Review of Last Resort

Last Resort (I) (2012–2013)
7/10
Novel concept for a show but slightly flawed
7 December 2012
I really like the idea of having a rogue U.S. submarine who refuses orders and decides to dock on an island when it's obvious that there decision would make them very unpopular amongst those who sent them that order. The show will only get about 13 total episodes to tell it's story and maybe if they lasted till the end of season 1 they would've been able to keep it fresh for that amount of time. But the show's concept doesn't lend itself well to a long term series.

Andre Braugher as always is great as the ships captain. Not so big on Scott Speedman, I kind of would've preferred his former cast mate from Felicity Scott Foley who was great in another Shawn Ryan series The Unit to have had his role as the ships X.O. Robert Patrick as always is great as the ships Chief of the Boat. Autumn Reeser who's been in stuff like Entourage and No Ordinary Family is good in her role as one of the people who helped design the submarine.
