The Last Ship Season One
SCORE: 60
On Black Friday in the year of our Lord 2015 I saw The Last Ship Season One for a really low price. I think I paid four to maybe ten dollars for it. I did not know anything about it, and decided to gamble that it might be interesting. I am very thankful I did because The Last Ship Season One is a very interesting show with quite the premise. A virus called the red flu kills eighty percent of the Earth’s population.
The crew on the USS Nathan James is not aware of this as they have two CDC scientists collecting samples from the Arctic. The scientists are actually trying to find the origin of the virus which comes from birds. They then work on surviving in this new world, finding a vaccine, and hope to find a cure. We see a real lesson in might makes right in The Last Ship Season One.
Some of the bad stuff in The Last Ship Season One is blood, gore, sexual deviancy, sex outside of marriage, death, explosions, bad language, and infected people with their boils. The military aspect of The Last Ship Season One is done really well. The same thing goes with the humor. Lines like: “the Geneva convention does not exist anymore, Geneva does not even exist.”
Adam Baldwin from Firefly does an amazing job in The Last Ship Season One. I just wish he had made some comment about grenades in The Last Ship Season One. Eric Dane plays an amazing captain of the ship in The Last Ship Season One. Rhona Mitra does a fantastic job as the head scientist in The Last Ship Season One. Her struggles are very real in The Last Ship Season One.
The Last Ship Season One is a show for the older members of the family. I enjoyed the drama, and story being told. I am not a fan of there being only ten episodes. Some of the bonuses are cool like the 2014 Comic Con panel. I wish a bit more could have been left to the imagination in certain bloody scenes. I know The Last Ship is currently running in its third season. I plan on continuing to watch this show as long as season prices are ten dollars or less.
