Can't wait for season 2. Best show in the last 4 years.
Facts
Chris Pratt and Jack Carr earned my respect and admiration
I’ve come to appreciate The Terminal List series as a masterclass in good writing and good storytelling
My uncle wrote the intro song (Mississippi Twilight - Trigger) so I'm biased towards the soundtrack too 🤣
It’s a really great series. One of my favorite shows right now along with Stranger Things and all of Taylor Sheridan’s shows
I had the pleasure of briefly meeting Chris Pratt while working Security for a large Christian event at a fairly large event arena. I was just told a VIP was coming in through the loading area for talent and production and to let them down immediately. So when he pulled up i was admittedly star struck and said something stupid like "you look really familiar" and he just reached out and shook my hand and introduced himself like a gentleman.
He didnt have to do that and most celebrities wouldnt (i worked around a lot of them) but you could tell he is just a humble and grounded guy who doesnt act like hes better than everyone.
Coworker i was working that post with told me later the truck he was in was a Raptor. Found that funny considering at the time the new jurassic park just came out 😅
Glad hes had such a successful run. Good christian folks are a rarity in Hollywood.
The Terminal List is one of the best shows I’ve seen in many years. Thank you. Jesus bless!
I've been holding my breath for the next two series to drop on NF! Bummed how long it's taking, but understand the strike played a considerable part. I wish the Katie B character in the TV adaptation aligned with the book, especially considering Reece's redemption is impacted by finding love and purpose. In the end, the books and TV series are AMAZING!
The PRC film market is so huge, and that's why I assume the screen KB role was cast as it was. They could have made a Chinese Katie the daughter of a PRC surgeon that extracted info from CCP bigwigs undergoing surgery that defected to the USA, perhaps while transplanting organs stolen from political prisoners into those CCP bigwigs...but the PRC censors would never have allowed that story to be shown in the PRC. Money talks.
It’s on Amazon
Yes, I agree about the Katie changes, but since my earlier reply was deleted, I'll just say that there's a HUGE market in another country that I think they wanted the screen adaptation to establish a beachhead in, and that's why they radically changed the character's back story and that of her family.
Any idea when it starts up again?
I haven't read the books yet but if season 1 randomly threw in a love plot between the two of them, I'd have dropped the show. Man was on a mission to avenge his family and his brothers, that would have been a distraction and in very poor taste after he saw his wife and daughter laying on the kitchen floor. Maybe in a later season if they seed the romance in an organic way, but just throwing them together would be a mistake.
Sobering to think in less than 10 years, all the WWII veterans will likely have passed on and we will have lost that human connection to that era and generation. It saddens me. Their sacrifices should never be forgotten
If they go with Jesus they will meet their lost brothers in heaven! Eternal peace and rest. What is beautiful is they will all meet again young and words can’t describe the joy they will feel.
While it is sad in a way, some of these great men and women also lived very long lives after going through the horrors of WW2. It's the ones that never made it back home that should bring sadness, the march of time claims all in the end but many never got to experience that for themselves in their sacrifice for us.
I have watched this damn series at least a dozen times all the way thru lol, can't wait for the prequel!
Prequel?! I was wanting a sequel! To see Reece move forward in his life after the horrific tragedy of his family's murders, and take down other bad guys.
I thought he was going to end up sailing to Africa on that boat and fighting the animal poachers as some veterans have done.
I'm on the fourth book. As good of a job as I think Chris did, nothing is better, imo, than the theatre of the mind one gets from reading the books.
With well-written text, your mind's eye is more vivid and immersive than any cinematography or SFX can ever be.
I enjoyed the series, but loved the book. I’m looking forward to future shows.
Problem is a lot of the fans of the show don’t really read.
@@KonaLife You're probably right.
Saw the show first, then did the books. I like and appreciate both versions for different reasons. I am curious to see how they are going to go about putting the scale of the second book to the screen. The book takes us through a lot of big events and places, I hope they don't end up gutting the story too much.
The 4th book in my opinion was the least good. If I had to rank them best to 'worst'(they're all decent good reads): 1, 2, 6, 3, 5, 4.
