It’s Just The Shot In The Arm The Franchise Needs Before Season 2
The first season ofThe Terminal Listwas well-received by audiences, and the show was renewed for a second season back in Februrary 2023. Nothing has materialized since then, but this could be due toPratt’s movie schedule in that period, which included the filmsGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3andThe Super Mario Bros. Movie.
The great thing aboutDark Wolf, is it allows audiences to reconnect withPratt’sThe Terminalcharacterbefore season 2, while also keeping him in a supporting role, which can work around his schedule.Dark Wolfmight also provide insight that will help to enrich the viewing experience ofThe Terminal Listmoving forward.
