I watched last night. Was not bad, but that good either. Interesting premise. I can't help but think they rushed things a bit too much. They easily could have made 3 episodes out of what happened during the Pilot. I find it funny they find an island, presumably in the Indian Ocean where everyone speaks fluent English.

I'll keep watching, but they need to tighten things up a bit.

It kept my attention enough to have me come back next week. I think this show can be good but not sure how many seasons it can really go and still be good. It seems like a show that would be done in two seasons. Hell, they could tell the whole story in one season so if ratings arent good they can at least finish it out.

Watched Elementary last night and it was really good. So far he is my favorite Sherlock Holmes and Watson is a women, loved it.
ABC is re-running it tonight in-between "Shark Tank" and "20/20".
It is also available here:

I thought it was pretty good. Lots of possibilities.

...maybe. Gotta suspend a lot of disbelief and ignore alot of technical errors. A strategic asset (Ohio with Tridents) wouldn't be used to deliver SEALS. Some have been converted to SSGNs (Tomahawk lanchers) and are used for covert ops (SEALS)...but I don't think any are armed with ICBMs.

It'll be interesting to see what the SEAL mission into Pakistan was all about, and what's up in DC.

Seriously though, I thought it was going to be a little cheesy, but it was done well. There is no clear good guy/bad guy and that makes it all the better. I plan to keep watching. They will need to expand it to keep it going. How much story can you get from defending an island?
I think this is just the base. They can't live on the sub forever. And I LOVED the way the captain announced that it was their station and Island, but now its his. I'm SO reminded of the way Sisko was portrayed on ST-DS9. Not so much that they resemble each other but how they are played. He's not going to back down after his demo with the missle.

There are so many questions left hanging its so intreging.

Love this show. It's intense, intelligent, timely, with interesting characters. Very glad to see Scott Spellman (from Felicity) starring.

It would be nice to see a more accurate portrayal of this nations military in a series rather than hollywood's version.
Here's hoping the show tanks!

I am hooked. Don't know how many seasons they can get out of it. The first episode was pretty good though.

Loved it. They do a ton of post apoc type themes but have never done a pre post apoc with a sub. Cool story

Finally watched it. My honey loved it. He loves the military stuff, and big explosions. I thought it was pretty good, and I liked it a lot more than Revolution.
I really liked the cast.
