Watched it. It was pretty weak. And, of course, they couldn’t have the evil tyrant be a leftist like reality. Wouldn’t want anyone in the audience to start questioning the cause.
Gee can TV writers really be that obtuse? And correct me if I am wrong didn’t we remove Noriega in Panama only for Panama to then nationalize its banks - other words embrace socialism?
I just finished season 2. I thought it was ok.
The thing with Greer being a Muslim was just no point.
I look past that because I know that is just more of the PC injection, but too much of it will kill the show for me.
Totally disagree. The woman is not a bleeding heart liberal, she is a patriot for her country against a corrupt dictator.
The scene where the bad guy had the plastic bag over Ryan’s head and Ryan had his hands free and didn’t just reach up and tear the bag where his mouth was open, I found unrealistic.
Old thread (but most recent by date), found through FR search, but before I start a new one, I figured I’d just add this here:

“Jack Ryan Is Lying About Venezuela”
Pretty good take, IMO. Uploaded 01/09/2020.
I already watched it and was disappointed that his girlfriend from Season 1 wasn’t in it.
