So, after watching and reviewing people’s reviews, we have come up with the list of the best Navy SEAL TV shows here.
The Terminal List, SIX, SEAL Team, and The Line are the most popular and the best Navy SEAL TV shows available to stream on various platforms as of 2024.

The Terminal List is the newest and currently most famous TV show about Navy SEALs that was released on July 1, 2023.
On March 6, 2018, Former United States Navy SEAL Jack Carr published a Novel named The Terminal List: A Thriller as the name of the TV show.
The Terminal List television series is based on Jack Carr’s novel The Terminal List: A Thriller.
Still today, The Terminal List’s season one is released. The genre of The Terminal List show is a thriller.
In season one, you are going to see action thrillers, conspiracy thrillers, and of course, a heartbreaking drama. The thrilling moments of The Terminal List series keep you guessing about the next episode.
Marvel comic book superhero actor Chris Pratt is the protagonist of The Terminal List TV show.
James Reece, the main character of this TV show, is a Navy SEAL. The American Government killed all the Navy SEAL, team members.
The Terminal List’s protagonist is fighting against the government to take revenge for killing his team members.
The Terminal List is not based on a true story; Jack Carr, the author of The Terminal List novel, claims the whole story is fictional.
The manner of action and investigation of The Terminal List TV show is worth mentioning. I highly recommend you to see this Navy SEAL TV show.

2. SEAL Team
SEAL Team is also a TV show about Navy SEALs that started in 2017 and still continues to release new seasons.
SEAL Team TV show directed by Max Thieriot and written by Benjamin Cavell.
Military drama and action fiction are the genres of SEAL Team. This TV show brings up the professional and personal lives of the United States Navy SEALs.
The story of the SEAL Team perfectly shows the difficulties that go through every SEAL member and their family.
Like other Navy SEAL TV shows, this show is also not based on true events. But, I must say this TV show is more entertaining than other Navy SEAL TV shows.
This show all the missions and characters are completely fictional, but SEAL Team show maintained actions and mission processes similar to reality.
SEAL Team TV show is directed and associated with some real veterans who served in the United States Military.
The director and producers of SEAL Team TV show put really great effort into making every action and mission as realistic as possible.
To understand the life of Navy SEALs and their toughness in the mission, SEAL Team TV show can be a great example.
SEAL Team season 6 was released last year. Every episode was about 40 minutes long.
You can stream SEAL Team TV shows on Paramount+, Vudu, Google Play, and iTunes.

3. SIX
SIX is a military drama television series that was originally released on January 18, 2017, and ended in 2018.
SIX TV shows only released two seasons; the first season has eight episodes, and the last season has ten episodes.
The storyline followed the ongoing operations of Navy SEALs in Afghanistan.
SIX means Navy SEAL Team Six, and this show portrays the brutality and operations of Taliban leaders in Afghanistan.
The Navy SEAL Team Six deployed to eliminate Taliban leaders in Afghanistan, but they found American citizens leaking confidential information and helping the Taliban.
SIX TV series stand out because of realistic fighting and outstanding leadership.
Richard ‘Rip’ Taggart character played by Walton Goggins, was the protagonist in SIX.
His ruthless leadership gives you little insight into how tough it is to be a commanding leader of the SEAL Team.
The casts of SIX are American actors and actresses. Each cast gives their best to make this show realistic. The acting of Walton Goggins and Olivia Munn are especially superb.
Hulu, History Network, Apple TV, and Amazon Prime, you can stream all SIX episodes.
