- Watch the ViacomCBS Veterans Network exclusive interview with Tyler Grey, Actor, Producer and now a Director on the show SEAL Team. Tyler sat with us and discussed the lead up to his enlistment, his time in the Army, overcoming a life changing injury, and his transition to civilian life to where he is today.
And stay tuned for an interview with Chris Chulack, Director of SEAL Team where we talk about Tyler's involvement in the show and his contributions to the creative process. Interviewed on November 18th, 2019
Knew Tyler was an ex-military brother, but didn't realize he was injured. Thank you for your service Tyler! He is great on the show. Him and Clay are my favorites. Cheers
He actually was blown up by DEVGRU on accident
Seal team, my favorite show.
Same. Watch it over n over. Can't wait for the next season
I'm glad that Mr Grey was able to fulfill his 2nd dream after the first was taken from him. The TV show is really done well from a technical standpoint, and this is the result of Mr Grey and others like him.
For real, can respect him a hell of a lot more then most people in Hollywood.
Love the show. Attention to detail does it for me. The weapons handling and the room clearing...spot on. Great job Tyler.
TYLER WE NEED A GWOT RANGER REGIMENT SHOW
A very smart, lucide and calm guy. A Special Forces guy that admits that he cried alot when he crashed is not only a great man has is a great human! Much respect! Edit: I advise everyone to look for the documentary "THAT WHICH I LOVE DESTROYS ME", Tyler shows up there to share his PTSD experience.
A great book for you is “The Reaper”, by Nicholas Irving. I don’t know if it is the first or second book, but he wrote about the time after he left the military and how he almost killed himself, and it really is inspiring for people struggling like that to see that he made it through. He was a sniper in the 75th ranger regiment. Don’t remember what battalion but I think he was stationed in ft benning so probably the 3rd ranger battalion.
SEAL Team is great. There have been so many "military" shows where they can't be bothered to get the details right, i.e. how to wear the uniform, what are the appropriate forms of address and behavior between officers and enlisted personnel, how equipment and weapons are used, etc., that they're not worth watching. Another good example was JAG.
Amen!
Realism and Hollywood are two words that just don't go together. This show has a tonne of vets in advisor roles but it's obvious they are often not listened to in favor of the Hollywood approach. It's to be expected so I won't bitch too much. This show is not as big a departure from reality as most. A show that actually portrayed military life would be extremely unpopular to most tv audiences.
Usually when their are discrepancies it is because they cannot use it correctly due to a contract obligation. Like wearing the ACU with the collar up, or LAPD not being allowed to wear the badge over the heart. It depends on if the organization approves of the correct wear. Sometimes they do not due to a disagreement over the shows subject matter. look it up
It is interesting what shows do not get the go ahead to wear it right.
You sound like a big Army boot polisher. Uniform bs and screaming sir dont happen as much (or at all) on the teams. This Delta operator and the other SEAL actor know that well.
I love the show! Love all the characters, the action, the story lines. I hate to see it end. I never wanted any of the characters to die. I was devastated when Clay was killed off.
Vietnam Vet here, Best show in a long time....Hope some day they could do a show on my MOS, Vietnam Tankers of which their are none.
Same my grandfather is a Vietnam vet as well a SEAL at that
Tyler, I have loved the show since day one, but I really have a lot of respect for you who is or was a soldier. I always have loved the military and God bless all of you. I know you suffer so much to keep your country safe and other countries. This is one of the best films I’ve ever seen and it’s because of your expertise. Thank you all God bless you stay safe.
I absolutely relate to the identity thing. I remember vividly walking down the street one day and then this thought just hitting me "what am I now?" for 15 years it was always I am a soldier, I am a Captain, Major etc, I was proud to introduce myself as an infantry officer in the British army and then suddenly I wasn't anymore, I was nothing, I was just normal like everyone else or maybe less than that. Was a weird feeling
... And what did you do?
I dont belive you you are fake...
@@rickardboman9594 I believe your a c**t! F***ing nobody !
Tyler, from one service member to another, Thank You sir. I’m truly a fan of the show because it’s real. Keep it up. Jacob Rivera
This guy is the real deal. What a great interview
My wife and I love the show. We were so happy to see that you were got to direct.
