No, I only had a week but didn't get finished watching it. Took it back to my library and was able to sign it out again.

I can't renew with the long waiting list they have.

I was happy to see Dichen Lachman again - she seems to be doing well at getting some good roles in higher quality shows - not just window dressing in a Charlie Sheen farce. I didn't recall knowing that she would be in it.

The premise of having the entire command structure of the only remaining combat ship in the world off boat for a party did seem quite lackluster. Maybe the idiot writers for Gravity were lent for this season opener episode.

Dichen is the helo pilot. Sasha is played by Bridget Regan.

Dichen plays Jesse, Sasha's friend with the helo.

She's had wonderful roles in Dollhouse, Agents of SHIELD, Last Resort (US Sub, LS reminds me of this), The 100, Shameless, Supergirl, King & Maxwell.

Thanks for the info JSF. She is good.

Generally action heroes or villians are carefully selected, and she played Roulette on Superfirl.
Otherwise, the rest of those shows I have considered to be quality productions, not lame fluff.

And I'm trying to catch Lust For Love to see what all of the Whedonverse alum accomplished.

I've not seen "Gravity" so can't speak to it but yeah that did hit me as strange. I couldn't help thinking as I was watching it that it was a set up.

Gravity was a nonstop sequence of stupidity like this plot of the first episode, which clueless Clooney seemed to think was doltish enough for NASA.


So far with this season, seems to be a lot more killing off of the cast. As if Joss got loaned to the writers group.

Rush Limbaugh must be watching.

He just now mentioned he believes something on TV (in sarcasm) because he saw it on "Adam Baldwin's show The Last Ship"
So that must have been an episode last night?

Whenever I hear that brief drum roll at the end of a scene, going to commercial break, I'm reminded of the same sound cue or tension builder from Firefly.
I don't recall hearing that same sound sequence on other shows. I also no longer watch enough TV to know if it has become commonplace since Firefly developed it.
It seems applicable to adventure rather than just sci-fi.
Does anybody recognize it from other shows, before or after Firefly? The only other possibility I conjure right now is Dark Angel, but I don't think it is.

Looks like the waiting list is about 38 days for our County Library.

Another 3 died on the episode I just watched. Of the heroes, not including that other guy.

It is really enjoyable to have a quality show to watch.

I'm watching S3. I have come to savor the casting of all players in uniform now. Last season I was annoyed with Elizabeth Rohm, she seemed a weasel or bitch. Now she not hiding it anymore, screwing all American survivors. Nestor Serrano seems always typecast as a jackhole or traitor. I tried witholding judgement, but now he also has clarified his traitorous streak. I keep hoping they ride a bomb together.

Some weeks ago I saw reruns of L&O, with the episode of Rohm's departure, which affirmed my disappoint in her characters.

Röhm was in Season 2?

Rumors are going around that Season 5 will be the last.
I think 4 has been rather disappointing. I'm actually a few eps behind and in no rush to catch up.

Sorry, I was thinking of the first disc of S3, which I saw over a month ago.

So, Adam never made it to Paradiso on Ezra in The Train Job, but now he makes it to Paraiso in Last Ship. And the USS Hayward had XO Cobb. Both places the evil empire are transporting chemicals. I'm wandering if Producer Eric Dane has seen Firefly.

With so many lost crew, soon they wont be able to man the ship.

The episode Resistance, near end of S3. Anybody think it should have been called The Train Job?

And an old friend FBI Agent Ford from Due South showed up - Alex Carter.

Well, Season 3 seemed a might meatier than I recall S1.

Didn't notice exact copies of FF dialogue, but a couple echoes.
"That's a course we don't come back from" - Slattery to Capt Meylan.

"We all have a choice" - perhaps just watching The Train Job made me think that way.

Wonderful show.

I’m mixed about the cancellation. I have enjoyed the show overall, but I think the quality of it has steadily gone down since season 3. I wasn’t impressed by s4 at all. I’m hoping 5 is better so it’ll go out on a high note.

I really am wondering about the lack of info about S5. Most of the seasons have premiered in June.
Here we are at the end of May, but not a word.

watched the first season and really enjoyed it...for me the entire story ended just fine with the next to last epi where Rhona funds the cure...bad guys get their cumupens, no political correct protection of any certain group..etc...and while they were still at sea, with one lone ship...kinda like..well..you know...

They made a major disconnect from reality this week, it’s really straining my willing suspension of disbelief.
(Not that it wasn’t strained already)


Oh, and it seems that this season is Moby Dick.
They pretty much smack you in the face with it.
