Zack Sharf Chris Pratt has been generating headlines this week after celebrating the success of his Amazon Prime Video series “The Terminal List,” which debuted July 1 to abysmal critical reviews.

The show has proven to be a hit with viewers, with Nielsen reporting “The Terminal List” earned 1.6 billion minutes viewed in its first week.

Pratt celebrated the show’s popularity by sharing to his Instagram story a Daily Mail article with the following headline: “The new ‘Yellowstone’: Chris Pratt’s new Navy thriller ‘The Terminal List’ defies woke critics’ scathing reviews to shoot up ratings chart with 1.6 billion minutes of streams.”“The Terminal List” is based on a book written by former Navy SEAL Jack Carr, who serves as an executive producer on the series.

Carr recently told Fox News (via Mediaite) that critics have panned the show simply because “there’s not this woke stuff that’s shoved into it.” The author maintained the series is not politically-driven, nor is it “woke” or “anti-woke,” but he argued that’s why it has a target on its back since it doesn’t “promote” critics’ agendas.
