Don't get the hate,Solid Show so far(8.5/10)

i just watched all three episodes and i thought the show had a nice pace,likable characters ,good storyline and pretty edgy for what is allowed on basic cable.I'm a Huge Walton Goggins fan(The Shield) he was solid playing the mentally tortured broken ex seal with a drinking problem.Decent amount of action ,so why the hate???? Are snowflakes offended by muslims being portrayed as terrorists???? I know with this PC culture we live in nowadays.If you really like this show i recommend checking out Strike Back which is even more violent and action packed with plenty of nudity,sex, language for anybody who likes adult shows and ain't easily offended(no safe spaces will be available)

Again i don't care if for some reason it's not accurate enough for some people ,i like to be entertained and not bored to sleep...a few F bombs or hand getting chopped off doesn't bother me.History channel knows how to make some quality shows first vikings and now this . Solid 8.5 out of ten so far.

I agree. I'm enjoying the show. I gave it a 8/10. It's not perfect but I don't think any show is. I'm actually grateful I'm not military, so I'm not here nitpicking it to death. I'm just enjoying.

You're right about Vikings. What an great show about an amazing people. Though it can be very graphic at times, I feel like it's a realistic showing of their lives.

And some people thought Six was overly violent. They've obviously never seen Vikings perform a death eagle.

That's Blood Eagle. Anyway the show is getting progressively better since the crap pilot.

You're right. My bad. Call it a blond moment.

Hell I'm military and I can enjoy it for what it is.

I agree. Sometimes people get too much into the details.

Thanks for bringing up the only thing I was really curious about BMP!

I LOVED Strike Back and miss it terribly. So when I saw the notices for SIX, my first thought was whether or not it would be as good, in it's own way of course. So is it? Cause SB is still my "go to" action show of choice so if SIX has a shot at being even half that good then I'll absolutely go check it out.

I for one, never thought SB was over-the-top or even completely unrealistic in it's portrayal of sex, war and in-fighting in general. ALL the leads trained with SAS and SAS told the guy who is now playing Rick on WD he was a natural with weapons and if he ever wanted to switch jobs to give them a call!

So, should I be hopeful about SIX or do you think SB was so much better that SIX won't be able to stand up against it?

Thanks for your time! 

If you love strike back like me you will really dig this show , give it a shot. It's not on the same level as strike back with the chemistry between leads(comedy and hot naked babes) and the fact that it was on a premium channel and they just have more they can do but overall Six is a easy watch with a great lead in Goggins to get your strike back/call of duty fix.

Thanks BMP!

I will. 

Ha! Let me join you two in praise for SB...I miss it! It was fun to discover it while it was still a bit rough around the edges. I liked the early seasons better than when they went mainstream.

Anyway, I am here mostly because of how much I enjoyed Goggins on Justified. I ran into the listing for Six by accident and decided to try it out. So far, in spite of all the obvious and not-so-obvious location and other errors, I am enjoying it.