THIS SHOW IS SUCH A GEM, IT REALLY IS, AND TYLER GREY BRINGS SO MUCH! THE REST OF THE CAST AND OTHER DIRECTORS TOO, THIS SHOW MUST GO ON FOR A WHILE!
I love 💕 the show Seal Team hope to be able to continue to watch it for many years Never realized that Ur a veteran I salute you for Ur brave service and the things it cost you GOD BLESS YOU For serving 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
True inspiration thank you for this video recent Marine vet after 10 years thank you Mr. Grey
Thank you, Tyler!!
really enjoyed this, pure coincidence I was medically retired from service and going into the industry as a first AD, a lot of what Tyler says hits home, really needed this, thank you.
Love Seal Team, and the attention to detail. Retired USAF here, and it’s great to see the accuracy. And, how they deal with the stress of the job.
Definitely my favorite show. It’s cool to see the team on deployment and missions, but I also like it when they get home and you see their situations at home and what veterans have to contend with like PTSD, TBI, the VA, marriage, being a father, etc. Way better than what else is out there...
Love the show. Balances the combat and home life well. Tyler is one of my favorites on the show.
SEAL Team has set a standard that'd be hard to beat.
I love that, treating the symptoms vs disease. It’s really easy to be to close to the issue that the symptoms look like the disease, but sometimes all it takes is a step back from the issue to see the truth.
Being that this is a Tier 1 team, his character along with Brock and Scott should have more lines but they don't.
I agree. They will always have fewer lines than the main characters but I'd like to see a few more for them.
YES! Thank you. The whole team should have a personality not just the "star" players.
@@Stormskie the dog gets more camera time than they do.
well they're not actors
Yes they should it's like they are on mute
He’s so bright and right on track with the entire health issues, on all levels, that everyone faces. Whether you have served and been hurt, or just an ordinary person who has issues. He’s really gotten answers from his own research and his own experience.
I have no idea what your journey has been your life. I just want you to know that seeing you and the others on your show/interviews give us a glimpse to your lives. Love you all for your sacrifices!
An articulate and honest man. Admirable indeed,
Very well said. Never Give Up, Never Quit!! “Travis Mills Foundation”
Great interview by a highly intelligent, courageous and humble warrior. God speed!
I wish Tyler would do another “Selection” show that was done a while back. Him and his fellow “OPs” guys did a great job.
As long as they are allowed to do it like the original British series. I agree, it was a great show but lacked some "hardness" that the Brit series has.
@@slickbomb oh damn i gotta look into the tyler grey selection show
@@w0din1 Yeah man. Only one season tho. The Selection.
Also look into "Who Dares Wins", which is the original Brit show.
Yeah I liked that show alot. The guys in charge were legit!!
@@brocklee1996 Yh but it was nothing like things actually are I remember watching it with someone who had come from the same career path as them and it’s along the lines but not completely accurate
Such an amazing story that needs to be told
Much respect! Thank you for your service and the show is doing great!!!!! Very well done and accurate!
Excellent interview. What a fine, interesting, human person Tyler is! Godspeed, Tyler❣️
Well said.
Great interview. So glad I happened to come across it.
Recently discovered Seal Team and cautiously watched the first few episodes, expecting to quickly turn it off if it was graphic or glorified war. Well, of course that didn't happen and I binge watched all four seasons, as I because hooked on the characters and their very real stories, interactions and development. Season Four dealt with real issues and I was afraid they would turn into cliches, but of course that's not what happened and it was still story/character centered. Well done and thank you! Here's to Season Five!
I’ve binged watched the show again for the third time last night and I was awake all night I can’t wait for the new season to start and you better never take the show off because if you do you’re gonna have a lot of pissed off people
I am so thankful to the creator of Seal Team, and here's why:
The very first time I watched the show I was hooked, because of Sunny, who reminded me of my brother who passed away.
Sunny's mannerisms and my brother being in the Marines, when I watch, it's like being close to him and it's just the best thing on TV, (on 7th time around),
Good job Paramount
Can't wait for season 7!!
The most realistic tv show I've seen as far as military life, excellent tv show I give it 5 stars
Really great interview. You rock Tyler. Absolutely enjoy Seal Team.
Wow, what an inelegant conversation. Great interview! Really enjoyed this and I think the show is great as well!
