|ShortSummary = During the aftermath of Rip's shooting, Rip succumbs to his gunshot wounds, deeply affecting Graves, Ortiz, and Caulder. While tracing the person responsible for ordering Rip's shooting, CIA Operations officer Gina Cline coerces intelligence from the girlfriend of Bosnian ringleader Dragan. The team's pursuit of Dragan fails when the latter detonates his suicide vest in order to prevent capture, but instead recover Dragan's codebook. Analysis by the CIA leads Cline to believe that an unknown jihadi leader code-named "The Prince", gave the order, and that Michael Nasry had business connections with him. To follow up on this intelligence, Cline visits Nasry at a CIA blacksite.

|ShortSummary = While Bear, Wozniak, and Caulder give Khan medical attention, Cline is forced to make the call between assassinating the Prince and preserving Nasry’s life.

While on a mission in Afghanistan in 2014, U.S. Navy SEAL troop leader Rip Taggart makes a questionable decision when he takes out a possible threat, working for the terrorist Muttaqi, who claims he's American. Two years later, Rip has split from his team and is working as a private security contractor in Nigeria helping to protect an all girls school. While on assignment, Rip is captured by terrorist organization Boko Haram, prompting Rip's former squadmates within SEAL Team Six, including one new member, to locate and rescue him. It is revealed that the brother of the boy Rip killed is alive and active.
22"Her Name Is Esther"Lesli Linka GlatterDavid BroylesJanuary 25, 2017 (2017-01-25)1.50[20]

The reasons behind Rip's departure from SEAL Team Six are revealed. In conjunction with killing the prisoner in Afghanistan, he was also known to be an alcoholic, straining his relationship with his then-wife. While his whereabouts were known to his old teammates through a video clip that the Boko Haram has transmitted, Rip unsuccessfully tries to escape. Michael, the brother of the American killed by Rip who now works for Muttaqi, plots revenge against him by planning to pay the ransom that Boko Haram put on Rip's head and keeping him after.
44"Man Down"Mikael SalomonAlfredo Barrios Jr.February 8, 2017 (2017-02-08)1.55[22]
SEAL Team Six attempts to rescue Rip, as well as the kidnapped school girls and their teacher from the Boko Haram. However, upon arrival in the camp, they discover the hostages gone, and the Boko Haram captors dead. They get themselves into a firefight with a group of soldiers left behind by Michael, who wounded SEAL operative Buckley.
55"Collateral"Peter WernerKaren CampbellFebruary 15, 2017 (2017-02-15)1.60[23]
SEAL Team Six deals with the loss of their teammate Buckley, who had died from his wounds at the Boko Haram compound. Meanwhile, Michael relocates the prisoners to Chad, where Muttaqi has a recruitment center for anyone who wants to enlist in his terrorist organization. Rip is forced to admit his "war crimes" on live television, particularly the time when he killed Michael's brother.
66"Confession"Clark JohnsonWilliam Broyles & Bruce C. McKennaFebruary 22, 2017 (2017-02-22)1.48[24]
SEAL Team Six deals with the fallout over Rip's confession video. They infiltrate the home of the sister of Michael's colleague, Akmal, who owns the jihad training center in Chad. Caulder's adultery is revealed while Bear's frustrations with his previous mission strains his marriage to Lena. Meanwhile, Michael's decision to capture Rip and kill his captors in the process comes to the attention of Muttaqi, who punishes him by honoring Rip's offer of exchanging him and the school girls for 20 of his imprisoned colleagues and giving Michael to Boko Haram to kill him.

During the aftermath of Rip's shooting, Rip succumbs to his gunshot wounds, deeply affecting Graves, Ortiz, and Caulder. While tracing the person responsible for ordering Rip's shooting, CIA Operations officer Gina Cline coerces intelligence from the girlfriend of Bosnian ringleader Dragan. The team's pursuit of Dragan fails when the latter detonates his suicide vest in order to prevent capture, but instead recover Dragan's codebook. Analysis by the CIA leads Cline to believe that an unknown jihadi leader code-named "The Prince", gave the order, and that Michael Nasry had business connections with him. To follow up on this intelligence, Cline visits Nasry at a CIA blacksite.

The SEALs and Cline take shelter in the village of Khishnet to perform the prisoner exchange. However, the Prince has instead sent a platoon of fighters to kill Nasry and the SEALs and capture Cline alive. The ambush is repelled by the SEALs with the aid of the villagers, and Nasry is released in an attempt to help undermine the Prince’s leadership. Back in Virginia, Caulder faints and learns that his next brain injury could be fatal; Marisa befriends Anabel and Jackie.
168"Scorpions in a Bottle"Michael MorrisVincent PaganoJuly 18, 2018 (2018-07-18)0.63[34]
Shortly after returning to the United States, Cline is dismissed from the C.I.A. for executing her prisoner. Using her retirement funds, Cline asks a foreign intelligence agency to trace some phone calls on her behalf and learns of the Prince’s ties to the Russian FSB. While surrendering himself to the Prince, Michael makes a brief video conference call with Marissa, promising to kill all of the SEALs. Michael also kills the FSB agents to prove his loyalty to the Prince, and provides a covert proof-of-life call to Cline. Meanwhile, Marissa makes a failed attempt to assassinate Ortiz.
179"The Reckoning"Stephen KayBruce C. McKenna & Max AdamsJuly 25, 2018 (2018-07-25)0.63[35]

While conducting the raid, the SEALs successfully rescue Hall, but run into complications during extraction. The local villagers who are loyal to the Prince ambush the team, and wound Khan. Bear, Wozniak, and Caulder remain in hostile territory to protect Khan while the rest of the team is extracted.
1810"Danger Close"Kimberly PeirceDavid Broyles & Bruce C. McKennaAugust 1, 2018 (2018-08-01)0.69[36]
While Bear, Wozniak, and Caulder give Khan medical attention, Cline is forced to make the call between assassinating the Prince and preserving Nasry’s life. After being convinced by Ortiz that Nasry is a traitor, Cline orders a drone strike on Nasry’s last position. Meanwhile, Nasry separates himself from the Prince after the latter suspects him of working with the C.I.A., so avoiding the drone strike. During the aftermath, Cline has a final conversation with the Prince before being killed by his suicide grenade. In Virginia, Caulder writhes in agony and presumably dies after having suffered a concussion from his last deployment; Marissa attacks the Ortiz family, but only successfully kills Lena before being killed by Jackie.

Production

[edit]

Joe Manganiello was originally cast as Rip Taggart[37] but left the series in April 2016 "due to a 'manageable' preexisting health issue".[38] About a week after Manganiello's departure, Walton Goggins was cast as his replacement. All of the already done shoots with Manganiello's character, nearly two full episodes, had to be re-shot.[13] Also Christopher Backus had been cast, but left the project to be on the series Roadies before the series started shooting.[39]

Season two, which consists of 10 episodes,[40] was produced by a new production company, Six 2 North Productions Inc. Kimberly Peirce and Colin Bucksey are directors, with George Perkins the executive producer. Season two began filming on July 17, 2017, in Metro Vancouver, around Pemberton,[41] and throughout British Columbia, and completed filming on November 23, 2017.[42][43]

Reception

[edit]

Six has earned positive reviews from critics. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the series has an approval rating of 62% based on 13 reviews, with an average rating of 6.1/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Six's well-crafted action and engaging characters are intriguing in spite of the show's trite premise and familiar narrative."[44] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 54 out of 100 based on 14 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[45]
