Next summer, you’ll be able to watch season two of The Last Ship TV show on TNT. The cable channel has picked up the new action series for a second season of 13 episodes.
In a statement, TNT president Michael Wright said, “The Last Ship has become this summer’s top drama among key adult demos with its epic scale and visceral storytelling.”
On The Last Ship, the crew of the USS Nathan James must try to find a cure for a deadly virus that has wiped out most of the world’s population. The cast includes Eric Dane, Adam Baldwin, Rhona Mitra, Charles Parnell, Christina Elmore, Michaela McManus, Sam Spruell, Travis Van Winkle, and Tracy Middendorf.
The first four episodes of Last Ship have averaged 4.66 million viewers each week along with a 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic. It’s TNT’s third most-watched series this summer, behind Rizzoli & Isles and Major Crimes.
Today, the cable channel also renewed Major Crimes and Falling Skies for next summer. The latter will return for its final season.
zWhat do you think? Do you like The Last Ship? Are you glad it’s been renewed or, do you think it should have been cancelled instead?
The Last Ship is one of the best series I’ve ever seen! Please keep the episodes coming! Looking forward to Season 2!!!
I love the series. Please keep showing.
Thanks
This is an AWESOME show. Being a Veteran, I love watching military programming and this is one of the best I have seen in along time! Glad it is being brought back for another season. Can’t wait for summer to get here. Hope there are many more seasons after this one.
Love this show. Please bring it back
I love, love this show. I am hoping that the networks will get rid of some of the dumb “reality” shows. Why waste money on these stupid shows when they can keep shows that matter like the Last Ship. There are so many really good shows on TV right now but are being crowded out by the trashy reality shows. I don’t mind the ones that showcase talent but what about the trashy ones? Please, keep The Last Ship.
I love this show. Watching it last summer, I couldn’t wait for the next episode to air. I’m very happy it is coming back. I can’t wait to see it.
great show, looking forward to this summers show.
great show, looking for its return this summer.
Love the show. I want to see more!
My compliments to the cast who I thought were all fantastic. Props to Eric Dane, Adam Baldwin, Rhona Mitra, Charles Parnell, Christina Elmore, Michaela McManus, Sam Spruell, Travis Van Winkle, and Tracy Middendorf!!! All fantastic. One final comment I was surprised to find out it was a US production. I thought it was either a British or Canadian production. Nothing against the US productions but they all seem to follow a standard formula and are very predictable. Perhaps the director (who I did not look up) is form either of those two countries. If not he/she is someone we should… Read more »
I really enjoyed the program. It had a good story plot (not the typical everyone has become a zombie) and the cast was outstanding. I’m now watching it in reruns which I guess means a new series will be coming out this summer. I’m pleased because the recent crop of science fiction programs have been just awful! I can only support Lydia’s remarks “Great cast, good writing with none of the other gratuitous garbage and vulgarity that takes away from good story telling. Glad to see it is renewed.” I can’t add much more than that! David
This is a good program. I can not understand why the network would consider removing this project. Very happy it is returning.
This is one of those shows that if it were on nbc, they would cancel it.
nbc wouldn’t know a great show if it bit them in the buttocks.
My wife and I are addicted to this show because of the great story line, great actors and the great visuals.
Keep on keeping on, it’s great.
Just finished binge watching The Last Ship. Wow – what an interesting show! Doesn’t quite follow the book but the premise is really good. Great job Michael Bay and TNT. This is the kind of television worth watching. Great cast, good writing with none of the other gratuitous garbage and vulgarity that takes away from good story telling. Glad to see it is renewed. Hopefully the writers can add more depth and really flesh this out. If so, it will be a true run away show worth watching for many seasons. Can’t wait to see the next season!
The Last Ship is a great show. Please bring it back. I looked forward to each episode each week of season 1.
