I can't say enough about how much I love this show. Strike Back is one of the better action shows I've ever seen and is without a doubt one of the most thrilling, action packed shows of all-time! It's about a secret unit in the British Military called Section 20 and follows them on all their dangerous missions across the world. Obviously the first 5 seasons with Sullivan Stapleton (Damien Scott) & Philip Winchester (Michael Stonebridge) are a lot better but the last few seasons with the new guys (Warren Brown and Daniel MacPherson) are still absolutely worth watching. Sad that it had to end but it's absolutely a show you can watch more than once through and still be very entertained!
Strike Back is easily one of my favorite shows of all-time. It's one of the few shows that I love so much that I've watched it all the way through several times and probably will watch it again in the near future. The cast is absolutely incredible, especially the early seasons with Damien Scott and Phillip Winchester. If you're a fan of action and suspense and you still haven't seen this incredible series yet then do yourself a favor and go watch it as soon as you can. I'm warning you now that once you start you won't be able to stop. It's that addicting so make sure to give yourself enough time to binge it.
This isn't really a review, just a disappointment towards the new strike back. I mean this show was never just about guns and fights, but it's the chemistry. you can't buy that. I know might sounds cliche but that's just my opinion.

They should list season 6 separately... would give at most 5 stars. Bad acting, lame story
Strike Back ended with season 5

There is no show or film that has bought this level of war-fighting realism to the screen. It seems that Strike Back through the author Chris Ryan was able to retain the services of real SAS and SBS instructors, something that is a first and omg does it show. Combine that with dedicated really talented actors which again is unheard of, usually your typical action star has the acting range of a brick yet the casting agency has really pulled off a winner. And what about locations? INCREDIBLE, the British intelligence teams operate all over the world in some of the most beautiful areas of the planet.
This show has all the class of James Bond and the barrel-end of SAS-level military realism, America could learn some real lessons from this show.
The Brits could dominate TV if they invested in more shows like this.
This is Bravo Two Zero.....out.
