What Michael Bay TV show is now on Netflix?
As of today, all five seasons of TNT’s The Last Ship series are finally available to stream on Netflix. Based on the 1988 novel of the same name written by William Brinkley, it ran on-air from 2014 to 2018. The show starred Eric Dane as Tom Chandler, Rhona Mitra as Dr. Rachel Scott, Charles Parnell as Russ, Travis Van Winkle as Danny, Marissa Neitling as Kara, Christina Elmore as Alisha, John Pyper-Ferguson as Tex, Jocko Sims as Carlton, Bridget Regan as Sasha, Jodie Turner-Smith as Sergeant Azima Kandie, LaMonica Garrett as Lieutenant Commander Cameron, and more.
The Last Ship was executive-produced by Bay, along with showrunners Steven Kane and Hank Steinberg. Executive producers were Andrew Form, Brad Fuller, Paul Holahan, Jack Bender, Michael Katleman, and Jonathan Mostow. In addition to leading the cast, Dane also previously served as a producer. The Grey’s Anatomy vet passed away earlier this year at the age of 53 due to respiratory failure caused by his amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
“At the helm of the USS Nathan James en route to the Arctic, Capt. Tom Chandler learns that the destroyer will be in the best possible place – a circumstance his crew must utilize – to save humanity from extinction. A virus has wiped out more than half the population since the ship embarked. Despite orders from the U.S. government to return, Chandler, believing home is now a shadow of itself, decides the safest place to develop a vaccine is at sea. That task falls mainly to virologist Dr. Rachel Scott, a civilian originally assigned to the Nathan James to study birds,” reads the show’s official synopsis.
