TV show description:
An action and military TV series, this show focuses mainly on Michael Stonebridge and Damien Scott; two members of a top-secret intelligence agency known as Section 20.
A clear-thinking and reliable soldier, British Sergeant Michael Stonebridge (Philip Winchester) brings strategic clout to Section 20. He and his wife Kerry are the picture of a perfect couple, but there’s more going on in his family life than meets the eye.
Damien Scott (Sullivan Stapleton) is a former Delta Force commando who was discharged on the eve of the U.S. invasion of Iraq. His confidence with a weapon is matched only by his way with women. While his cocky style is often at odds with his more staid colleagues, he always gets the job done.
Captain Kate Marshall (Eva Birthistle) is a highly educated, highly trained, highly attuned military intelligence analyst. She’s no desk jockey though and is actually one of Section 20’s most skilled and experienced undercover operatives.
Colonel Eleanor Grant (Amanda Mealing) is the no-nonsense commander of Section 20, an elite military black ops unit within the British government that focuses on high-risk, top-priority targets. She’s clear, authoritative and smart as hell.
Captain Oliver Sinclair (Rhashan Stone) is Section 20’s chief intelligence officer, responsible for the logistics and management of the entire team and the high-tech mobile unit known as the crib. In all day-to-day operations, he is Colonel Grant’s right-hand man.
Sergeant Julia Richmond (Michelle Lukes) is Section 20’s chief communications officer, responsible for maintaining contact with agents in the field and all other relevant transmissions. She is exceptionally bright, technologically adept and proficient in several languages.
Episode #76
After receiving shocking intel from an unlikely Russian informant, S20 decides to reunite for one final mission to track down Arianna (Ivana Milicevic) and avenge their comrades. This time, however, they’re doing things a little differently.
First aired: April 17, 2020.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Strike Back TV series? Do you think it should have been renewed for a ninth season?
Ilove strike back
Strike back, to me was possibly the best and most entertaining series ever made, especially seasons 1 to 5, but 6 to 8 were not far behind by the end.
A show this good must bring in millions of viewers, so why end it ?
they should revive it, with good old Stanbridge and scott
I’ve just binged series 1-8 for the second time. Best TV series I’ve watched. Life feels incomplete now. Need more strike back. Make a series nine. It will have big rating as all 8 seasons have from the fans and new people beginning to watch this series
Bring back Strike Back or cancel Cinemax. Strike Back is the sole reason I subscribe to Cinemax, as it’s the best series since Dexter. HBO can’t make a decent series and Showtime is about to dump Ray Donovan , so I’ll be dropping my Showtime subscription soon. I’m hoping Cinemax will be smart enough to bring back Strike Back, so I don’t have to drop them and pick up Epix instead. Strike Back requires an IQ above 10 to understand what’s going on, unlike the other talentless crap being aired on the other premium channels
Please make a season 9, love love this show.
I feel the same way you do; I hope this series will comeback at some point in time.
Strike Back MUST NOT be cancelled! Please give us season 9 – great tv.
Loved it and hated to see the ride come to an end.
This was an amazing TV show from season 1 in 2010 till season 8 in 2020 it consistently great story-lines, amazing cast of actor & crew and never failed to deliver a good healthy dose of action, adventure, thrill & shock I am so sad to see it end but I thank you for entertaining us for a decade.
The original series was great, not so keen on these new series. They seem like overgrown school kids, more banks than story.
Love the show! Never miss it! It should be renewed for season nine! There are still a lot more terrorists to kill! LoL
Love the show just stop killing off the cast members.
Great show. I would love it to continue. Sooo entertaining!
totally love this show should be a regular series so much action
Love Strike Back!!!! Hate to see it go. Boo Goo!!!! Jmissil
The show has been resurrected and now working on their second season since the return.
sad……casting is weak
And the show will go on !
