Has anyone seen the first season of "Shooter" that is now on Netflix?   It is directed by Mark Wahlburg and stars Ryan Philippe.   Other than some "hollywooding" of some of the shots, it is a fantastic series.  

If anyone likes a good show with some action, suspense, and sweet weaponry, this is a good show to watch.   Hell, my wife even loved it and she doesn't care for shows like 24, etc.

I caught it when it was on USA last fall. It was a pretty good show. Seemed to have a good bit of filler though. They basically took the movie and stretched it out over 10 episodes. I feel like it would have been better as an FX series as opposed to USA, but I'll still watch the new season starting next week.

Lost interest in the show but was a fan of the movie.

The lead guy (Phillipe?) just doesn't suit the part in my opinion.

Not too bad.  Since I fly a lot, usually for 8-12 hours at a stretch, I watch a lot of stuff I might not watch while I'm home.  Shooter kept me occupied for a while, not too bad.

If you haven't seen Way of the Gun, it will restore your faith in Ryan Phillipe.

Season 2 of Shooter is on TV now.  About three episodes or so in.  Good as well.

I didn't get why it was kind of a rip off of the movie. Are all the good writers dead? I did enjoy season 1. Hoping season 2 is good, but has an original story line.

Season 2 is original and not based off the movie.  Lots of moving parts, so you need to pay attention or you will be rewinding to rewatch stuff.
