The Last Ship (2014–2018)
10/10
The Last Ship is perfect in every way! It's even Micahel Bay!

Warning: Spoilers
This show is perfect! A post apocalyptic action thriller that is patriotic, action packed, and wonderfully touching - and it's a Michael Bay project! Sometimes the acting is so over the top that it's melodramatic, and I LOVE IT!

Eric Dane is now Commander McSteamy, and anyone under his command would follow him to the gates of hell. Rhona Mitra as Dr. Scott who makes the cure to save the world is perfectly convincing and is the McLovely to Dane's McSteamy giving a new meaning to power couple. All of the actors are wonderful and they give it their all.

The inner workings of the Navy Battleship Destroyer fictionally dubbed the USS Nathan James is actually portrayed by the real active Navy Destroyers the Dewey and Halsey, making the show superbly authentic. Even real navy sailors act as extras, and the real life US Secretary of the Navy, Ray Mabus, plays himself.

To make he show even more perfect, Adam Baldwin - Jayne from Firefly - plays the Navy XO Slattery with a touch of brilliant insanity that he portrays in Firefly, making some of his actions delightfully unpredictable, such as when he threatens to "Keel Haul" one of the doctors who has gone to the dark side after his wife and daughter were kidnapped by a Russian Admiral - Ravil Isyanov - who is the Napoleon incarnate.

You want action and a thrill to go with it? This is your show!
