    They should've focused on the story and not the gimmick. I don't know who they thought would watch this, but I don't think anyone will.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Again the industry feel a need to invoke woke feminist ideology instead of focusing on a good story. literally started with a woman experiencing difficulty and eventually joining the military by earning it. And then all of the sudden shes experiencing every single kind of "toxic masculine" action in the book... when shes special forces..?? and they just keept on going with it. The message behind this show is obvious, take military and guns and aim the "story" at toxic men and then change the story to a woman who is experiencing getting date rape drugged etc. Apparently hollywood are psychologists now and they use movies to.. "give men empathy" because men are toxic..?
    i think the days of movies and tv shows are over.
    The days of propaganda, brain wash and psychological warfare has arrived.    … Expand

    Enjoyable show. It may not be realistic but was entertaining. Hopefully, there will be a second season.

    Despite occasionally stretching plausibility, Taylor Sheridan’s latest event TV series mixes explosive espionage action with domestic issues to mostly absorbing effect.

    It's clear that Sheridan knows how to write engaging, addictive drama. With "Lioness," he's trying to do too many things at once for any one of them to be successful.

    Special Ops: Lioness isn’t a mess, but it’s strangely inessential and inert, given its cast and Sheridan’s involvement. There are better, similar shows out there.