My MAN!!!!! One of the few actors in Hollywood I legit like and admire.
I can't wait for season 2!!
Chris Pratt I love all the things you do movie wise AND I love what you stand for outside of your movies. Much love. Reading the third terminal list book right now both of you don't stop giving us James Reece !
John Howard is the lawyer!! They should do a prequel of Tom Reece. That would freaking rock. I'm reading the series for the third time.
Talking about WW2 veterans. I saw Band of Brothers and they had interviews of the actual guys from the 101st and I remember so strongly the guy who said, "Our town was about 2000 people and every man volunteered and there were 4 guys who were (4Effed or DQed or whatever it was called), and they committed suicide because they couldn't go. Different times."
I think Tom Reece was a Vietnam Mac V Sog vet
JACK: "What research did you do about James Reece's medical problems"
CHRIS: "Well, I typed his symptoms into the thing up here and it says he could have network connectivity problems!"
Chris is such a great relatable actor. Just loved the Terminal List ! ❤️
I have watched this three times now great every time keep up the great work boys 👏
I agree with Chris, you give great book recommendations!
From Bert Macklin to James Reece, the talent in this guy!
If you don’t love him at his Andy Dwyer you don’t deserve him at his James Reece!

Amen! More unity and kindness to each other. We can do so much more together than we will ever do divided.
This was awesome to listen to!
The show got me into the books. I read all of the books but the newest one.
I have read the entire series. Looking forward to the next release.
Great interview he hilarious yet plays deep character amazingly 👏🏻👏🏻
Chris Pratt did play a stone cold killer in the movie Zero Dark Thirty ("Someone shut those f*cking kids up!" Then on to more killing.)
Loved the show and loved Pratts take super excited to see where it goes
Great interview. Speaking of actors, you have got to get the OG Magnum PI on this podcast!
Cant wait for dark wolf and season 2 lets go this show and jack ryan are my favorites cant get enough
Yeah, I was wondering Lol didn't think this was "New"!! I actually should rewatch the whole thing, I remember it was great!! Thanks Jack
Excellent books! Hope they do series for each one!
Great video, great people!!!
The best blooper I ever saw for Parks & Rec was where Pratt launches a briefcase across a room and wrecks a light switch, then he breaks into a little song & dance about it not being fixable. It makes me wonder if anything similar happened on the set of Terminal List hahaha!
My favorite was the one where he calls out Kim Kardashian 😂
All the prosperity & glory, none of the scars or nightmares. Solid deal for actors in Hollywood.
I burn through Jack’s books like the cure to cancer is in them. I work as a set medic in Hollywood and would give almost anything to work on production for any of the upcoming seasons. Coolest crew making some of the best content in the biz right now!!!
“Treat human beings how they ought to be” Amazing!!
I can't wait for season 2 to come out
Love all the books and cant wait for more ! In my mind while im reading theres only one james reece
Season 2 and Ben’s origin story series. Let’s go.. And I need those tomahawks. Thank you Mr. Carr for genuine storytelling and podcasts.
Can’t wait for season 2. Any ideas on when we can expect to see it released?
I hope they stay strong and hold true to the material
Love the show. This show are among the two reasons I still subs to Prime.
Never out of the fight 🫡🇬🇧
My Mom and Dad were among the Greatest Generation.
Those before or since do not exceed in Veneration.
I am really looking forward to the new book I have preorded to drop on Audible.
Both are incredible Men 🤙🏻
On Combat by Army Ranger Dave Grossman is great. Haven’t read his On Killing yet.
Where are the full-length podcasts? 17 minutes is too short?
“It’s a mistake to push a man to violence […] when violence is what he’s dedicated his life to perfecting…”

Are we ever getting a Tom Reece Book? That would be sick.
TGIF, JC, that's what I'm talking about it the return of TL; I salute, you sir🫡!
