The major drawback for me with The Terminal List was my dislike of the main actor, but then again, I tend to dislike most actors who never served in the military but who play high-speed special ops types. Overall, the story was fairly good. however, I also intensely dislike the portrayal of children coming to harm in movies or TV shows as well. Other than that—and the glaring lack of realism—the show wasn't too bad, I suppose. As for any political messages or ideologies, the show's creators did a good job of excluding modern woke messages which is always a plus for me.
