Derik T @RT90815531 12/14/2024 I really enjoyed the show & basically all the people, but could not stand tank; IMO he came off as very fake & stereotypical (I'm a BAD BAD man!) I really tried to look beyond that but to no avail though. I wish they'd stuck with season 1 style, the 3 seperate rigs, their different workers & owners competing to drill the amount of holes set & be the quickest to do so. From season 2 on they just get more & more scripted feeling all for more drama both on & off the rig. That said, i still very much enjoyed the entire series & wish they'd went longer or even now pick up again or start a new series from other states &/or the off-shore drilling. The show was something new, fresh & different; instead off the same ol' things or another reboot. See more Read all reviews