🔥
since the series I imagine Reece as Chris Pratt when reading the novels
Seems like a good human. His Kim K joke was a classic😎
This show and Reacher were pleasant surprises on Amazon. Now that Reacher is DOA, I am doubly excited to see season two. Keep it great. True Believer is the best of the sequel books. Waiting for Red Sky Mourning to release in a month.
True believer is amazing but personally I think the devils hand is the better sequel book. I'm also wating for red sky mourning
If you love the jack carr books like me A.J. Quinell has a series you'll love called Man on fire its a 5 book series
Reacher developers aren't even putting optics or sights on the rifles 🙄
I first got to know Criss Pratt as a boy named Bright.
will there be a 2nd season?
what is the logo on Chris' hat
Reading Once an Eagle right now! Only about 100 pages in only like 1200 togo! Haha
My favorite actor in the business paired with the best author in the business. He was awesome in Zero Dark Thirty, so I knew he would be good as James Reece. Funny as hell in Guardians, what a versatile dude. Stands for what he stands for (which I agree with) and could care less what the soft-Lib pseudo warriors think. Love it.
This has to mean season 2 & the prequel are on the horizon.
Josh allen from the bills reminds me alot of chris Pratt. Both look kinda similar and have golden retriever type energy.
For me, it was perfect casting because Pratt came off looking like a Seal not just some movie action hero. It's in the demeanor.
My only gripes for TL:
- they color edited the whole thing extremely dark. To the point it’s almost impossible to see what’s happening on screen.
-They mis-cast Katie’s character. Totally wrong actress for the role and was a clear DEI addition.
-Kitsch was so solid as Ben that I’m bummed he’s gone from the future of the series.
Agree
I’m just so glad they stuck with the mini-series. Amazon absolutely butchered Without Remorse, which would have been so easy to update to more modern times. The movie was such an abysmal autopsy of an absolutely brilliant thriller/book.
Isn’t that Tom Clancey? This is Jack Carr better author.
@@thejohnhend you’ve obviously never read Without Remorse.
Man, I wanted Without Remorse for so long...it's such a great story. Can't believe what they did.
Important question tho... Jack is watching Chris on what looks like a regular TV, so where's the camera that Jack's using? :D
I still like you Chris
The only thing I really didn't like about the show that's different from the book is casting of Katie. She is supposed to be a very beautiful blonde woman. No offense to Constance Wu she's a great actress but the underline attraction between the two isn't there especially the relationship they end up having in later books. True Believer is my favorite book of the series so far followed by The Devil's Hand. Really excited for the future of the series. 🙂
Agree
Been watching S1. Maybe tell the DP to work with lighting instead of against it. Even outside shots are dark as hell. I know it's a trend but it's a trend people hate.
The talk about set mentality makes me think of Tombstone. I’ve read and seen interviews that the director issues nearly yanked the whole movie. The quality actors saved it I guess.
For me 2020 was extremely special Reenlisting after having been out for 8 years. Something id never would have thought about doing. The Tomorrow War released Independence Day 2021 inspired the hell out of me. Not that I've ever been special operations but being healthy and having more to give is all that is needed. FAFO 🇺🇸
He could have played Chris Kyle over Cooper I think they look alike lol just had to throw that out there 🤣
The intestines scene was from the vikings
Probably where the character got the idea . James Reese reads tons of books about war, he picks that up from his dad.
He was great. The translation from the book, however, left something to be desired.
Always that one person that HAS to say the book was better lol
You are right.. but doesn’t make it less annoying 😂
This show was a breathe of fresh air in a sea of predictable garbage that we they put out regularly. Can’t wait for season 2 ❤
If that BCM Upper needs a good home, let me know....
I do that with my family too, lol, I'm always criticising Hollywood military movies
👍
A full podcast with him could be cool nope ?
There's a certain group of people that don't like Chris, because of his personal life and because he doesn't bend over for Hollywood elites.
There are a few kids now that would volunteer that way. I joined at 17 in 1990. But no where near the numbers of WW2. Soft days for sure.
Soft days? you're also ignoring the corruption and lies of the military industrial complex being exposed more and more over the decades. WW2, people actually fought and died for a reason-now its die for big dollars and corporate interest.
