Default The Terminal List

I have read the book by Jack Carr who is a former Navy Seal and it is pretty good. Just started watching the series which has Chris Pratt and is on Amazon Prime. So far it is decent, apparently they really tried to stick as close to reality regarding military equipment etc as they could.
So far the series doesn't exactly follow the book but is still a decent storyline.
Anyone else watching this?

I started watching it yesterday and made it thru the first episode. Not bad of an action. Will try one more and then we shell see…

Got a bit further in the series and am a bit disappointed. Really wish it followed the book more, right now the show seems a bit convoluted and scattered.

I’m slowly reading it too right now.
Meh doesn’t have me too captivated.
Point of impact is wayyy better. Give that a shot

Didn’t know about the show though. I like Pratt. I’ll try and check out

Watched it the other nite, it certainly goes to some dark places. It's another revenge movie, couple of interesting twists to the story.

It follows the book more closely than most adapted from a book.

I heard Jack Carr speak at this year's SCI Convention. He is a producer and an advisor on the series. He is quite happy with it.

I also was able to get my picture with Jack. Nice guy.
