TV show description:
This military combat drama series revolves around modern American warriors, the members of Navy SEAL Team Six. Their covert mission to eliminate a Taliban leader in Afghanistan goes awry when they uncover a U.S. citizen working with terrorists.
A commanding leader and brilliant soldier, Richard “Rip” Taggart (Walton Goggins) has served valiantly for 17 years as a SEAL, eleven of those on SEAL Team Six. However, fighting an endless war and facing unspeakable atrocities have taken their toll.
Exiled from the Team and the SEAL life that defined him, Rip has cut all ties to his teammates and his family and is doing contractor work for money in Nigeria. After he’s captured with a strong-willed Nigerian teacher (Nondumiso Tembe) and her schoolgirl students, Rip has to rediscover his SEAL identity to save them. Along the way, he struggles to rediscover his humanity.
Rip’s former SEAL Team Six brothers reunite to put their differences aside to locate and rescue their former troop leader.
From a troubled family in mining country, Joe “Bear” Graves (Barry Sloane) is mentally tough, stubborn, and most of all, prepared. Being a SEAL gives Graves structure and purpose. Rip was his role model and when Rip leaves the team, Graves loses the most important member of his SEAL family. He’ll risk everything to save Rip. Lena (Brianne Davis) is his devoted schoolteacher wife.
A freethinking warrior-philosopher, Alex Caulder (Kyle Schmid) was raised by an absent mother and quickly learned that he couldn’t count on anyone. He believes that his disconnectedness makes him the ultimate warrior because he has nothing to lose. When Caulder’s estranged daughter, Dharma, suddenly shows up in his life, he’s unnerved by it. Will their growing connection be a source of strength, or his Achilles heel?
Unflappable, loyal, and good-hearted, Ricky “Buddha” Ortiz (Juan Pablo Raba) grew up in a large family in South Texas, raised by first-generation immigrants from Mexico. On the team, he keeps the peace and cherishes his family. He knows how good he has it with his wife Jackie (Nadine Velazquez) and their two children. Privately, Ortiz is worried about what his life will look like if he leaves the Team.
A first generation Afghan American, Armin “Fishbait” Khan (Jaylen Moore) was born in Oakland. A practicing Muslim, he’s the sniper on the team, and relied on for his fluency in several Middle Eastern languages.
Robert Chase (Edwin Hodge) was a former law student at Harvard before joining the SEALs. Now he’s the new guy on Six, and he has to fight to be a part of the team while battling the expectations of his home family.
Michael Nasry (Dominic Adams) is a first generation American of Lebanese descent from Michigan. After 9/11, he and his family faced anti-Muslim discrimination. Then, when his father was nearly beaten to death, Michael was radicalized. He traveled to Afghanistan to fight against his own countrymen, and quickly rose in the insurgent ranks. But, as an American, he was always an outsider, and convinced his younger brother Omar to leave Michigan and fight with him in Afghanistan. When Michael watches Rip kill Omar, Michael swears vengeance.

What do you think? Do you like the Six TV show? Should it have been cancelled or renewed for a third season on History?
Bring it back! Only show worth watching that is real
I liked the show and looked forward to seeing it each week. Sorry to see it canceled. Bring it back!!!!!
Please return it back on TV !
love this show. You killed off Walton Goggins. Bring it back
Please put back on. Such an action packed attention capturing series. Needs to have 10 more seasons with a better ending.
Really disappointed the show canceled. I wanted to see who would blow that pysco girls brains out.
Buddah’s wife shot her in the forehead in the series finale. Unless you are talking about Olivia Munns character, in which she took a grenade to the face. So both psycho girls bought the farm.
I enjoyed the show immensely. I am disappointed the series was canceled.
Keep the show running. It’s a great tribute to our fighting men/women. You can’t leave us hanging like that.
Should have never been cancelled.
Should have Never been canceled
I don’t like watching good programs that get cancelled. Loved SIX. Would have skipped it if I knew it’d been cancelled.
Soooo very disappointed this show was cancelled. I found it so much more interesting than the CBS show, and the actors and action more credible. Someone screwed up with this winner.
This was one show that was worth watching. Can’t believe you would end it the way you did to cancel it all together. Your people in charge screwed up canceling six. Must have been anti armed forces person.
Fantastic show……brothers !!