@@DrangusKahn Look at the way they left Afghanistan in a near-rout, which it looks like they're prepping to do again in Niger on a much smaller scale.
IWC 👍😎
The foot you step on today may be the ass you kiss tomorrow.
Always be respectful. Stoked for season 2. Go Navy
He nailed it, but could have used more hair gel.
Comfortably numb
Who the hell is "Jared"??? Haha
That's what I was wondering?
Jared Shaw. Former navy seal. He works on movie and tv productions and is chris pratts trainer.
Question is, why deviate from the book soooo much when the book is so much better than the screenplay.
Budget and time are main factors most times. Hollywood will also get what it wants in the end for better or worse.
Jack - please, PLEASE pass on the show film editing was WAAAY too dark! I’m rewatching the series now and it’s so hard to see anything. It’s honestly distracting as a viewer and takes away from the great story.
If only it was realistic.
Katie in the series is not who I imagined in the book, who also plays an important role in the books is probably the most disappointing part of the amazon series. I dont know how they'd fix that in the upcoming seasons.
Can we please have the next season/series less “dark” visually I mean. Like it was so dark on every episode and lacked color
I agree. That wad probably by biggest complaint. Even more than some of the changes from book
Love Chris Pratt. Hate the Reacher actor.
The reacher actor Alan Richards is better than Tom cruse and more book accurate
@@anubis6667 Ritchson (not "Richards") height is more accurate, but the book Reacher wasn't that steroid-huge. He was a large. fit man, but didn't look like a triple-stacking gym rat.
@@dashcammer4322 in reacher book 3 he ends up getting up to 230 pounds with hardly any body fat because he was running out of savings and had to dig pools in florida by hand.
I clicked on this video to watch Chris Pratt... for the 1st 2 min i had to watch youtube ads promoting gambling... then for the next 2min i had to watch jack trying to sell me his books, knives, and 2 bottles of liquor... oh well SKIP THIS Chris Talks for less time than the advertisements
I wish they had not pushed all the woke crap into the show. The changing characters to add diversity for the sake of diversity.
Please explain the woke, I did not see it.
@pollock56th Please tell me what the character Katie Buranek looks like and why that is important to the story? Also, tell me why they had to make Lorraine Hartley specifically, but all of the "bad guys" seem to be good intentioned? If you haven't read the book, you won't understand what I am talking about because they changed so much.
@marktisdale7935 I read all the books. Without spoiling anything, be grateful we got to see the books go to TV. Character change from a Eastern European to Asian is Woke? There has to be a reason for future seasons.
@@pollock56th Please explain how Thomas Reece, who was a white man, would have been able to blend into an Asian culture to work undercover during the 1970s and 1980s? This was a change that was made only for the sake of diversity. You are acting as if this is not normal operating for anything that Amazon is involved in, why would you assume that they are doing things with a plan for the future? Did you not see what they did with "The Rings of Power" which was supposed to take place in the Lord of the Rings universe? Also why would you make the "bad guys" especially a "bad woman" more likeable. The whole idea was they were so horrible it justifies James Reece's actions. As you said that you read the books, what in the future books would justify Katie being an Asian?
I have seen the videos of your channel. Your video is very good. But need Proper SEO will increase viewers and subscribers in your channel. 1. SEO Score is very low 2. No Title - Description - Tag SEO friendly 3. No Share Social Media Platform and many problems on your CZcams Channel Immediately need SEO for your youtube channel I am waiting for your response
Love how based this dude is. Love his acting, love his patriotism, love his political lienings and how he doesn't beat the audience over the head with his based, ANTI-WOKE belief systems, even though if there is one Hollywood star worth of listening to when they share their political opinions, it's this dude. He's the anti-hero of the modern left, masculine, white gun slinging American modern day badass. Literally can NOT wait for round 2.
LOL! FTR, the last ad for this video is Obama and Biden shilling for a vote. Perhaps you should abandon doing this for bucks and just do it for love‽
Why did Hollywood change the book? They went in a different direction from the book and in most cases it was unnecessary.