What a great guy
Great show .......love and respect from India......God bless u and thank you for your service
Your such a good dude .... love this show and seeing you ❤
Thank you for your service. I love you on Seal Team love all you cast members on Seal Team. seeing you guys on Seal Team made me reach out to the US Navy told them that make me be a US Seal. I would love to be on the cast.
Great work Tyler thank u for your service also Seal Team is Excellent have watched all seasons 4 times over let the journey continue.
Keep the show going
i watched all previous 3 series of SEAL Team on DVD, and only now have i become aware that this guy was an actual Army Delta Operator! If i enjoyed the show because of it's attention to detail and "realistic" feel before, i will even MORE during season 4. From his tone and deameanor... even his appearance, he could be an IHOP restaurant manager !!! A true "Quiet Professional" i think
Was he actually delta? I can only find him as a ranger on google
@@johnbenesh9663 - yes, like many others, he only mention “the Unit” or “units.” Be he was a CAG guy...
@@johnbenesh9663 he was but you will seldom see the term "delta" used on official platforms for good reasons..
Like even at the begining of this interview he did his best not to mention delta , but you can tell
BEAST MODE TYLER GREY!!!
I really like this guy as a supporting cast member - just seems to "fit the role".
I love this guy!!! His advice about joining the military and getting only what you want is so right on. That's what I did years ago with Army intel.
Thanks for sharing your story!
Best show!!
Thank you for your service.🙏And thank you for sharing. My son when to clean up after 9-11 and when he came back was a different person.
He went a happy young man and came back a quiet, disengage person
Boreanaz David Paul Merry Christmas 🎁
Thank you for the comment and support
Best show ever 🔱 keep it froggy boys.
hes right about the identity part , even as a regular grunt when i got out hit me pretty hard
Awesome show. I've been watching military shows since Combat! I'm almost done with season 4 and have been watching it side by side with Six. With a Belgian Malinois as a main character in Seal Team, it's hard for Six to compete. :)
He has the team guy look
Yeah I would have to agree
Tyler grey from Bakersfield it goves me joy he bacame the best
Dude
Seriously famous now man
Keep rockin' it troop!!!
GIJOE is remarkable! "The American heroes GIJOE is there, fighting for freedom wherever there is trouble, fighting over land, sea and air!" Seal Team is a great tv show too! Very nice interview! 👍😎 cheers🇧🇷
Love the show. Can’t wait to see another episode. Mr. Gray seems to have great self-awareness, and conveys his thoughts in an intelligent and eloquent way. Great interview. Awesome 👍🏻👍🏻🇳🇴
Love the show I was the same way when I was a kid... although no cammies at school.. Was the first in my family to Join the Marine Corps.. everyone else in my family past present was in the Army, Air Force or Navy. Had Marine posters all over my walls as a kid, good times. I think this show has a good 2-3 more seasons..
Awesome!!
Bro, you always have a choice. I went into the Marine Corps, because that's what I wanted to be. There's not a day goes by that I don't miss it.
Great interview. Made me think. Thank you.
Thank you.
Thanks for the comment and support
TRUE THOUGHTS
I love seal team ,its time,
Amazing !
Best show ever!!
Thanks for the comment and support
amazing stuff
dunno if you guys gives a damn but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all the new movies and series on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my brother for the last months =)
@Jaxon Caiden Yup, have been using instaflixxer for since november myself :D
Glad I stumbled on this channel. Subscribed!
The best show on tv in 20 years no do it about...Frank from montana........
Absolutely one of my favorite shows! I really wish he, Brock, and Full metal had more lines
Great job Tyler! God bless you sir. I was just a crayon eater playing in the sandbox but I ran across you guys from time to time. Glad you recovered and are doing well. The actors in this show do a great job with tactical movement and weapons handling. Refreshing to see. Did they train at Taran Tactical?
Whitesp44 I’ve heard some shady stuff about taran, but as with anything in the media, there’s no way of knowing if it’s true.
@@charliemike13 I haven't heard anything but curious enough to research. Thanks.
Sean Hokanson it was about him and the women he employed and that they started off underage and he was grooming them. One of them came out against him I believe. Again, I’m not saying it’s for sure true, just stating what I read. I think you need all the facts and evidence before coming to a conclusion, especially in this metoo time we are in.
