    What did you watch?

    I watched the first two episodes of DARK WOLF, the prequel to THE TERMINAL
    LIST starring Taylor Kitsch and Chris Pratt. It's a good show, the military battle sequences are well done and highly realistic.

    The only drawback is that I feel like I'm watching the STAR WARS prequel movies, where Anakin Skywalker is made out to be a heroic figure for 90% of
    the movies, but you can't really get behind him because you already know who
    he becomes and what's going to happen to him. The same applies here. You already know from THE TERMINAL LIST that Kitsch's character is going to turn out to be an absolute monster who betrays the Teams and his best friend in the most unconscionable and unforgivable way possible, so it's hard to root for
    him now.

    There's a joke in there, I just know it.
