The cast also includes Constance Wu, Taylor Kitsch and Riley Keough. In his review of The Terminal List, The Hollywood Reporter’s chief television critic Daniel Fienberg employed a holiday-cookout analogy, writing, “It’s the entertainment equivalent of a charred hockey puck, with the same limited range of flavor and aesthetics.” This led the author to quip that “you call that the No. They put in the effort to make something special and make a show that speaks to them.’ And that 95 percent rating lets me know that we at least got close.”Ĭarr, who is an executive producer of the series alongside Pratt and Antoine Fuqua, read excerpts from a number of reviews and said that one critic asked what to even call a show like Terminal List. We made it for the soldier, sailor, airman and Marine that went downrange to Iraq and Afghanistan, so they could sit on the couch and say, ‘Hey, these guys put in the work. He continued, “The 95 percent viewer rating, audience rating, makes it all worth it. “It seems to have triggered quite a few of these critics.” Now a full-time writer, he draws on his experiences leading special operations teams in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere, incorporating his extensive insider knowledge into his fiction. “It falls right in line with everything that I understand about the current culture and climate in America right now,” Carr said. Jack Carr, the best-selling author of The Terminal List series, spent 20 years as a Navy SEAL before retiring from active duty in 2016.

When asked for his take on this, Carr seemed to suggest that politics is to blame.
