Six

This went from a 7 for the first season to a 6 for the second season. It went from a good solid entertaining show about the Navy Seals, to trying to be another Homeland. It's not Homeland. Not even close. I wish they just stuck to being what they were good at in the first season.

I really liked the show season 1 with Walton Goggins. After that it has gone downhill fast. The show does still make me think, but the show needs more insight into seal training and brotherhood. The teenage girl stuff seems a bit hollywood (especially the girl who is being recruited).

I'm getting tired of the new trend where season 1 of a show will feature a prominent actor, and then they try to have a bunch of unknowns carry the show.

I'm loving this series! Walt rocks it as always as the tortured man. He's a man with a dark past and I want to know what has caused him so much pain. As an arm brat I totally understand the home life and the fear what my Dad was going through. The action is spot on and the family dynamics both at home and in the team or great. One of the biggest complaints I've heard is about the violence but I feel it's nothing we haven't already seen. I'm more taken by the husband and wife relationships and how the navigate those waters. That's the gold I think. It's Zero Dark Thirty with family. I just wish everyone wasn't so good looking. My new favorite show for the season.

Films and TV shows about Navy Seals or other special forces personnel is the current rage. Some have not done so well (e.g., "Shooter") but this series really delivers. They manage to move seamlessly between the personal lives and the military assignments, and this type of insight has rarely been seen before, although the last year of the "The Unit" did deal with some of these issues.

I also enjoy the interactions between the men, and how what they experience at home and in the field comes back to alter their interactions.

The acting here is excellent and it often looks more like a docudrama rather than a TV show. The principal team members (Barry Sloane, Alex Caulder, Ricky Ortiz) are two dimensional people and the conflicts within and between are portrayed very well. It's good to see that these characters have their own identities.

I'm a big fan of Walton Goggins, having appreciated him in "The Shield" and later enjoyed his robust performance in "Justified". He doesn't disappoint and delivers a nuanced piece of work - probably his best and he gets better as the series progresses.

I especially appreciate that at the end of each episode there are highlights from actual combat veterans.

I'm not a former Seal so I can't begin to say whether or not this is true to life. I can say that it is entertaining.

Hollywood manages to make perhaps the greatest special forces team look like a bunch of loose cannon F-ups. The show has quality actors and there are good stories to tell, but this program seems to digress into the personal problems...making each character a drunk, a absent father behind on support, a violent control freak, etc, etc, etc....you fill in the blank. Not a normal balanced person among the characters.

This is far from reality. Seals are a little crazy, but they are the some of the most personally disciplined people on the planet earth.

This show needs new writers or it will be canceled quickly. Can we focus a little more on their loyalty and commitment to each other. The danger they face, the difficult training and the bad guys they fight?