Tyler keep being you
Man Magnum PI is Just a Big one to Prevail Valor, I'm same percept, always Sniper, For good, Really, be my COMRADE.
grew up during the Vietnam Era--joining the military wasn't popular at all. I so regret being seduced by the propaganda at the time. Trying to do penance now by supporting those who serve and veterans organizations. My utmost respect to all of them!!
100% Still a cool dude.
NOT EVERY ONE float! thank you!
Tyler has his navy camo sleeves rolled up the army/air force way. 👍
He was an army ranger, 75th ranger regiment to be exact
This guys is a real former Delta Force? Wow. Didn't know that
Yes
Ha! Jaws ruined the ocean for me too! Peacetime radio operator in Okinawa.😁
Sadr City, Bad SHIT !
My son from the time he was about 5yrs old said he" wanted to be a GI Joe" when he grew up and thsts what he did, became a US MARINE for 8yrs. Then after that he joined the Army National Guard for several years now hes out and has his own life. Yes, he went to Iraq, wirh the Marines as well as National Guard. So he actually was in Iraq eith w different branches of the military.
Your a frog man you can't hate the water 😂❤
He hates water but plays a SEAL. Well sometimes you have to go the extra length lol
You'll note he ain't really in the submarine lockout episode, lol.
He was a SEAL
@@anonymous3174 no he was not. He was in 2nd Ranger Battalion, and then Delta till his arm was messed up. This is stated in the interview, although he never refers too Delta by name. Its in a number of other interviews as well including one I've seen with Larry Vickers, who was an instructor of his well he was in selection it sounded like.
@@aaroncook2052 ahhh my bad. Could have sworn I read that he was a SEAL on his imdb page.
@@anonymous3174 the guy who plays Full Metal is a former SEAL.
Morgan Luttrell has a neuroscience clinic to help TBI and PTSD. In Texas.
Mr Grey that wpuld be cool as fuck to bring back the unit since you are apart of that team, how did you get on board with balancing beachballs lol
Definitely needed to make the whole team more in-depth with all characters and not just the 4 main. It doesn’t make sense being that they’re a tier 1 unit. Biggest let down of the series.
I dont know if i like the way were seal team is going right now, with the team splitting up. Clay ist not allowed to sign up for STA-21!!
Can anyone point me to the portion of the video where he said he was a Delta operator? I watched the whole thing but missed it
Jeff Walters at about the 5 minute mark... but he does not directly mention CAG/Delta.
He said that he was overseas and met a diffrent unit and joined that unit that is when he joined delta but hes not allowed to talk about that.
It was Larry Vickers interview on how they meet and their history
Real Tier One guys tend not to talk about "The Unit".
He tends too be pretty vague about it. Usually just calls it an Army Special Mission Unit or something like that.
An actual Delta operator wearing a Trident. What's the world coming to? Lol. Dude's a serious killer. Was kicking ass in Delta Force til he was blown up clearing a house in Iraq and nearly lost his arm.
@De Oppresso Libtard Awesome. Thanks for that heads up.
He was a ranger, no? Atleast he said so himself. 75th ranger regiment.
@De Oppresso Libtard Make sure to google "Kevin Holland Delta Force", otherwise you'll get a bunch of hits for an MMA fighter by the same name.
So Tyler became an army Tier 1 operator (aka Delta) because he hated water... Nice!!!
i like him, the series and everything around it but did some also heard how much he said "you know"?
sorry really i like him honestly and like seal team this in not a banther but it is something i picked up on
I hope Tyler isn't stepping down from the cast permanently. If he is Jayce and Ray will need to go shopping at Green Team.
He's back in Season 6
He is the real seal? I noticed his right arm had a wound.
17:46
Is this Full Metal? What is his name on seal team?
He plays "Trent" or "Bravo-4" on the show.
@@tonypoe4758 Thank you.
Full Metal is Scott Foxx, i think he is a former SEAL
Scott is also in the special features for the 13 Hours Benghazi movie, range training the cast. 🍻
"funnily" Andy Stumpf and him were injured on the same target.
True story.
Yes, Andy mentioned that.
Mr Grey, It seems like in the first season of "Seal Team" Bravo would go to war with one to two members they would never have any interaction. Is that a little odd for a "Team"?
Omg... I dont float either... huh. How bout that
who the hell is moaning the background.... annoying
