After delaying the Season 3 debut of The Last Ship due to the shooting in Orlando , TNT has set a new premiere date for the post-apocalyptic drama. Season 3 will now premiere this Sunday, June 19 at 9/8c. TNT made the decision to postpone the premiere because it contained a scene of a nightclub shooting, which rang too close to the shooting at an Orlando nightclub that took 49 lives. TNT postpones The Last Ship premiere after Orlando mass shooting . Due to The Last Ship 's Season 3 premiere running two hours because of back-to-back episodes, the season premiere of Murder in the First , which was originally scheduled to air on June 19, will now be pushed to Sunday, June 26th at 10/9c.
