilots there are some holes. 

    ReplyDelete
  45. Well, it's an under 3 minute trailer. Certainly more will be made clear in the pilot. 

    ReplyDelete
  46. Look they got attacked by our own gov't when they did the right thing, So they used the only weapons the people in Washington understood. That gave them protection from further attack.

    ReplyDelete
  47.  Every one in awhile i get in a crazy silly mood,yesterday happened to be one of them.Sorry if it offended you. I didn't look at the show in the same frame you did,i am not uncomfortable with that,real life scares me,living through 9/11 made me a little more then uncomfortable.Last Resort is make believe. 

    ReplyDelete
  48. I understand that they were attacked after not following orders. But nuclear war seems like an overreaction for whistle-blowing. If you have to set up your own country then it seems like you have no recourse within the US government or population...you couldn't call CNN a couple of senators? Which kinda means, they've made the US the enemy, which seems like a dicey line to walk. 

    But I haven't seen more than a few minutes. So that's just my first reaction. It might not be taking itself so seriously and end up being campy fun, it might be a huge misstep in the search for a new story concept. I dunno know. But choosing the ruling portion of the US gov as enemy is a hard sell.

    ReplyDelete
  49. 13 or how many episodes out of it? Hum, I'll give it a try. Would it be a movie, though, and I'd definetely watch it!

    ReplyDelete
  50. I like this. More contemporary than SeaQuest. A little more serious than Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Feels like a present day 20,000 Leagues.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Not the ruling gov't a section of the ruling gov't. This war was to lead to a coup with them not doing the false flag attack and being sunk caused those plans to be stopped. The firing of the missile was a warning. Not to play games with the crew's safety.  Perhaps they tried to get their message out but was not able to do so because of a total news blackout caused by the NSA. I suspect you do not know what the NSA is capable of doing.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I suspect that you watched something different than I did and that you think that spy thrillers are true. Plus, we know they weren't isolated they were calling their families and there were news reports. Coup? Where was that? But if you saw something different or have seen more than just this preview, it is very possible that your scenarios could play out. I'm just talking about what we can see in this preview. The White House is lying that's the ruling portion of the US gov--not a faction. And it is hard to make the president of the US a bad guy right from the beginning.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I do not know what your experiences in these types of matters. However, I do have much experiences in what I am talking about. So from Experiences I can categorically say these types of scenarios do happen and will happen. There are factions at work right now to cause a war in Iran. So this use of a ballistic submarine from this plot is possible.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Looks good. I'll give this a chance.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I like this. And I like Scott Speedman. I'll be watching...
