Is Chris Pratt going to make The Terminal List one of the best Prime Video shows? It's time to find out, as the Guardian of the Galaxy is starring in a new adaptation of Jack Carr's novel of the same name, which looks right up Prime Video's alley.
The Terminal List debuts on Friday (July 1) at 3 a.m. ET / 12 a.m. PT / 8 a.m. BST on Prime Video.
All eight episodes arrive together, in one batch.
Pratt stars as Navy SEAL lieutenant commander James Reece, whose last mission went very wrong very quickly. And now that he's back home, he's discovering that his narrative has been rewritten while he was in the field.
The further Reece looks into the mission he was sent on, the more it all looks incredibly shady. It seems that someone with a lot of power was setting him and his team up. Now, Reece and his loved ones are in danger, so he desperately needs to clear his own name and expose the conspiracy that's against him.
Reece isn't alone on his quest for the truth, as help comes from Katie Buranek (Constance Wu), a war correspondent looking to leverage the power of the press. Currently an independent journalist, Buranek sees Reece's story as an opportunity.

The Terminal List reviews
Not many reviews have hit the net for The Terminal List, as evidenced by the fact that its Rotten Tomatoes score of 80% is only based on 5 reviews at the time of publishing.
Dave Nemetz, for TVLine, declared that The Terminal List "is terminally bad," and "punishingly grim and hopelessly boneheaded." Even worse, he notes the show is "woefully short on actual thrills," and that its "dialogue is generic."
Liam Mathews, over at TV Guide, disagrees, writing that the series has "thrilling action scenes" as well as "good performances and dialogue." And this contrast in reviews makes us wonder if this show is being graded on a sliding scale.
